Great little haven.
We were fortunate to have the property pretty much to ourselves so it was blissfully quiet and worth the 10 minute drive to Russell. We treasure little bolt holes like this. It's a little rustic and unmanicured but this is its charm and is still well kitted out and very comfortable. Our dogs were in heaven with lots of room to run around, explore and swim. If you were there in the winter it could feel a bit dreary because the unit is in shade but in the heat of summer it was good.Highly recommend if your a couple who are happy being out of the tourist centre and value a little peace and quiet. Loved the ping pong table too!A little expensive perhaps but then everything seems to be?

Very satisfied
My little chalet was ideal for me. There is one of the stages at the beginning for the driveway so that was perfect for my start to do the Okiato loop. Shame the sun doesn’t penetrate the chalet until later in the day, likely the trees in the front obscure the sun and view of the sea. It’s a tranquil place, one can be as active as they want to be swimming, kayaking if you want.
