Wonderful Waves

Perfect location for us to visit West side of the Island. The house had everything we needed for our stay. This was our second visit to the Waves coming from the U.S. & one of the best rentals we have enjoyed.

Fantastic house in stunning location

It would be difficult to do better - the house is great, the kitchen is well equipped, the sheets are comfy, and wow that view! Highly recommended - I’d be surprised if there was anything comparable on the west coast.

Lovely Spot, very relaxing

From the moment we walked into The Waves we felt relaxed and at home. It is very well designed with everything we needed. The view of nine mile beach is spectacular, a million dollar view for much less! Heather's communication was great, an excellent experience all round.

Absolutely Beautiful!

Beautiful home with a breathtaking view. We loved the big bathroom with large walk-in shower and oversized jetted tub. The kitchen was wonderful too. The hosts even called to make sure we made it there. We had a wonderful stay, even though it rained. Thanks for sharing. Deb and Bob Ohio, USA

This is easily in our top 5 of vacation rentals. It was well appointed and very clean.

We just loved everything about the rental.... the location, the decor & amenities. A 5 star accommodation. The owner checked in with us the first day to see if we arrived safely & needed anything. That meant something and is rare with owners. She also left us a lovely gift. It was the little details that made this vacation rental excellent!

Fabulous views.

This property is beautifully positioned with amazing views up the coast. Whilst we were there we were able to watch the rain coming in over the ocean. Very impressive. There is everything you need for a stay, you just need to bring in your food supplies. We really enjoyed our 4nights here.

Beautiful location to relax and recharge

Stunning view the moment you opened the door, this location doesn't disappoint. Abundant birdie and the sound of the ocean bring peace to the soul. There is also lots to see and do if relaxing is not your thing! Great cozy evenings in front of the fire and all the amenities you need. Will certainly be back.

Wonderful home in a great location

This home is a delightful near-new eco house with great views and a convenient location. The house is beautifully finished and furnished with high quality appliances and lovely linen. We were very happy with everything about the property. The house is built to a high eco standard and is surprisingly warm even without heating. When it does get colder, there is a great logburner that quickly heats to area. There are large windows that can be pulled back to open the front of the house to a nice deck and this provides great indoor/outdoor living when the weather is nice. The location is convenient, between Punakaiki and Westport, with a great New World supermarket and some good restaurants in Westport, about 25km up the road. All in all, an absolute joy to stay in, we didn't want to leave and will definitely return.
