  • I felt I was in my own little world looking across Oamaru from the views at Tirohanga Nui. What at magnificent place to stay and rest. Everything was just perfect. Maree was an amazing host and Zoe the dog was just gorgeous. So well designed to capture views from wherever you sat in on the top floor. The rooms were very restful and the little treats available. Thank you Maree and the team for making my stay a memory that will always be treasured.

This professionally designed private home offers understated luxury, blending beautifully with New Zealand’s natural scenery, surrounded by birdsong. We would definitely come back — it’s an experience not to be missed!

  • Absolutely stunning and exceeded all our expectations! We could truly feel the host’s genuine love and dedication in every detail. The breathtaking ocean view, artistic interior design, beautiful soft furnishings, and thoughtful service all left us deeply impressed. Delicious breakfasts made with great care. The location is perfect—very close to the penguin viewing area. The host Maree is incredibly kind and welcoming, and we absolutely fell in love with Zoe, the lovely dog who has her own special title: HR Manager, making everyone happy! This was definitely the best highlight of our New Zealand trip and the perfect final stop. It was not only a perfect 10/10 experience but also brought us so much inspiration for our own lives. Highly recommended!
