Affordable stay in Otaki
We had planned a memorial for my grandmother who passed away during lockdown and we only just got the family together recently to have a "funeral". The house was clean enough altough some more attention to this, specifically the shower is needed. On the day of the memorial, the owner messaged me saying the property manager drove past the "other day" and noticed a camper van had been there for a few days. This shocked us as the campervan had only arrived that nirning and was only here as some of my family had to travel from a long way and bought their camper to break up the trip on the way here and on the way home. Other then the above, we had a really nice time and were lucky to find such an affordable place to stay and it was big enough for everyone that was staying. Thank you :-)

Great location for a wedding down the road.
We stayed here for a wedding across the state Highway at The Milk Station. It was amazing. Fire wood was provided and fully stocked which heated the main areas so well. There was extra bedding, 3 bedrooms, heaps of space in-doors and out-doors, and toys for my 6 month old and my nephew and nieces to visit. Traveling with a little one can be stressful but staying here took away some of that pressure as they had a portacot, cutlery, toys, a washing machine and all the essentials. It was a home away from home. Thank you so much Vicky for having us and making our trip from Tauranga a little easier. 💕

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The whare was large enough to cater to our whānau of 8. Well-equipped and we were especially grateful for the a/c as it was very warm while we were in Ōtaki. Ideally located with plenty for the kids to do. Great communication with Vickyĵn. Anyone who stays here will enjoy it!
