"Location is nice! The owner's personality is good."

"The stay at Mokutu was perfect. Great customer service from collection at the airport with our own hire car, clean and comfortable accomodation with everything we needed! Kids loved the pool, especially the spa and the water feature. For outdoor cooking there are both gas and wood BBQ’s. The hosts Cherie and Troy were fantastic - nothing was too much trouble. A great base to go exploring Norfolk Island!"

"We stayed in Cabin 15, a two-bedroom self-contained apartment set slightly apart from the others, which made it feel wonderfully private (and even more so as the adjoining apartment was unoccupied during our stay). It had everything we needed—clean, spacious, and with very comfortable beds and new sheeting and pillows. The highlight was definitely the beautiful valley views and the large sliding doors opening onto a wraparound verandah—perfect for slow mornings and relaxed evenings. Yes, it’s a little dated, but that’s part of the charm—just like Norfolk Island itself. The location is fantastic if you’re looking to be out of town, with an easy walk down to Kingston and Emily Bay (though fair warning—the walk back up the hill is a workout… I didn’t quite conquer it!). We emailed the second day asking for a bedside lamp and a little extra soap, and received a prompt, helpful response—everything was sorted straight away, which we really appreciated. There were also multiple towels supplied per guest and a top-loading washing machine, which made the week's stay really easy and comfortable. We even found ourselves practising the friendly locals’ wave—with that classic little twist of the hand—which just added to the relaxed, welcoming feel of the island. And the absolute standout? The incredible non-chlorinated drinking water—pure liquid gold. A truly lovely stay. "

"The Islander Lodge was fabulous. The standout is the breathtaking views of the Kingston heritage area, scenic two islands and water views. Situated only a short drive to town and services, but in a quiet peaceful area, the location is idyllic. The apartments are equipped with all you need for your stay; well designed, roomy, comfortable, very clean and well maintained. Each has its own private balcony at the front and patio out the back. Should we visit Norfolk again this would be our number one choice. I can see why people stay here multiple times."
