Beautiful coastal villa

“Sandi got back to me so quickly and effortlessly, it made the whole Swap such a pleasure. The location being in Portobello meant traveling in all directions but was totally worth it. The view towards Pudding Island is priceless! We had such a wonderful stay and wish them well for their future developments. ”

“Sandi's house is beautifully located so close to the sea. the views were fantastic and we loved listening to the Tui's that were all over the garden. We had a great time at Alans Beach and met the Sea Lions. The house had everything you need for a great holiday in Portobello. We picked fresh clams at the beach right in front of the house and it was so yummy. The locals were so friendly at the Pub . Thank you Sandi for sharing your piece of paradise.”

“We only had an overnight stay at Sandi’s & Graham’s wonderful home on the Otago Peninsula, but wish we could have stayed a few more days to enjoy the stunning views. The property is very comfortable and well equipped and the outdoor area is perfect to relax, have a drink and soak up the views.. Tourist attractions are close by and we did a tour of Lanarch Castle and the gardens on our way to Dunedin city centre. This was only our second points swap and was a very enjoyable experience. Many thanks Sandi & Graham.”

“Thanks Sandi and Graham for a lovey stay at your house in Otago Peninsula. We had a great time taking in the sights of the beautiful Peninsula and visiting some of the attractions you recommended us in Dunedin. the house is very well maintained and easy to live in - it was lovely looking out onto Pudding Island and seeing how things changed at different stages of the tide. For anyone looking to stay around Dunedin, we would recommend this house very highly and appreciate Sandi and Graham's generosity.”

“We first contacted Sandi and Graham at the beginning of September to request a points stay as part of a five month multi stop trip to Australia and NZ. After many delays in them responding to our emails we finally got agreement at the beginning of December and paid the points via LHS. All seemed fine until we had left the UK for our trip when we recieved an email asking for more points as they had increased the points price. Despite us explaining that we had paid the correct price the emails kept coming. We started to feel intimidated and LHS stepped in and paid the additional 700 points that they were asking for over and above what we had already paid. For this reason I could not recommend anyone making contact with Sandi and Graham. Their behavior fell well below what we have experienced from anyone else on the website. ”

“Sandi and Graham were very generous with their time and so helpful in making our stay in this lovely pointed house so easy. The house is a wonderful base to explore the Otago Peninsula (make sure you see the little blue penguins come ashore at dusk and the castle!). We were intending to stay only a couple of days during our tour of NZ but we got so comfortable and relaxed we stayed longer. The view from the house and the terrace is wonderful and it is sooo quiet (apart from the Tui who is just charming to listen to). Cant recommend this highly enough and the kind assistance of Graham and Sandi made it even more delightful.”
