About

Pukeko Retreat is a family owned bed and breakfast set in a spacious home just outside Takaka township in Golden Bay. Run by Sandy and Mike McKay, who were born locally, it offers double and twin share rooms with a continental breakfast and indoor and outdoor dining areas. It is a 20 minute walk or 5 minute bike ride to shops, cafes, and restaurants, and 10 to 15 minutes' drive to the nearest beach.

We arrived late afternoon in last minute and we were well welcomed in the pukeko retreat house. A big thank you for accepting us and for your warm welcome in your house among your family. We really felt home for a night.

I cannot say enough good things about the hosts, Sandy and Michael. Warm, wonderful New Zealanders. They took me in as if I was family. I'd go back just to see them again (they're half way around the world from me)! Lots of great tips on places to go on my next trip. Learned lots about the South Island's culture, environment, etc. from them. The house is immaculate, quiet, comfortable and in a great location to explore Golden Bay and destinations further afield. Bonus is sweet little Towser! An absolute gem, start to finish and beyond. Doesn't get better than this!

It's so Amazing! The rooms are beautiful, the hosts are lovely, and just 1km away you'll get amazing beer and food at the roots bar and the dangerous kitchen! Would anytime come here again! :)
