Independent in Takaka Hill from NZ$81

"We loved our stay in a spacious room with gorgeous views. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious (especially the chia pudding which was new to me). The facilities like the pool and spa are lovely. Highly recommend!"

"A really nice backpackers hostel. The rooms were well put together and warm during the winter. Lots of space in the kitchen and lounge and bathrooms are being renovated. Staff were really helpful and hospitable - I'd stay here again, for sure. One of the most comfortable places I have stayed on my trip through NZ."

"Four of us (adults) stayed for a long weekend. The weather was rubbish so stayed a large part of that indoors playing games. The lounge was warm and spacious so it suited us just fine. The place sleeps nine which meant one of the bedrooms, i felt, was a bit cluttered with beds and hard to get around. Overall very happy and would stay again"

"Really cozy little motel. Super friendly and helpful host. Really comfy bed, good quality toiletries. Unit looks recently renovated and has everything you can possibly need. Easy access to Abel Tasman national park. "

"Everything is great! We had a wonderful stay! Tina is awesome! She is very friendly, kind and helpful. Beautiful view, the bed and bathroom are very clean and comfortable! "

"Great people booked me in and gave me a nice quiet room "

"My sister and two nieces stayed from Auckland. It was a wonderful break with treasured family. We only used the hot tub once as we were so busy. Highly recommend."

"So beautiful on the beach a true slice of paradise. "

"I actually tried to up-grade from "the Nest" - glamping to a cabin, but the staff said I should check it out as I might like it - I loved it. It was so inviting, romantic, pretty fairy lights inside and out. Excellent bed. Everything needed for a campfire provided. So cozy. Amazing view of the Pacific and incredible night sky."
