Lovely staff, great hospitality!
Pros:

Unfortunately, I couldn't stay in Tui and Nikau due to an emergency with the apartment. Lovely Abby contacted me the day before my arrival and arranged another accommodation for me and took care of the extra cost. I had a wonderful time in Mangawhai. It was a pity, but I'm sure the apartment in Tui and Nikau would be great too. I hope I'd get the chance to stay there in the future.

Cons:

Nothing to note.

A tranquil and luxurious retreat
Pros:

The cabin was easy to find and nestled up in a bush setting. It was very private, and my whole stay was peaceful and tranquil. It had all the necessary furnishings and equipment for a short stay and everything was aesthetically co-ordinated so it felt very luxurious. It was an upgrade from what I had booked, which was a really pleasant surprise.

Cons:

I couldn't find a teatowel to wipe the dishes.

Luxurious, beautiful, exciting, delightful
Pros:

Breakfast was not required or provided. This was an absolutely fantastic cabin. It was tastefully and subtly decorated with interesting pictures and pots. But the feeling was clean, neutral and minimal - very relaxing to be in. Also, the view down to the valley from the balcony was incredible and panoramic. Tropical woodland on both sides. So thoughtfully equiped with everything we could have wished for. Thank you so much.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing. Our hosts had thought of everything.

Everything else was up to expectation.
Cons:

Blinking lights on wall alarm all night and paper thin insulation from people residing above us. Could hear their every step.
