Local favourites in New Zealand

"Whenever you ask a local where to stay in Punakaiki they always say "The Rocks!". That’s because this place truly rocks … With spectacular views of the ocean, amazing service and a delicious breakfast every morning, it’s easy to see why this place is a local favourite."

"For a bit of exercise that’s not too stressful on the heart, locals love the Nikau walk. An easy and breezy 50 minute stroll across the Kohaihai River is good for the body and the soul!"

"A ridiculously good Indian restaurant in Westport (would you believe?!), The Copper Pot does a mean lamb vindaloo. Great authentic food and service, it’s always a guaranteed great night out here."
