Cottage was difficult to find. Elicited the help of a friendly local. Very clean and comfortable inside but surrounded by bushes on the outside. Great quiet getaway but make sure you have all your supplies. Good kitchen facilities. Comfy bed. Enjoyed our stay

Location was great, facilities all you could wish for. I had to clean the shower trap on the first morning, not a big deal for me, however some may have been inconvenienced. The ranch slider to the living room area is a bit tricky to lock / unlock, perhaps the striker plate could be adjusted.I would definitely stay again.

Perfect house for the 5 day getaway I enjoyed. I would not hesitate to recommend it and would certainly book it again when I am back down that way.

We arrived in a torrential rain storm and had not received our code for the key lockbox. We were able to use our Internet and received the code quickly. We never met the hosts or needed to communicate much with them. Due to the rain the track for the slider door was filled with water and leaking onto the carpet There was a roll of absorbent wash cloth material so we were able to soak the water up when it finally stopped raining! We did have to do a little cleaning in the kitchen and reorganizing the pantry to fit the foodstuffs we brought. Other than that we found the accomodations spacious and comfortable. Good location to reach the beach and relax. A short drive to Franz Josef and lots of tracks!

Quiet Cottage near the beach

Okarito is very much out of the way, and this cottage is a great place to get away from it all! We used this as a base for the Franz Josef area, but also enjoyed the sights around Okarito, especially the beach. Beautiful sunsets, too! The cottage itself is very comfortable and well equipped. Great place to stay!
