Eden's Edge Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The lounge is great, lots of big comfy chairs, tv, hot drinks and accesable until late. Though there is no seating in the room, the common room option was better for our taste. If you have a chance walk or drive further down the road to the charming marina."

"Kimi Ora is its own unique eco-resort, and it does it well! Fantastic facilities with multiple pools and saunas to choose from, and despite being fully booked, did not feel overcrowded at any point of the stay. Guests are respectful of the peaceful atmosphere and the location is perfect for a short but satisfying get away. Breakfast is the perfect amount of choice, everything fresh and delicious."
