“Fantastic location, very quiet and relaxing.”
Breathtaking views from the property over the lake and mountains. Great communication with the owners over a late check in and everything you need and more at the property. Wish we could have stayed much longer.

“A perfect spot if you are walking the Queen Charlotte track”
We chose this property for its proximity to the Queen Charlotte track: it literally at the entrance. The flat is comfortable and has everything one needs to self cater. We enjoyed our BBQ on the small deck, overlooking the water. Our hosts were friendly and knowledgeable about the region snd we had appreciated their warning us in advance about buying food. Our bed was large and comfortable, the shower was hot and the room heaters very efficient.

“Paradise”
Beautiful, peaceful, idyllic location right by the water at Queen Charlotte Sound. We enjoyed walking the last leg of the famous Queen Charlotte track, which was a wonderful, relatively easy track offering superb views. Jumped off the jetty for a swim in the sound and within 2 mins having a hot shower at the apartment. Tanya and Shayne could not have made us more welcome. They clearly enjoy sharing their piece of paradise, and their enthusiasm is addictive. Very comfortable bed, great shower, well equipped kitchen, peaceful sleep. Don't hesitate to book and stay as long as you possibly can. You won't regret it! We've stayed in some gorgeous places in the South Island and this one was our favourite. Thanks so much, Tanya and Shayne

“Quiet and wonderful.”
Lovely hosts. Bay view apartment was very clean and comfortable. A good size and amazing view from the table when eating. If you like somewhere off the beaten track which is quiet with stunning views, then book with Tanya and Shayne. Very well equipped and we loved it there.
