Lodges in Waikato

"Beautiful scenery "

"Beautiful property surrounded by trails to hike in the forest. Really unique lodge we were very glad we stayed. Plus was the spa and lovely outdoor hot tubs. While the meals were okay but not great, we enjoyed the social hour and meeting the other guests. Lodge rooms were smaller than expected. Beware that it is a long windy drive in and out of the hotel. "

"Beautiful modern lodge with gracious hosts. The property has a lot of indoor and outdoor public areas to relax with a glass of wine and book in hand. Rebecca and Jason are attentive, anticipating their clients needs, and are at the ready to make great dining and sightseeing recommendations. The private cedar hot tubs room side are to die for. Highly recommended."

"As it turned out we were the only guests in the hotel during our stay so there was only the chef preparing our meals (included) and no other service was available. There was an intial hiccup with our TV and lack of hot water so we had to change rooms but playing a round on the Kinloch Golf course is well worth the trouble."

"Beautiful grounds and great base for exploring nearby walks etc"

"We have stayed many incredible and beautiful places all over the world. Te Karaka Lodge is completely in a class by itself! Everything and everyone in this place is superb. There is not one little detail which is not lovingly cared for by the staff. It is a gorgeous place in gorgeous surroundings. There were 4 of us and we were very sad not to be able to book a second night. Dinner was indescribable. Every presentation rivaled a masterpiece painting. We have many pictures of both...

"Beyond exceptional."

"Such a wonderful relaxing place to stay. Restaurant on site really nice, spa pools a lovely bonus. Such a beautiful part of the Coromandel. Would definitely recommend this property. "

"Nina and Peter's little Chalet was delightful. Bella and Rufus were the perfect cuddle buddies in the morning while Nina prepared breakfast. Would highly recommend a stay here. Easy access to Taupo area but out of the way and quiet!"

"Amazing service. Everything was top-notch. Beach view is marvelous. This side of Cormandel is not great for swimming though. But a pleasant and peaceful beach walk."

"Definitely money worth for the price of the accommodation. "

"The hosts are so attentive and welcoming from the minute you arrive. The Lodge and rooms are spotless and very comfortable and the view is seriously amazing!! A lovely private getaway - definitely recommend "

"the room and service was luxurious and warm and friendly one of the most awesome stays my wife and I have ever had "

"It was clean and tidy, with good dining, lounge and kitchen available. Also Ange is a nice friendly hostess."

"everything is perfect except for the latest check out time is 10am. 3pm-10am is not enough for enjoy the stay. Another issue is there is no walk-in bathroom in the room. Always enter to the wrong room in the evening."

"A tad cold, even in summer. The breakfast basket was nice surprise but i feel the quantity can be increased (only 1 strip of bacon and 1 small waffle per pax). The cost could be used for a nice hotel stay instead"

"Lovely private Bush setting with sea views. Enjoyed surprise visit from the pet dogs and goat"
