Testimonials

  • That’s right> 135 days!  He came from Australia to work on Mouton at Kumeu.  He was our second long term Tenant and it worked well for all).Our stay was four months for a work contract in Kumeu and we found the unit to have enough space to get settled for the longer haul but it would work just as well for a weekend. Will miss the amazing views and ease of living in an open sunny and warm space. We couldn’t recommend Bush Sand and Sea highly enough or the lovely hosts either.

    We appreciated this paradise so much that we came back! Now going back to Sweden.  (These Guests arrived at the start of their NZ hol., liked us so much, they booked again for their last nights).

    On Hotels.com, they wrote,”B&B med extra Detta är platsen att stanna till på om man vill ha lugn och ro, avskildhet men ändå tillgång till socialt umgänge om man vill, närhet till olika naturupplevelser och ett värdpar som gör att även högt ställda förväntningar överträffas”.  Translation from Swedish = This is the place to stop if you want peace and quiet, seclusion but access to social gathering if you want to, proximity to different nature experiences and a host couple that will surpass even high expectations”.
