Great Barrier Island / Aotea: soggiorni in alloggi con caminetto

Our stay at Orla’s property was an absolute treat. The lodge is beautifully situated amongst the privacy of lush trees and shrubs, a few minutes walk from a stunning beach, local store that sells a great range of groceries for your stay, and the fabulous Currach Pub. It is stylishly and comfortably furnished, and Orla was the perfect host, welcoming us and giving lots of advice and local information for our stay. Highly recommended!

Perfect for those wanting complete remoteness with Stunning views. A beautiful build for a relaxing few days.

Spacious house with great spaces for a large group of people where everyone could hang out together but also have quiet time if needed. Beautiful spot with an amazing view and lovely surrounding areas to walk to such as the jetty, the bay and through the bush. Would happily stay there again. Also, Naz was super accommodating with our daily changing needs. Thanks Naz!

Uns hat es in Colville sehr gut gefallen. Dort ist richt Idylle. Außen herum sind viele Wiesen mit Kühen und anderen Tieren.

The house is very comfortable and has everything you need for a beach holiday. We loved the location because of its proximity to the beach and Claris. We would definitely recommend this house although we did think it was a little expensive. Loretta was very easy to deal with.

Great stay at James house. Beautiful view. Plenty of sleeping arrangements.

We absolutely loved this beautiful historic home and immediately felt relaxed and comfortable. The staff were extremely discreet but available if sought out. We were impressed with the access to chickens and consequent fresh eggs, and small vegetable garden. On arrival the home had every set of French doors thrown open. It was airy inviting and thoroughly enjoyed throughout our stay. The Fitzroy Port area is a little remote from the busier Southern part of the Island but with a rental vehicle this was not a problem,. and there are a number of walks available within the area to not require a vehicle should one use not to hire one. Food is expensive on Great Barrier and it is recommended to stock up and take supplies in a chilli bin with you. There is a store on the Fitzroy wharf which is well stocked however, should you run out of your supplies. The property also has a jetty of its own and can be booked and used to moor your boat should you arrive by sea.

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt. Alles was wir brauchten war vorhanden. Ball war immer für uns erreichbar. Bei kurzen technischen Problemen war sofort jemand da, um die zu beheben. Besonders gefreut habe ich mich über die guten Matratzen im Bett. Das war himmlisch. Ich würde diese Unterkunft immer wieder buchen.
