A wonderful stay was had even if the weather had been very disagreeable. Excellent setup and great hosts who helped when needed. We'll be back.

We really enjoyed our stay at 5 Bee near the Sea. The location is great - less than 5 min walk to Poharah beach, a shop and several cafe options, and a short drive to Tata Beach, Ligar Bay and Takaka. We also visited Totranui in the Able Tasman Park, Waikoropupu springs, and walked to the waterfall at Wainui (all highly recommended). The accomodation is affordable, modern, spacious, and very comfortable. Helen and Garry are friendly and generous hosts - giving us some snapper (fish) caught by Garry, and letting us harvest some produce from the garden.

We had a wonderful holiday at Pohara. The accommodation is so handy to the beach (2 min walk) yet quiet. The kitchen is small but sufficient for the task as we ended up using the BBQ as much as anything. Certainly big enough for us as a family of four. Garry and Helen (hosts) were around and had a great chat with them though they were careful to maintain your privacy. We even ended up with a gift of fish from their day of fishing. We will definitely look to return for another holiday at this place. Thanks.
