Staying at the "Wow" house was beyond WOW! Mark was very helpful before our trip with places to go and things to do during our stay. When we arrived at the house for our Christmas holiday, Mark and Serena had put up a Christmas tree with tinsel and lights for us! WOW! And that view? Honestly, it is incredibly peaceful gazing out their picture glass windows. Our family had a wonderful time and can't thank Mark and Serena enough for their hospitality! We give the "Wow House" Fifteen stars out of five!!!!! ##### Barbara B.

The photos dont do it justice and there are so many words to describe the views. We were blessed with beautiful warm, sunny days and we spent hours moving between decks to take in the spectacular scenery. Having a BBQ was great as we were there for some nights when Luke’s Kitchen wasnt open, what an asset to a spectacular place. We had long walks on several local beaches and time just flew past. The stars at night were truly amazing as well. We have moved on to another part if beautiful NZ but I am missing this already, its just super special and full credit to the owners for a stunningly designed house with so many creature comforts. Cant wait to return and stay longer. ##### Judy P.
