The cottage is wonderful. Top-shelf amenities, great location (Black Barn winery is the view from the living room). It gets warm in Havelock North, so the central air is wonderful. I was there for a month and loved it. Great trout fishing by EIT in Taradale, a definite plus!I would go back again without thinking twice.

An Excellent Cottage

We loved staying at Wai iti Cottage. The location was excellent - easy to get to and close to Havelock North and Napier and also close to many wineries. The nearby walking tracks were an extra bonus. The cottage itself was very clean and very comfortable. We would highly recommend this property.

Excellent family holiday location

We loved our stay at the cottage, it had everything we needed and was in a fantastic location near wineries and a short drive into Havelock North. Rooms were spacious and well equipped. Garden was great for kids playing outside. Kitchen well equipped and stocked generously with basics. Washing machine so handy with kids too! Would definitely stay again.

Second visit, definitely going to be a third!

This was my second stay at this amazing bach. Really like the way it is renovated to such a high standard, and the beds, linen, etc are all really good quality. Got to meet the owner which was great, but privacy was absolutely not an issue. Hopefully will come back in October if they will have us :)

Simply lovely

My parents and I had a wonderful weekend in Hawkes Bay staying here. The cottage provided everything we needed and more. Thank you! It was spacious, comfy and warm surrounded by beautiful gardens. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Only thing I would suggest would be some better lighting on street numbers and driveway entrance as it was a bit hard to spot arriving in the dark!
