Description

Nestled in a picturesque location, this restaurant offers a mix of exceptional and inconsistent dining experiences. While some diners rave about the exquisite dishes, like the perfectly cooked market fish and handmade pasta, others have faced disappointing menu unavailability and subpar service. The ambience is frequently noted as charming, although service can occasionally falter, leaving a few patrons wanting more. Featuring nearby walking trails, tennis courts, and cozy accommodations, this spot is perfect for relaxation. Despite some ups and downs, many leave satisfied, enjoying the vibrant atmosphere and the high-quality mains that often redeem the experience.

There are lovely walking trails nearby, although it's often easier to drive there, park, and then enjoy a stroll. It’s the kind of place where you can wake up, sip your coffee, and just relax. There are also tennis courts if you’re up for a game. Some of the apartments are on a timeshare basis. I don’t think you can go wrong with the views here. It's a fantastic spot, though it can be a bit pricey—however, sharing costs with family or friends makes it reasonable. Don’t forget to bring some board games; there is a TV available. During the day, consider visiting Kuratau, which boasts a vineyard open from noon to 7 PM. They serve coffee and take pride in their wine, plus they have delicious stone oven pizzas! There are plenty of options around, and Turangi is just a 20-minute drive away, featuring a fun mini-golf course. Of course, if you’re into skiing, the slopes are about a 45-60 minute drive away.

My wife and I had a wonderful dining experience. The food was outstanding! We started with Duck Bao Buns to share, followed by market fish served with greens and polenta, and lamb paired with risotto and greens. The portion sizes were generous, and everything was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant!
