Independent in Piko Piko from NZ$70

"Super friendly staff with a great bar and good food. Cabin room, kitchen, and showers/bathroom areas were very clean and neat. Loved it!"

"Weather was amazing"

"This is a beautiful house with huge windows everywhere and front and back 2nd floor porches. It was very well equipped with appliances and had enough plates, bowls etc for a decent crowd. It's also very close to the beach. Although then-current photos didn't show an oven or stovetop, the house does have them, which made cooking there easy."

"Best spot to stay in Colac bay, we love it every time. Thanks as always"

"The lodge is located in a very remote location, despite of getting groceries are so inconvenient, Blake showed great generosity and hospitality to all the guests, make us feel like staying in an old friend's house. Kitchen, bathroom, and bed linen are of 5-stars clean. If you're planning to go on the Hump Ridge Track, choose Rarakau Lodge for your pre-departure accommodation is definitely the best option. "

"Everything was there that we needed. So easy to get to Gemstone Beach and have fun fossiking in the stones. Pub handy, and a nice wee community. "
