St Omer Hideaway: Love At First Sight

"What a stunning location! The peaceful, remote setting made it so easy to switch off, relax, and reconnect with nature. We loved the fireplace, and the fact that it's dog-friendly made our stay even more special."

Relax and Enjoy - Waterfront Bach in Ngakuta Bay

8/10 Good

"Lovely sunny property; even in the middle of winter! Plenty of space to hang out and play games. Had fun with the dinghy too. One kayak is a kids one too small for our smallish adult; didn’t discover that till we’d carried it all the way down to the water LOL. Thanks for a lovely stay!"

Waterfront & spacious. Room for cars & boat trailer. 6KM from Havelock Marina

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great home away from home. Warm and welcoming. 6 of us stayed (4 adults and two teenagers). Plenty of room so much space, never felt crowded. The kitchen was well equipped, large and well set out so no problem catering to everyone.Favourite room in the hous was the second living area, this area contains three seating areas a bar, fireplace, tv and a pool table. There was also a playstation for rainy days. The views were magnificent. A short drive from Havelock and can highly recommend Slip Inn for fine dining. We had three vehicles and two boats and a managed to fit, could have got one more car in."
