Prompt, easy communication with the hosts. Personalised touches, including for the kids (eg bikes and toys). Well equipped, exceptionally clean, comfortable accommodation, with a view and close to the wharf.

Corrine and John were so lovely and welcoming to us. The apartment is stylish, spotless and comfortable. The view from the lounge of lawn leading to the sea and the warf beyond is entrancing. We would leave the bifold doors to the terrace and lawn open and wander in and out in the sunshine. 2 chickens and Bella, the dog, joined us on occasion on the lawn. Such happy memories. The kitchen had everything you think of - including freshly baked bread, homemade jam from the plum trees in the garden, butter, milk etc. Corrine even gave me a pot of jam on our departure. We had booked for 3 nights, but on arrival knew we would prefer to forsake our last night in Aukland for a fourth in this beautiful.place: which Corrine moved things around to make possible. We swam in the sea, hiked in pristine bush, watched sunsets up a nearby hill, swam in the mountain pool beneath the Karamatura Falls on our last full day in New Zealand. A massive highlight of our trip. Corrine and John felt like friends more than hosts. Such generous, warm people. The road to the house is bendy, and a good distance from a supermarket - 20 minutes I think. This, for us, added to the enjoyment of our stay. We arrived with most of the provisions we needed - and only made one trip to the shops. The area is stunning. Never a dull moment with so many nature walks and swimming options, yet peaceful and relaxing. We stayed here at the end of our fabulous holiday touring around New Zealand. It was the nicest place in which we stayed, and everywhere we stayed was lovely! Just the best end to our trip. I would recommend Cornwallis Palms without hesitation. Thank you John and Corrine.

The hosts were lovely and obviously put a lot of effort into making it special for the guests e.g. lovely smelling pillows, fresh home baked bread on arrival, well appointed and thought out set up, beautiful choccies for the guests and a genuine happy welcoming chat once we had settled in. Well done guys.

Excellent location. Amazing and very hospitable hosts including the family dog and hens that laid delicious eggs. 20 mins from Titirangi by car but on the doorstep of so many excellent hiking options.

We loved everything about this property, stayed for 4 nights. Very clean and comfortable. We loved our daily visits from the chickens and wee doggo. Exceptional hoasts who allowed us to use their electric car charger, which was a relief as the nearest charging station was a few km away.

Not owners fault but some areas closed because of cyclone damage so less to do while there.

Very comfortable and well equipped home. Nice touch by providing fresh bread, eggs, milk and jam and chocolate 😋.

I didn't like that I had to leave this Peaceful and beautiful location.

I loved that I arrived to a welcoming scene. The door was ajar, there was the smell of fresh baked bread in the air. Add to that fresh eggs from on the property friendly chickens and baked biscuits. The kitchen is well equipped the beds comfortable the bathroom roomy with a good shower. A bonus is the washing machine. The view is stunning looking out to sea with a beautiful garden in the foreground. Add to this a friendly hostess and a well controlled friendly dog that is happy to be your friend if you want but is in no way a bother.
