Susie and Martin put together a beautiful weekend for us in their little piece of paradise. As we were honeymooning, they gave us use of the luxurious Fantail Cottage, stocked the fridge with juice and a fantastic sparkling Sauvingon Blanc, laid fancy vegan chocolates on the king-sized bed, and cooked all our meals for us. The entire property is beautifully... More

We have just returned from our third visit to Kaimanga Lodge, this time staying for a month. The cottage has everything we needed to make our stay just perfect. It is very well appointed and has wonderful views over the extensive gardens and lake, with its 100 or so resident ducks. Hidden in the garden is the lovely swimming pool,... More

My partner and I checked in after a very busy week working in Auckland. We wanted a quiet weekend get away before returning to Sydney. We found just the ticket at Kaimanga. Peaceful, tranquil, with just the most wonderful outlook. Susie and Martin were wonderful hosts as well. We will be back!
