Had the pleasure of staying at the happy apple for a few nights over my trip. Such a chilled out hostel with great facilities. Rooms are basic but have all necessities. Huge outdoor area perfect for chilling out after all the local adventures

Struttura accogliente con cucina molto spaziosa e tavoli all'esterno. Giardino esteso, con diverse roulotte. Camere pulite e ben tenute. Wifi gratuito. Siccome vi abbiamo trascorso due notti ho approffitato del servizio lavanderia, all'esterno un mega stenditoio permette di asciugare i panni, eravamo a metà del viaggio e se ne sentiva l'esigenza. In ottima posizione per l'Abel Tasman National Park. con pazienza si può nadare alla spiaggia di Wharariki, famosa per l'immagine del desktop di Windows. scelta consigliata.
