I don’t know why other people rated it so low. The environment and sanitation are good. The cabin is in the jungle. There is no light pollution at night and the stars are very beautiful. It is much more cost-effective than the Kiwicamp self-service camp we stayed in every day. Usually powered sites cost NZD40-80, and hotel backpackers also cost NZD20-40 per person, which is quite affordable. Wine prices at gas stations and stores are very low. There is no price lower than 3.1 per liter in the South Island. You will understand.

It was a bit difficult to handle the key to open and close the door, but it's a nice accommodation.
I thought it would be cold, but my view is warm, and the facilities are well equipped.
The staff was friendly, and I watched the pouring stars at night. It's a bit far to get there, but it's a nice place.

房間不算衞生，有蚊蟲到處飛，房間內設施也老舊，不過在新西蘭南島這是常態，我們改變不了衹能適應……
環境很優美，沿着西海岸自駕到這裏，十分漂亮，晚上能看到星星。
這裏還有游泳池，隨時都能使用，就是晚上會很冷，還是白天去游泳吧。
