Amazing Views!

The Wheelhouse was an amazing place! The views are unbelievable and the property was super clean, private, quiet and fully stocked with everything you could need. My husband and I didn’t want to leave! Thanx so much for sharing your lovely property.

1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Sadly, my husband and I only had one night to enjoy this property. We got there at sunset and watched the surreal show from the balcony and living area. Property was super clean, safe, and had everything we would have needed if we could have stayed the rest of the week! We enjoyed the local eateries for dinner and the appreciated the “sweet” touch with the little cookies upon arrival. This property was a little slice of heaven and made it difficult for us to leave New Zealand for our early morning flight! Thanks for allowing us to make such wonderful memories on the main deck wheelhouse! Cheers!

Unbelievable view, fantastic apartment, awesome

Fantastic apartment, everything you could ask for. Unbelievable views through the huge picture window in the living room. Fantastic bedroom with even more views and the bathroom was very roomy and well set out. We loved our stay and would highly recommend to anyone.

Loved it, the owners even turned on beautiful weather for us! It was heavenly sitting outside in the sunshine with a wine, smelling the perfume from the flowers and admiring the view. So cleverly designed for privacy. Appreciated the little touches such as the binoculars and cushions. My partner would like to give special mention to the shower layout, you can turn the shower on without getting wet!!!

8/10 Very good

nice view but not walkable to anywhere. There are very few dining options close by. The fish shop had very little fresh fish because of the time of year we assume.
