The house was very cozy. It was clean.

The house needs much updating and exterior cleaning. And I specially did not like that. I was on the road, so there was quite a bit of noise from traffic. Additionally, there were no paper towels, so we used bathing towels to clean the kitchen.

the tv . we could not turn down the sound

the views just wow!! we just loved this house. everything was just perfect. the beds were so comfortable and you don’t need to drive too far to buy groceries etc. I would stay again. so glad we chose to stay here😁

it didn’t bother us but not recommended for someone who can’t do stairs as there are many levels. you also need to be careful with the driveway turning on/off from the main road however we found cars drive slow enough that we never had a problem and if you wanted to turn right from the driveway you could go left and turn around just down the road at a jetty parking area. Too easy. Totally worth it. this place is just amazing!!

The views are magnificent, with stunning sunrises across Otago Harbour and sunsets behind the city. The property is big, with three fair-sized bedrooms and two living areas. The location is great: secluded, but only 10 minutes drive from the city centre. Information provided is helpful, and the in-house guides very professional. Everything clean and comfortable. It can get quite cold when the wind is howling up from the ocean, but the electric heaters warm it up quickly. The late-1960s decor allows you to pretend that you’re in an Austin Powers film.

Very hard to find in the dark: best to arrive in daylight. If you were hoping to enjoy playing the vintage piano, don’t: the cabinet is beautiful, but it’s long overdue a full service and sounds like a saloon-bar honkytonk. Kitchen equipment is very difficult to operate.

views and quirky design very comfortable beds

it was dusty and the spare blankets for the beds had dog hairs on them bits of left over sauces and foods left in the cupboards and a large car left on the property making it hard for us to drive in and turn around

The view of the bay was really nice.

The house has several levels with stairs with shallow risers, so if you mobility issues, this house may be a bit tricky. The upstairs bathroom near two of the bedrooms has a pitched ceiling, which we bumped our heads on. To get anywhere you have to drive.

lovely views of the estuary

nothing

Broken blind in the smaller room. And cutlery was put away filthy
