Loved our stay here. The house is very spacious and comfortable and was nice and cosy with the fire lit. Pleasant, quiet area, but still only a very short drive to town. Enjoyed looking out over the river. The property is fully fenced, and our (foster) dog enjoyed being able to run around in the garden.

Nice large house with lots of appliances and utensils. Well set up. Friendly hosts to make you feel at home.The kitchen and bathroom /laundry mostly clean just needing attention to detail like top of the fridge, rangehood and cobwebs. These are minor things on the whole it was pretty clean.Would not hesitate to come back to stay again.Recommended.

Great for our family
Perfect for us, the place had everything we needed (and then some). A wonderful base for us, just up the road to the centre, or the treetop walk/ziplining and walks along the beach. Beautiful view of the river, great bird life too. Playground and toys for kids. Thank you very much, a real home away from home.

Absolutely amazing, comfortable holiday house is lovely, peaceful setting! I cannot express how surprised I was at this wonderful find. Great view, quality beds and linens, large shower, well-equipped kitchen and outdoor table as well. I didn’t expect WiFi or a washing machine, which were added bonuses! I highly recommend the Hokitika Holiday Home! You will not be disappointed!
