The stay was incredible! Check in process was so easy, the place was beautiful and hosts were so caring. Spa is so nice to relax in after a day walking in the local trails. Location is close enough for a great walk to the local opua store. Views are insanely beautiful and the room as a whole is so clean and comfortable. Loved my stay here so much and wish I booked more days.
