It was a pleasure staying in Lauren's unit. It was spacious, private and had a lovely view towards the ocean. Lauren supplied a good variety of breakfast provisions, fresh fruit and juice. As a host Lauren is most welcoming and helpful. We couldn't have wished for better.

Perfect Base

Tahi Lodge was a great place to stay at Snells Beach. Lauren was very generous with continental breakfast provisions, fresh fruit and homemade banana bread. Comfortable and stylish, it made a great base in exploring around this area. Recommend Brick Bay sculpture walk and lunch.

Great hospitality

This was beautiful accommodation and we wished we could have stayed longer. Lauren is wonderfully hospitable. Everything we could need was provided and there was lots of room to spread out. The shower was roomy, which was very pleasing, as most hotels seem to squeeze in a tiny shower cubicle. It was in a quiet, safe area and we slept really well.
