From the views on arrival, to the staff and rooms to the beach. The views were magical. The Bay was warm and inviting for swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking . Amazing location and resort. The Tinkler food was really good and the coffee shop was good.

Lynley and Mike are very friendly and helpful hosts. We enjoyed meeting with other guests, picking our own cockles and oysters for dinner, relaxing with the wonderful views all around and taking short scenic walks around. The property is beautiful too. And the cookies were so yummy :D

The spot was nice and quiet and close to everything we needed to do while there. The hosts were so understanding as we had a bit of a hiccup with our plans the first day and ended up coming in really late that night.

I loved the location and the views. It was great being able to use the kayaks and fishing boat. Lovely welcome with fresh coffee and chocolate brownies. Delicious! The home cooked pizza on our first evening was delicious too.

This is the most wonderful accommodation in a special location, to use on the Queen Charlotte Track. The cottages are obviously loved and comfortable. The service was excellent, the help in bags off and on to Cougar line - organised, arrangements made simple. This is a go-back-to location if there ever was one.

Stunning location accessible by boat (definitely part of the experience), great facilities (including kayaks and bikes) and a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. A great way of getting into the Marlbrough Sounds for a couple of days. Highly recommended.

We loved the location right on the waterfront. There is easy access to the water for a swim. luggage is collected from the boat to your room and return trip. The property is clean, quiet and in a beautiful setting. The small cafe provided tasty food and great coffee at very reasonable prices. The staff were all very friendly and smiley.
