Liked: Warm welcome from Elisabeth and Selwyn to this superb location. Our room looked across beautiful gardens and out to sea .Invited to "sundowners" drinks and canapes on the rear deck we enjoyed chat with fellow guests and our hosts. Our delicious dinner was served on the deck outside our room as the sun set.Large well appointed room with both ensuite and sizable wardrobe and suitcase space.Breakfast was taken indoors as it was chilly on the deck. Delicious, mostly homemade cereals, bread and preserves followed by a sophisticated choice of freshly prepared hot food.We accepted a complimentary ride/adventure across the creek and along the beach in their amphibious Argo vehicle in Selwyn's expert hands with fascinating commentary.
Disliked: We regret not staying for at least two nights

Liked: Beautiful location. Exceptional service provided by the owners, Elizabeth and Selwyn who were attentive, but not intrusive. They have thought of everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. The food was home cooked from scratch and very tasty. We would definitely recommend a 2 night stay as there is plenty to do en route and in the area. Awatuna Lodge shouldn’t be missed. Book early to avoid disappointment.

Little oasis on the West...
Liked: Amazing location with so many personal touches! Elizabeth greeted me by name when we drove up and then gave us a tour of the whole facility. They serve home-cooked dinner if you order in advance and it was delicious. Breakfast was also excellent. Much of the food is grown and made by them. Beautiful location right overlooking the beach. It was a bit of a walk to get down to the sand due to a canal that cuts across the property but it is still doable. To top it all off, Selwyn gave us a ride in his amphibious vehicle, which floated through the canal and then went right back up the sand. We had an amazing time.
Disliked: No complaints at all!
