The Best Island Bus offers unique accommodation on the shores of the Waimea Inlet. There is a queen bed that gets wonderful morning sun and has views to the garden. We have included a designated luggage and storage area for your cases. The kitchen is compact with a double sink, a ceramic hob, a fridge and microwave/grill. We have sourced a retro table and comfortable dining chairs. Best of all, a generous sofa that looks out over the estuary, where you can stretch out with a book and glance at the herons and kingfishers.

We provide a continental breakfast during your stay.

A corridor links the bus with the bathroom and laundry. The bathroom is calm and roomy; the laundry is at the end of the corridor and screened from view by bi-fold doors. The corridor has a large window at one end that looks out onto a leafy garden.

USB portals are near the table and in the bedroom.

We have chosen not to have a television but provide an i pad with an assortment of films and documentaries. The i pad will have local information on what to do and where to eat out. Several games and books are scattered throughout the bus for you to enjoy.

There is a large deck outside the bus, with tables and chairs for breakfast al fresco and a variety of cushions for lazy afternoons. The deck gets good morning sun and dappled shade in the afternoons. There is a BBQ alongside the deck. In front of the deck is a large lawn for your use, well planted and screened from the lane. There’s a hammock too for that afternoon snooze.

Hopping in a kayak at the end of the garden couldn’t be easier; we often paddle past rays on the outgoing tide. Biking “The Great Taste Trail” to Rabbit Island is a stunning trip past orchards, rivers and pine forests, probably about 45mins one way. Rabbit Island is an expansive, wild beach, great for walking and safe for swimming; you can easily find a remote spot amongst the driftwood.

- "Absolutely incredible place to stay, very spacious for a small space and designed so well. Wonderful hosts. Will be back in the future." - "This old bus has been re-imagined in a very creative way. We were very impressed by how thoughtful and well done the rebuild project was. Clean and lots of room for 2 adults. Great shower and washroom facility. Comfortable bed. Our hosts were personable and helpful. We highly recommend this stay. John & Jeri (March, 2023)"
