Amazing stay at Takahoa Retreat

The place was immaculate, and had everything! The deck had amazing views of the harbour and a Kereru nesting in a bush just on the other side of the glass ballistrade. The birdsong was so fabulous that we didn't listen to our music the whole time. Tui, Kereru and Morepork talked and sang to us and Fantails accompanied us on the beautiful bushwalks. The private beach was terrific for both us and our dog, but the best part was Aprilanne, William and their dogs. We could not have had better hosts and the perfect amount of interaction with us. They literally supply everything, and to such a high standard and were willing to help with any questions or requests that we had. We left rested and refreshed and with 2 new friends. Highly recommend this property to anyone with a dog that wants a relaxing, but also active holiday.
