    Jimmy was an excellent host and had a fantastic breakfast waiting for us! He’s more than willing to help, so just ask if you need a pick up or drop off ahead of time. Everything was as described and his deck is the place to be!

Jimmy
Ponga B&B is a private property with only 2 rooms, but every Stewart Island highlight is here. Kakas on the balcony, view over the ocean and kiwi birds calling at night from the native bush behind the house. Free pick up and drop off at ferry and airplane if pre-arranged - so please let us know arrival times!!! We are close to Obans towncenter. Only 10-15 minutes walk to supermarket, restaurant, cafe, giftshops, tourgides, information centers, beach, view points, dayhikes etc. Shared areas are bathroom, shower, full equipped kitchen, lounge with TV, laundry, balcony. Cooked breakfast included in every booking. Free tea and coffee any time. Information and help with tours.
