We were in New Zealand for 4 weeks and this was absolutely the nicest place we stayed. The house, room and gardens were all wondrful but it was Niel(the host) made our stay a memorable experience. The breakfasts were yummy and Niels Paella on the deck one night for supper was outstanding. Niel borrowed me his golf clubs one day... More

This place is something special, owned and operated by special people. You will be lacking for absolutely nothing. I can pretty much guarantee that you will be hard pressed to finder a nicer place or be treated better anywhere. We had dinner one night on the patio and it was truly delightful. The only disappointment was we did not get... More

The two days spent at the Alfresco B&B have set the benchmark for quality accommodation hospitality and dining - from a beautiful breakfast, afternoon tea and (optional) evening meal which we loved - our "Alfresco Hosts" exceeded every expectation. During our stay we visited White Island ( a real treat) and plenty of advice was available from our hosts regards... More

Delightful, charming and inviting with a hospitality second to none. No ones perfect, but this is pretty close, Sue and Neil, the hosts were gracious kind and very entertaining.

Was a great place to start a holiday. Not that close to town but was only looking for a nice quiet place to catch up on sleep after the flight from the States and I was able to achieve that. I had requested dinner for my night of arrival and was not disappointed. Would definitely recommend.

We found this B&B on the Internet - weren't we lucky! Beautiful room, appointed to perfection with port and chocolates and a lovely outlook onto a pretty garden. Our genial hosts are gourmet cooks and the breakfast choice was superb.

The title to this review says it all, it’s very rare for us to stop in a B & B but this place has made us think about our future choices. The hosts Sue and Dean welcome you into their home and provide a wonderful experience for the traveller. The accommodation is very clean and comfortable; and there are lots... More
