“Thank you for the opportunity to stay in this secret paradise.”
Very peaceful setting. Could not get the key back into lockbox but was otherwise a fantastic stay. A beautiful home and would recommend as a place to unwind.

“What a beautiful and modern bach!”
Sits in the middle of the majestic mountains and the Waikato river, very safe gated community with well controlled farm animals, shared playground and tennis court at the end of the estate. Easy self key collection. High standard of cleaning and maintenance. One thing to point out is that the lane where the bach is located is actually Titoki not Titokai (typo in the key collection instruction email), was a bit confusing as we drove past thinking it was a different lane. We are giving it 10/10! The kids were so happy there, plenty of space inside and outside to stomp around. We would love to go back again this year!

“Beautiful property!”
The location and the view was just perfect.
One advice - if you could provide a proper detailed description on what lane the house is in!
