Fantastic stay for my family of 4. Cottage was clean, well appointed, comfortable beds and very warm heaters. Short walk to a beautiful beach and short drive to Bicheno. Loved the welcome basket, and would recommend Sandoiper Cottages highly.

Peace Haven
Posted 23 Apr 2021 on HotelsAbsolutely amazing place that I really don’t want to share with anyone. So peacefully quiet, only minutes from Bicheno by car, super clean and comfy bedding. The private beach access was spectacular and a breakfast hamper on arrival was nicely packed with local produce

The fireplace with ready logs, the super comfy beds, the wonderful heating system in every room, the well equipped kitchen with oven, microwave, induction stove, washing machine with detergent. Short walk to a white sandy beach which feels like a private beach. We loved it!

Pros: The quality of the cottage and friendliness of the owners.
This place is just lovely, the owners are very friendly and quite helpful. The cottage was quite extensive with a lot of furnishings and kitchen utensils. A gourmet basket is provied on arrival, including eggs from their chickens! and, freshly baked scones were provided. Great place, will definitely Crome back again.

Cosy cottage with all a family needs
Posted 5 Oct 2017 on HotelsBecause we're not the rustic style types we booked the newer, accessible 2 br cottage, called 'Hanalei'. Comfortably, sensibly and attractively furnished with everything we (three of us, including two teenagers) needed. Thoughtful inclusions in the kitchen to make self-catering easier, plus the offer at reception to help out with extras like spices. Roll-in/out shower and ramp access to entrance of course. Surprisingly spacious especially in the bathroom/laundry. 10km drive to Bicheno which I decided I didn't want to do at night - so we stayed in and watched DVDs from the library at reception. Comfy beds. Verandah overlooking park-like grounds populated by foraging chooks and with quirky features. Stroll through grounds to gorgeous Denison Beach. This place would be magnificent in summer when guests could best take advantage of the outdoors, but we found the cottage cosy and comfy in cold weather too with three very effective wall panel heaters. No dishwasher, which did not trouble me. Only concern was finding that some items in the kitchen cupboards had not been washed properly by a previous guest (a problem often found in serviced accommodation). Otherwise the whole cottage was perfectly clean.
Would love to return one day.
