Our second time at this lodge. The room, hosts, cleaners, were all, excuse the accent, FENTISTIC! We just loved the heated floor tiles and heated towel rack, comfy bed, gorgeous kitchen, and relaxing double spa bath! Pillows for me were just a little too soft...but definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious holiday experience!!!

Booked a one bedroom unit and the rooms were very clean with comfortable beds. I thought it would be noisy as we were close to the main road but the unit was very quiet. Check in was easy and the manager/owner was lovely and very helpful. Will definitely stay there again.

I had a one night stay and was impressed by the loveliness of the staff, the comfort of the room and the deliciousness and service of the Wahi staff. I was blessed to have a beautiful, sunny winter weekend and the way the room was set up made the most of the view. Effortless stay. Thank you.

Property is right in middle of city centre and easy walking distance to everyone. Car parking is available but $15 per night, which is a bit over the top.

Stayed 2 nights at the place with 2 children. Place was nice and cosy with breath- taking views. I was surprised that the kitchen was complete- had portable electric stove top, portable electric non- stick frying pan, toaster, kettle and all other utensils. Thus, managed to cook some decent meals. Bed was comfortable with all sorts of pillows (ranging from soft to firm). There was also a spa/ jacuzzi pool nearby which my kids enjoyed it very much. Staff was very kind and friendly. It's about...

Well priced and so well presented. I’ve never seen a shower so clean it was like a mirror. The staff were lovely and I liked the way the owner showed us to our room and did a final check to make sure it was perfect! Would highly recommend
