Gut: Check-in, Kommunikation und Lage
Upon our arrival, our host Jey, had a wonderful personalized sign made along with a bottle of wine and a gift basket of treats. After a long day of driving, it was a nice way to be greeted upon entering this stunning home. The view from the rear terrace and from the large sliding doors is absolutely breathtaking. Sitting out there for hours on end was worth the cost alone. Listening to the bleats of sheep and interacting with the dinosaur-like pukeko was an amazing, once in a lifetime experience. I must say the home itself is in need of some much needed maintenance. Some amenities such as the fireplace, televisions, mini-split A/C units, and the dryer were non-functional upon arrival. The host responded quickly to our concerns and even sent his maintenance man out after hours to try to fix them. He swapped some remote controls for the air conditioners but never got the fireplace working…something we were really looking forward to. The televisions, for the most part, were non-functional due to internet concerns. The living room TV worked but did not retract into the floor as designed. I fixed the dryer myself by cleaning it thoroughly. The home also was somewhat grimy and needs a good cleaning. Cigarette burns in the carpets, old sticky food on kitchen appliances, and some horrible unknown substance on the Master Bedroom headboard were unsettling. Several beer cans and rubbish are also scattered outside. Overall, a great location but the house needs some TLC.
