"It was a blessing staying here. The weather was marginal, however if you pop out on the deck, there are tuis, fantails, and black swans popping past. It's a great spot. Thanks."

"The property stay was enjoyable, especially the balcony and the view. However, I couldn’t give a 5-star rating due to the lack of parking availability. We were surprised to learn that Expedia members cannot reserve/book parking through the app, as it operates on a first-come, first-served basis."
