Summary: If you have kids who would like to experience something new, loves farm animals and outdoors, this is the place. We stayed on October 24 on our last day in the south island. We were looking for something new and different and Wacky Stays delivered. It is not a brand new dwelling so please manage your expectations. The beds are comfortable and you can see the room was prepared with great care. We stayed at the Yurt/Gert. Our 8yo specially enjoyed the farm animal feedings which are done twice a day. Overall a good experience in our opinion.

Summary: We stayed in the Gypsy truck, I liked the novelty of it. It was cute and quirky.
The host was super helpful, and talked us through the features on arrival.
Surprisingly, the shower was excellent. Doesn't appear that way on first impression, however perfect temperature, and lots of pressure.
One suggestion would be a step or the like, if you are short, to get up into the loft bed.
We even saw baby ducks that were extremely friendly and came right up to us

Summary: We enjoyed our stays however was overwhelmed by the rules on staying at the property the book lists was over the top and felt unwelcoming especially if you stay a minute over 10am checkout time they charge $20 per hour, the kitchen was good however not really clean the pots and pans need upgrading the owner was not friendly so made us uncomfortable on arrival. Maybe kids would like it with all the animals around the dogs were the best part so lovely.

Summary: It was most unique, a railroading buff would love it. A bit pricey but we didnt have other options. A vintage NZ train car you could sleep, eat and bathe in.

Summary: We stayed in the yurt for one night. The owner was super friendly and considerate. He provided great hospitality to our family with a clean and fun yurt space, private bathroom, breakfast including fresh free range eggs and other breakfast options. My kids and I also enjoyed feeding and encountering the different types of farm animals onsite. Overall, we were very happy to stay in Wacky Stays. Highly recommended!
