Your hosts Lynn and Kelvin Snell


Lynn is originally from Auckland and has travelled extensively. She left NZ young and spent 8 years living overseas in Australia, USA and the UK where she worked in the hospitality trade.  She returned to NZ to join our national airline, completing a thirty year career in 2016 to pursue her dream of running a Lodge. Lynn’s background means she understands the needs of customers and genuinely enjoys ensuring all expectations are exceeded. Having spent many years frequenting hotels with her work she understands how detail, quality and service are paramount in creating great impressions that last. She is passionate about the beautiful Coromandel and would love to share it with you.
