The yurt was spacious, comfortable, clean, and so cozy! The garden is lovely with a few down to the sea. The stars at night were stunning. Loved the open air tub! The kitchen is very well stocked and very functional. Overall just a lovely place. My only complaint was that we only booked for one night, I wish I could have stayed longer!

Fantastic property, incredibly clean, welcoming (with Sandy who made every part of our stay so easy), and fantastic breakfast spread. The hot tub was great and we loved the bed! We also loved meeting Benji and will need to come back!

All units come with a balcony with sea views, a fully equipped kitchenette with a dishwasher and a toaster, and a private bathroom with shower. The units come with a patio featuring an outdoor dining area. At the luxury tent, all units are fitted with bed linen and towels. The property is beautifully situated and appointed, no expense has been spared to deck it out in full glamping luxury. It boasted a beautiful view out across the bay and all the major amenities and smaller touches were perfectly on point. The eggs provided were delicious and we enjoyed cooking on the BBQ. The shower and baths had plenty of hot water and great pressure, so we enjoyed several long bathing sessions. The decor is modern and cosy, with plenty of coffee table books to keep us occupied. We enjoyed meeting the owner and had a good chat with Drew, who was very welcoming and helpful. Comms with Jana ahead of our stay were great too. It was the perfect spot for our baby-moon and a real treat. Best accommodation I've ever stayed in Golden Bay, would stay again in a heartbeat for our next special occasion and highly recommend to friends and family.
