"This is our favourite holiday spot in the world. This home in
Mabey Road in Okiwi. Port Fitzroy + diving + fishing on the
'inside'. Okiwi Point + Whangapoua Beach on the 'outside'. The Store
for additional supplies + the Claris Texas cafe for a latte on the
way home. + most importantly the company + all the memories. Our
Barrier piece of paradise, we love it!!"
Simon Frew + Carolyne Gebbie, Auckland.
"This spot is a gem - so relaxing, amazing views and the best
waves just minutes away. Thanks so much Dave, K & T for being so
welcoming and making our stay PERFECT!
John & Fiona Rodgers, Auckland.
"We have enjoyed our stay here - great to get away from
small-town Raglan & get a taste of what life was like 15 - 20 years
ago there. Fairly good timing with the weather saw both adults get a
surf & 3 days kitesurfing for Sean. 1st day interesting with 3M
swell & 25 knots SE!! Leo has enjoyed playing with Taric and
exploring beach & bush. Flying in here has been an adventure for all
of us - great end to the school holidays. Thank-you D and K for your
hospitality."
Bex, Sean Leo & Maisie baby
"We've so enjoyed our stay here - sleeping in till 9.30, seeking
out the sun, surf and fishing spots, feeding the pet eel, seeing a
huge range of sea life from dolphins to sharks to octopus and
racking Dave's brain on all the local gossip and info. Thanks so
much for being fantastic hosts. We've had a blast and are already
planning a return trip! God bless you all richly."
