Fabulous setting and everything you would need for an amazing stay.
Kineta Booker
Five Ferns is the most tranquil piece of paradise. Set in the privacy of native bush, it was both a retreat in a high-end, comfortable home and a relaxing stay - where the only sounds are those of bird song. Host Fiona was an absolute highlight. Her communication was excellent and her warmth, beautiful personality and local knowledge was faultless. She is an asset to the home's owners and Stewart Island. We had the best time on the island. Thank you for sharing Five Ferns with us.

This is the most incredible home to stay in, we were totally refreshed from the amazing home and surrounds. We were a group of 3 couples and had ample room. Our host Fi really made the stay so easy. Very helpful with loads of info about the island, and nothing was to much trouble. Defiantly worth staying at Five Ferns.
