Loved our stay with Benger Garden Chalets. The Chalets were clean and we had everything we needed. The breakfast in the morning was a real bonus! Staff were very lovely and accomodating!

When we first entered the garden we were pleasantly surprised how spacious it was. You enjoy real privacy in the gatden en well equiped large kitchen. At night when the garden lights are on it is really enjoyable to use sauna and listen to the sounds coming from sea. Very romantic.

The cabin was easy to access, and I could come and go as I pleased. The initial instructions were good, and I found the access point relatively easily. The room itself was very pleasant with everything I needed. The bed was comfortable, the room was very cozy and a really nice touch was the card games. My son & I had fun with those! On the few days I had to myself, I really enjoyed being walking distance to 'Old Cromwell' and the tracks around the lake. It was a beautiful place to spend idle time relaxing, just what I needed. Arrowtown, Wanaka & Queenstown were driving distance with much to do and lots of other treasures found around the area. The Lavender Farm was an unexpected gem! I had a bit of a mishap at one point when I lost the key, but that was not a problem for the vendor she came round with a spare key as soon as I let her know. I found the key, thank goodness, but was very relieved that there were no negative reactions to ruin what was a fantastic time for me while visiting my son. Communication via the app was very useful and utilized well. Overall I was very pleased. General photos of the area attached.

Great location for Abel Tasman and activities along the coast. Tiny House is so comfortable and well equipped we didn’t see the need to eat out. We enjoyed eating on the terrace looking out to the lagoon. Heather kindly gave us some passion fruit from the garden.
