"Wonderful host. Pizza occasion was great. The cabin was comfortable, with good kitchen facilities. We could have stayed another week."

"The room was great. The staff very friendly"

"Out of all the places we stayed during our three weeks on the South Island, Ratanui Lodge provided the best service and hospitality. Firstly, the staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much for them and the two ladies we dealt with went out of their way to give recommendations and ensure our stay was fantastic. We were on honeymoon and we were left a card and bottle of bubbly in the room which was a lovely touch, as was the robes and bottled water in the fridge. The breakfast is probably the best hotel breakfast you’ll ever get! A la carte options but I opted for the blueberry pancakes both days. The location is ideal, close to so many activities and in my opinion the right side of the Takaka Hill to make driving the area a much easier task (as opposed to basing yourself in Kaiteriteri). So many stunning walks and quiet beaches nearby. We loved Wainui Falls and Wharariki Beach. Sadly the weather didn’t allow for us to go Kayaking but I’m sure this would be a great activity to do. I really hope we can return from the UK one day and I would happily spend longer here! If we lived in NZ this could easily be a super week away. Absolutely amazing experience."

"Overall, very good thanks. We really enjoyed the king size bed and the sound of the waves as we lay in bed. The fire was also nice to be able to relax in front of. We enjoyed the fact that been so close to the beach, the kids could come and go as they pleased. "

"The property was very clean and had all of the amenity's and more.The views are amazing with a lovely beach as well.Thank you and we will return again."

"The views from this home were amazing. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean and well supplied. The beds and sofas were comfortable. The heat pump kept us warm for our August visit and would probably be appreciated in the summer to keep the house cool. "

"So beautiful on the beach a true slice of paradise. "

"Beautiful setting lovely cabin cottage private. Close to everything we wanted to see. Outdoor bath was the highlight under the stars with the creek running behind us. "

"Clean, good price, well organised. "
