This was our second stay. Love this interesting house in a perfect location. House (especially the kitchen) is so well equipped. Penny and the crew from Coast and Country were so accommodating end really easy to deal with. Highly recommend a few days here for recharging batteries!
Boatshed Cove was a perfect getaway for our family. We had flown in from Australia and met our daughter who lives on the south island for a special birthday celebration with the family. The house is wonderful and intriguing with an eclectic mix of the owner’s pieces which made it feel even more like your own beautiful home. Position is beautiful with the sun on the deck all day and the short walk to the cove for a refreshing ocean dip. We didn’t have the fires burning but the house would be ideal for a deep winter escape. Thanks to the owners for providing such a special home to stay. Very fortunate to share in your piece of heaven. Thanks Penny and Fleur also for hosting. Hope to stay again in the future.
We had an exceptional experience during our stay, enjoying one of the finest private views on the island. Penny was incredibly responsive and provided us with the best hosting experience we have encountered on Airbnb. Her assistance with check-in and check-out was both helpful and seamless, significantly enhancing our overall experience. We highly recommend her services.
It was such a pleasure to meet you all! We are so happy you loved the house -- we love it! and it's in an incredibly special ( and private) part of the island.
Beautiful spot with all the amenities and a lovely beach on accessible to a few properties.
We had a wonderful time staying at this place for 3 nights. The host deputy Penny is very friendly and welcomed us when we came to the door. She quickly showed us around but covered a lot in details. This place is artistically decorated and has all the utilities you need for a good vacation. It only takes about 2 minutes walk to get to a very private beach. The host left a kayak around the beach and guests can play with it. All the rooms are clean and well equipped. They got great views in the living room and dining place. I can't say enough good things about this place. Definitely recommend to anyone who want to have a great time.
We had an incredible time with 2 couples and one little one. The house has a great warm cozy vibe even in winter. Feels very private, and having access to a semi-private beach was wonderful. 10/10 would do it again.
Wonderful host and beautiful home! Will definitely return. Thank you Penny
