We stayed in Gore one night between a visit to the Otago Peninsula and an overnight cruise in Doubtful Sound.  This allowed us to split the driving into two chunks of 2 hours rather than a four hour stretch on the morning of our cruise.  The one down side was that we chose to take an early tour of the...

We have visited Hokonui B&B for a part of our honeymoon. It was rather homestay than B&B, with very lovely host, modern and clean building with nice interior decorated by Shona and beautiful scenary from the living room. The time we have spent with Brian and Shona was unforgettable. We have chosen right place for our honeymoon! We got a... More

Although we only stayed for one night we had lovely chats with Shona and Brian. We loved this hospitality most !!! Shona accompanied us for a little round of golf and Brian taught the family to play snooker in the evening. The whole family was sad to leave the next day, because everything was so perfect- the rooms, the view,... More

We've been lucky enough to stay in some great places, but none has ever prompted me to write an accommodation review before now. We stumbled across Hokonui through the power of the internet on our way down from Queenstown at the end of March, booking a 2-night stay to rest up and re-pack on our travels. My husband, myself and... More

We absolutely loved staying with Brian and Shona in their beautiful home just outside of Gore on the South Island. They were both so friendly and interesting it made us wish we could have spent more time with them. The accommodations are superb and the surrounding views are gorgeous. They even taught us how to play snooker! I look forward... More

Stayed 3 nights on a recent fishing trip in April and absolutely loved every second of it. Shona and Brian are fantastic hosts that will make sure your stay is thoroughly enjoyable. Brian even took me to a few of his favorite fishing hole and tried spotting fish for me. The weather was perfect and I was able to take... More

What a wonderful location, quiet and peaceful, and with stunning views this B&B is ticks all the boxes! Shona and Brian warmly welcome you into their home. Each room takes full advantage of the scenery, and has all the amenities for a homestay. Breakfast is taken with the other guests in the open-plan lounge, dining room kitchen area – and... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our two nights at Hokonui B&B. Shona and Brian were wonderful hosts and made us feel so welcome and "at home". Their home is big and spacious and the views are amazing. This was definitely the best accomodation we had during our two week tour of the South Island. Excellent value and perfect hosts. Thank you Brian... More

We stayed with Brian and Shona, who were excellent hosts. We stayed in a spacious upstairs room with wonderful views. The building was large, very spacious, modern and very comfortable. (Weddings and other functions are also held here). Breakfast was great. Excellent value.

So glad we read about Hokonui and chose to stay there. Beautiful home, free wireless, clean and spacious room upstairs. Brian and Shona knew tons about the surrounding areas and were so easy to talk to. Shona was also kind enough to give me a book when I told her I had finished mine and didn't have another one! I'm...
