Whare manu, boutique cottage.

LilyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We loved our stay at John’s. We arrived in the dark so did not get to see how beautiful it was outside till the next morning. The house was extremely cozy, and despite a raging storm outside we felt warm and comfortable inside. The power went out due to the storm and John kindly offered his own kitchen for use, which although we didn’t take up the offer, was greatly appreciated. The tubs were a great spot for having a morning coffee and watching the birds. The number of Tui’s was incredible. I would absolutely recommend anyone to stay.

Mavora Cottage -Super warm and comfy

MichaelRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Gill's place is simply excellent - Gill has taken great care to make her place a warm and comfortable home away from home. She has simply thought of everything so that anyone staying at her place in Bluff would be comfortable and relaxed. We loved it there. Gill's place is perfect but, there is not a lot to do in Bluff itself, though it was winterish time when we stayed there so we were not expecting to do much else than relax and some sight seeing. As an Airbnb accommodation, I can honestly and thoroughly recommend this home. Grab it if it is free. Michael & Barbara
