Absolutely stunning place to stay! Peaceful, secluded and luxurious. Arthur gave us a friendly welcome tour of the place and showed us how to use the climate controls and then left us to enjoy the rest of the stay. We really appreciated the extra little touches such as having ice cream, juices, yoghurt and water bottles stocked up in the fridge as well as chips and fresh bread amongst other things too! There are kangaroos that come right up close and make sure to step outside at night to enjoy the stars. We would definitely come back.
Wow wow wow. Our stay at Oikos was perfect. This accommodation is only 2 years old and looks like it’s 0 days old given how pristine clean it is. There was literally nothing that could have done with another wipe down or a dust, a standard I’ve never come across before. The views are somehow so much better than the pictures, even though the pictures already look amazing. It’s very clear why this building won architectural awards - you can see the most amazing views from all rooms and the angles in the house are really beautiful. We so loved waking up to a rolling view down to the town and sitting in the day bed (wide enough for 2) looking out over the kangaroos (who were about 15 metres from the window) and beautiful sunset. Arthur, the owner, was so welcoming and showed us around quickly before leaving us to it without sticking around too long (like some other owners accidentally do). We appreciated him confirming that no one could look in to the windows so that we knew we had privacy. He clearly is very proud, justifiably. We were able to cook all our meals in the modern, tidy kitchen. We will be back.
Stayed at Oikos and this place is absolutely stunning. There are great views from every window and its honestly so cool to see the animals so close to the property. On the first night, the kangaroos were all around the property (still at a safe distance though), and on the second day there were two cows grazing near the house. The property is at a great distance from the other property Akora as well, so you definitely get your own privacy. 100% recommend this place if you need to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Also Arthur had come to greet us when we arrived and showed us around, he was so sweet! The amount of love and pride he had for the house really showed and it just made me love it even more. I also just wanted to say thank you so much again for opening up this property and sharing it with everyone, it seriously is such an amazing house to stay at and we will definitely be back 🥰
