Great owner, great service, nice trip advice, continental breakfast. (We booked here because of the high score in booking.com, and we found it’d come from the great service and breakfast provided by the hotel owners. But still we would prefer a better room to stay.)

Linda, United Kingdom

Very nice and welcoming hosts, they got us two flutes so we could drink the champagne we brought. We felt home with a great breakfast cooked on the go whilst discussing activities around (Doubtful and Milford sound mainly). Our hosts recommended a great restaurant called the Red Cliff for a nice dinner. Room was very comfortable.

Wifi was highly limited (we ran out of data in about 30 minutes of normal browsing and they would not give us more data for our 2 night stay). Breakfasts was limited to 0700-0830. Shower was very low pressure. Bathroom was not so great. Laundry was cold water wash only. Walls are paper thin. Cannot block out the light from the common area within your room.
Breakfast was alright but the hours were short (0700-0830 strictly). Bed was comfortable. Parking on site for free.

We had to wait 1 1/2 hours for owners to return to check in. All attempts to contact them failed. They said their answering service was to blame but we had a reservation, arrived in the late afternoon. They were out socializing instead of attending to their business. Other than an apology, no other compensation for the delay was offered. Disappointing.
Excellent breakfast
