    This is a stunning place to stay. We just nipped over on a water taxi for one night so didn't do any of the walking tracks. That's definitely on the agenda for another trip. The resort is remote and you will feel like you've gone back in time. ...

    This place is amazing - I've never stayed anywhere quite like it before. It is in beautiful surroundings, the owners are mega friendly and it provided a great break at the start of the Queen Charlotte Trail. It is fairly off-grid but really...

    The location was stunning. Resolution Bay is very remote, you need to get a boat taxi to get there - they stop after 1.30pm. The ride there was beautiful. Patrick (Simon) who met us off the boat, was very friendly and helpful.

    Gorgeous two house property. Recommending the two houses to friends, and are looking forward to going back. A really special place - only 4.5 hours in two ferry trips from Wellington. Really looking forward to a repeat visit.
