I enjoyed my time so much with Pete, Roxy, and Nico. Great family, and one of my all-time favorite dogs! Pete is an incredibly kind, engaging, intelligent, and hospitable person. I learned so much from him on topics ranging from painting, gardening, and even the awesome musical history of New Zealand! If you are lucky enough to get to stay with… read more

It was great to host Flavio for a week. He worked hard in the garden getting rid of invasive weeds. We had a lot of laughs and he is a fun loving person who is interested in everything that life has to offer, even squid fishing in which he caught one on his first try. He made a training programme for me and was very respectful and tidy. nice guy!

I enjoy a lot the stay, having good conversations at the dinner time, sharing culture, experiences, good food that Pete cooks and a lot of fun. Also we went fishing and I accompanied Pete to his windsurfing… read more

Michel is an excellent person and an amazing craftsman. He completed a number of building / carpentry projects to the highest standard and I was very lucky to have him stay with me. He is a great designer and also very willing to do the hard and dirty work. He can put his hand to anything and mastered the pottery tasks that we put to him. Also he… read more

We absolutely loved our stay with Pete and Roxy! He made us feel so welcome and we had so much fun. We enjoyed many delicious home cooked meals, wine and lots of laughs. Working in the shop was fun, and Kirsten is absolutely gorgeous. We also met Lizzy, Pete's mum, who is really lovely. Pete's place was also lovely, with everything you would need.… read more

Pete was the most fantastic host! We had the best time staying with him, Nico and Roxy. Beautiful house, amazing home cooked meals with veggies from his sweet sweet soil. Felt really at home in Waiheke due to Pete's hospitality. Pete and his mum are angels and we will be back to visit soon. Thanks for everything, you're a diamond!

Staying with Peter and his family has been my very first WorkAway experience and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better host if I designed the experience myself! Everyone is so incredibly considerate and accomodating and although there's nothing in it for them, you just feel like they constantly have your very best interests at heart, every… read more

Had a wonderful stay on Waiheke working in Pete's studio. Both Pete and Kirsten are super laid back and generous. They included me in all sorts of adventures and family gatherings. Kirsten went on runs with me and took me swimming and on heaps of other adventures, she is one cool gal who I miss dearly! Pete's mom is also wonderful and took great… read more

I had a great time on the beautiful Waiheke island with Pete. I was originally planning on staying for a few weeks but enjoyed my time so much that I ended up staying for 5 months. I truly felt like part of the family and it was a great experience for my first workaway. I have prior experience with ceramics and a NZ work visa so I was able to earn… read more

Im glad I gave this workaway experience a chance, due to the other review. I was met off the ferry by Lizzy (Petes mum), she is super lovely and made me feel so so welcome. Pete is really accommodating and will help you out when you ask! His cooking is awesome and being able to pick from the garden (tomatoes, capsicum, basil, eggs, green beans… read more

Some hosts treat you like an employee while others offer a cultural exchange. Unfortunately, I was treated more like an employee here. Instead of trying to make my time on Waiheke fun and memorable, Pete wanted to get as much work out of me as possible. He would go to Auckland for arts festivals, concerts, or would leave to go fishing and get gin… read more
