Great port in a storm
We stayed at Nikau Cottage while cyclone Gabrielle was battering New Zealand. We were very comfortable in this lovely cottage in spite of the storm. We really appreciated Keith’s communications, letting us know that we could get there in spite of the weather. Keith and Rebecca were great hosts, suggesting things to do and providing a route to maximize our site seeing. Kitchen was well equipped. We prepared full meals there. Once the hurricane subsided, we enjoyed several local beaches and road side fruit stands. Sandra and Joe

Nice cottage
Cute little cottage, beautifully decorated. Comfortable bed and lovely bathroom. It's quite private, despite being immediately beside the property owner's home, however I did hear the neighbours at night (only until about 9:30pm though, so very reasonable). There is info available on local hikes and restaurants, but perhaps more info could be provided (eg. Where fridge is located, whether water is safe to drink). Overall, a very nice cottage at a very reasonable price.

Cosy Cottage
In horrid weather we checked in late to Nikau Cottage. We were grateful for the owner's thoughtfulness in making our entry easier with a light left on and the key handy. Thank you! The cottage is cute and cosy, and more spacious than we had anticipated. Unfortunately for us the weather was so awful we couldn't comment on the actual location in relation to the water. I'm sure it is fabulous. Worked very well for us visiting friends in the area. We would definitely stay again.

The best cottage for a couple
We stayed here for a wedding close by and absolutely loved it. It was such a cute little place with everything we needed and more. It was cosy and inviting. The check in/out process is easy and the host has great communication. Overall a great stay!
