Book a Top Tahāroa Motel

"Was brilliant from start to finish! Loved the location, the privacy, the modern and very clean cottage! I’ll be back again soon and next time bring my daughter so we can go for a kayak together. A"

"Great place to stay. Warm, clean and beautiful views. Would love to stay again!"

"Excellent location for visiting the caves. Cabins are well maintained as are the other facilities. Walkable to general store and up to the cave visitor centre. The gentleman on reception was exceptionally welcoming and helpful. "

"What a lovely little place, chatted to some locals and it was close to the people I was visiting. It has everything I needed and Raglan is beautiful. Thanks Amanda "

"Nice place just around the corner from the Waitomo caves experience with the 100 meter absail...There were a fair number of steps up to our room but the room was nice and the water pressure was good. We kept warm on a July night and slept well. The breakfast was a fine continental breakfast and checkout was quick. We only stayed one night because of our schedule but could have easily enjoyed a couple more!"

"Absolutely loved our stay, such a beautiful home in an incredible location. We had everything we needed and everything was clean and tidy. Always a win when you can have a hot spa after a surf too. 10/10 Would recommend "

"I lived my time here. My ensuite villa was clean, comfortable, and convenient. I really liked my time here. The little farm on the side of the property is adorable. "

"Property was just as described and the owners were amazing hosts. Especially loved the hand drawn map of the property, with instructions on how to reach the beach via the nature track.The cottage has the most wonderful views and it was lovely to wake up to the sound of nature (ocean and birds).Close to the main town of Raglan and the exceptional cafes and eateries.Lots of nature based explorations to be had on the property and around Raglan.I cannot thank the property owners enough for a chance to stay at this idyllic property.If I am ever back in Raglan, I would book again in a heartbeat!"

"If you are going to visit the glow worms in the caves, this is the best place to stay as you can get to see your own personal glow worms at the sink hole a couple of minutes walk from your bed! A fantastic addition to the overall experience! There are also other things to see on the farm. Angus is a smashing host who loves to share!"
