Comfortable and well-equipped cabin in beautiful surroundings. Quiet and family-friendly. We especially enjoyed the glow worm cave just a short walk away.

A special experience and a superb setting. One night was not enough; a minimum of three nights is needed to be able to appreciate what the Lodge has on offer, and to fully relax.

The location is very convenient, and the property has been newly renovated. The interior is clean, modern, and stylish. The staff were friendly and even offered us vouchers for local activities, which was a lovely surprise.
There were only two minor drawbacks. First, in our room type, all the bedrooms were upstairs while the only toilet was downstairs, which was a little inconvenient, especially at night. Second, the tea bags provided weren't very fragrant.
Other than these small issues,...

I had a room where 3 of the 5 walls were full windows to the walkway to all the rooms. This gave a lot of light and good views, but also meant anyone could see into the room, so I mostly just shut all the curtains the whole time. Parking was very good, and the room was very large. Shower in bathroom was set up as a jacuzzi-shower, so there wasn't walls keeping the water in the tub very well. Staff was friendly and provided amenities even upon late arrival

Loved the private outside hot tub, completely private . Plenty of water to fill it between uses. The room is spacious. The bathroom was modern and the shower impeccable with glass enclosure. We always bring the our own coffee machine but there were other options for coffee. It was close to all amenities and attractions.
The staff was super accommodating. I did t use the stove but fridge was spacious for our needs.

I was most impressed with the hotel staff. They were friendly, very accommodating and handled special requests quickly and without hesitation. We had a really nice stay there and they had two hot tubs and a pool that we took advantage of.

The room was well thought out and worked well for us. The kitchenette was nice, though we didn't cook. The bathroom seemed like it had been updated recently. Our only issue was that it was quite cold in the room and we couldn't make the heat work. There is on-site parking which is always helpful.

We stayed in the white room with the purple/plum attached bathroom that included a private patio.
This room was like time-traveling into 40s-60s luxury. Beautiful moldings. Gorgeous built-in cabinets and shelving.
The place isn't perfect, but it was impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed the stay, and if you're a fan of mid-century deco, you'll love staying in this room.

Nice space for couples or families. Parking is free and directly in front of the unit. Laundry room had just one washer and one dryer to share with others so the wait was long but still appreciated. No limit on hours of operation. We loved the private heated pool/tub.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was very cozy and the beds were comfortable. Loved the bedroom loft. Great parking available right by the door of our room. Would stay here again!

We had a nice stay. Very convenient. Clean room. Comfy bed, the most comfortable of our stay in NZ! Balcony room was updated. The smells was pretty bad outside so didn't use the balcony but i wanted a nicer room so it was worth it. The a/c would turn off in the middle of the evening on us. The entire hotel staff is so kind and helpful. Walkable to everything in town.
