Kahikinui Forest Reserve Holidays from NZ$3,418

Room, staff, property was acceptable for the price and its great location. One major issue. There’s a house that is next to the parking lot which has several dogs locked in a cage that bark and howl non stop day and night. It’s super annoying and definitely played a role in our ability to relax by the pool and our balcony. We finally spoke up after several days and we were moved to a different property which was amazing.

The room was great!! Super spacious, comfortable, and affordable. The staff were nice as well.

The view 😍🌅🐢🐳 incredible is right. We were originally in a partial ocean view (701), it was windy the week we were there, the first night was awful, I thought the sliding glass door was going to shatter and/or the building was going to blow away. I asked to be moved to a lower floor due to the wind, the gal at the front desk was nice and said she could get us a front facing view the next day so we took it. The second night in 701 was not building-blow-away bad but it was still windy, once we moved to the front facing, it took our vacation from good to epic. Oh that view, you literally felt like you were above the water. We watched so many whales jump from our balcony and a few turtles come hang on the beach. The beach was small and always wet but still a great little beach there. Both rooms were clean, the grounds are nothing to speak of but well maintained, the hot tub was a warm tub however they were working on it while we were there and on our last night the Jets were on, the pool was not heated and colder than the ocean. They have great sun loungers that were perfect for relaxing and whale watching. Oh and the BBQ's were great too and a fun hang out/meet other people area while making dinner. All in all it was a great stay for a budget place, I would stay here again. If you are looking for more amenities and nicer grounds with plants, ponds, restaurants and more this wouldn't be your place but if you want a right on the water experience, stay here!

The view was absolutely beautiful!!! Staff was very friendly and took care of our needs and concerns.

Room and property was amazing!
