I had a perfect first stay on my first night in NZ at the beginning of some 18 weeks. Talked at length with Warren about our shared interest in recreational and sports aviation. And other topics with valuable tips for my vacation in NZ. Goes without saying that I enjoyed everything else, the location, the room, and other facilities.

The room we stayed in was clean and comfortable, the bed was also very comfortable. The location was close to town and those are the reasons we have stayed here several times over the last year or so.

Beautifully presented, so damn cute. I loved the little touches throughout the cottage. Check in was easy. the kitchen has everything needed, and cupboards full of basics, which was helpful when forgetting items at PaknSave. Cottage is warm during winter, perfect location with a beautiful view of the sea, which btw is the best place to view sunsets. Highly recommend.

Hassle-free, easy check-in. One of the beds was in a separate room (the main living room) which worked well for our group. Spacious and plenty of room, as well as a full kitchenette. Great place to stay after going to the Pinnacles!

Carmel and Siegfried were great hosts and also very lovely people. The rooms were spotless, the beds comfy and the bathroom very thoughtfully kitted out with everything you could need. We really enjoyed the breakfast, especially Siegfried’s homemade jam! The location of the house also allows for stunning sunsets and views all day long, and the garden was beautiful. We will definitely be back😊

Breakfast was offered but I declined as I was not a breakfast man. The location was awesome. Views were beautiful. The birds were singing all day long. Lodge hid itself within the beautify hills of Thames but only and yet 30 seconds later you're in the city. Depending on where you stand the view could be the seashore through the big trees or the lush hills and lovely bush. Easy access to my room. Warren and Jeweline (hosts) were very welcoming.

The location is wonderful. I liked looking over to the beach. It was a handy walk into town as well. I loved the old images of Thames on the walls and artefacts from the original cottage before renovation. Very clean and loved the “old time” elements such as the bed pan and old iron.

The plants in the park are lovely, as is the sound of the trickling stream. It’s a good location close to the Coromandel walks eg The Pinnacles. The showers, toilets and kitchen were kept extremely clean. You can park on site. I cannot comment on the TV lounge/pool as I didn’t use them. The hosts were kind, warm and attentive.
