If you want to get away from city life, breathe in fresh air, you love peace and calm this is the place you want to be. We spent a long weekend enjoying every minute the silence around the accomodation was only broken by the sound of nature, birds chirping, water running in stream after the rain. Ilona (hostess) very welcoming and extremely friendly. The house was nice and tidy had all the kitchen amenities we needed, bathroom clean with extra towels, specious room with comfy bed ,outdoor tables we could enjoy morning and night. Medlands beach just around the corner, lots of outdoor activities if you are an outdoor person. Will definitely come back again! Thank you Ilona😍

Great location, spacious and very private. The hostess was really friendly and welcoming. Was readily available when we needed something. Kitchen and bathroom have everything you need and it was clean.

If you are drawn to nature, this property is a paradise – it is beautiful and it is very special. Magnificent huge old trees, a small well-wooded hill, a winding creek, a pond with resident teal and frogs. Each day we saw kaka, tui, a pair of weka and kingfisher. The night sky was incredible. It was a joy to be able to stay here. Many of the beaches are places of great natural beauty. Ilona (hostess) is lovely - very friendly and could not have been more helpful. She even produced a vase of flowers and candle for our evening BBQ (a private area adjoining the unit). The bungalow is spacious, the bed extremely comfortable and the kitchen well equipped with crockery / cutlery etc, fridge and gas stove. It is convenient to the airport (perhaps a 7-8min. drive). There is no mobile phone connectivity on the property, but one only has to go a short way up the road to get signal. The price of groceries is higher than on the mainland, so consider taking some with you.

The host and Craig are very very good! The host she was giving us quite warmly welcome~ Offer us everything we need and even decorated the room with flowers for us, that was so lovely ~ Craig is very kind to be our driver and guided us around this island, took pictures and video for us~ The living environment is tidy, quiet and privately. We are very happy about this experience and it was lucky I booked this accommodation! We saw a beautiful starry sky in Aotea Eco Bungalows. Perfect! Highly recommend!! : - D

The surrounding and the serenity was the best for this accommodation. Location, close to Medland beach, 1 KM walk. Claris Airport within 5 Kms.

The greeting when we arrived. The tranquil setting.
