About the host
Hosted by Annie Hormann
My late husband and I have been sailing half around the world ( with a 14 years stop-over in Tahiti and its islands) to find this quiet place in the heart of the Bay of Islands.
My husband offered our Boat" Kleiner Baer II" for charter and I managed a small resort hotel on Moorea. We purchased Aimeo Cottage in 1991 and have enjoyed hosting guests from all over the world since 1992.
I like swimming, sailing, golfing, gardening, reading, good food and wine together with friends. I would be happy to welcome you here at the Aimeo!
