The cottage is accurately named as it does indeed have an awesome view. The owner met us as we arrived and provided a nice orientation. She was upfront that it's not five-star accommodation, but we did not expect that in a place that is really off the grid (which is part of the charm). The cottage is nicely located within easy walking distance of a sundries store/cafe and - nice surprise - has very good wifi. You can spend a lot of time on the wrap-around deck looking our over and through the trees to the bay, the sunset is gorgeous and this is a wonderful place to decompress for a few days.

The lodge was a perfect setting for our stay, we fortunately had pretty awesome weather so could make good use of the lovely outdoor decks. Our apartment was clean and well set up. Fiona, our host, was friendly, helpful and very accommodating. The lodge itself is just a short walk from Tryphena Bay, with an easy visit to the pub, cafe and local store.

The Island, second biggest in Aotearoa New Zealand is like stepping back a few years but everyone has solar power , gas or generator. A beautiful island . . .sorry I can't write more. Booking. com . . please contact me . (I've tried to unsuccessfully to contact you. Why not??) I require a refund of $400. The only night spent at Eco Bungalows was barely worth $50 - so miserable were we there due to the coldness and the dim lighting. The cottage was gloomy. The hostess, was charming and helpful but the telephone number was not working, though I tried many times leading up to our stay.

A lovely forest covered island with some great beaches and nice walks including one to natural hot pools. Shops all have limited opening hours and some of the local people were not the friendliest, although many were. Restaurants were not common and many were closed during our stay. The roads were good to drive on and a rental car is an essential to get places and the rates are very reasonable. There was a lack of birds and bird noise all over the island which may be due to a large number of rats. Some good swimming beaches along with some short, long, hard and easy walks through some great native bush. Medlands beach was a favourite stop for a good walk and a swim.

The hot springs were amazing - especially in the very top pool that wasn't too hot. Mermaid pools are a must. Beaches were amazing. Highly recommend Great Barrier Lodge for eating - hands down the best place we ate, great food and service unlike most of the other places on the island. Driving on the narrow roads was a bit hairy at times with the locals driving very fast.
