"Chilled-out place in a quiet little village — super peaceful and comfortable. Only 30 mins to Turoa and 45 mins to Whakapapa, so it’s a great base if you’re heading up the mountain. Great value and perfect for a relaxed trip!

"We were up at Waimarino to ski for the week with our two young children, the house was a perfect little bolt hole when weren’t on the mountain!Our only issues were that while there was a log burner and wood for it, unfortunately the wood was all rather damp and there was no way to chop any smaller kindling to even get the fire going, thank goodness for the heat pump, so we were all sorted! Also the Freeview box lost signal on our last night, but no biggie, we were all ready for an early night by then!"
"Four of my family with little kids enjoyed our stay in much. The location is so easy to up to Whakapapa. Breakfast basket was highlight of the morning as good portion and quality are provided to start your day. We love to stay over the days here just would like to "
"We enjoyed our overnight stay. The facilities were sufficient and the online check in worked for us. The wifi was a bit intermittent though unfortunately. "
"The house layout was great! A couple of small niggles that we’ve sent to the owner, but I’m sure they’ll be addressed before the next visitor. Bring extra blankets, as it can get cold!"
