Te Nikau Retreat Bewertungen

The staff was really nice and we appreciated the snack bar since there is no supermarket around. The room was czsy and warm. You were in walking distance to the beach, some nice little tracks and could walk to the pancake rocks in about half an hour.

Good place to have a short stay

In a forest style's hotel,but every house is a bit difficult to find it.

老闆人不錯，可看到很多星星的地方， 美中不足的是設備老舊，我房間的小型暖氣不但舊更是會發出很吵的聲音，乾脆不用，廚房提供的設備像熱水壺也是感覺像n年沒用，…..

Prettige ontvangst al is dat eenvoudig qua presentatie. Het ligt buitenaf maar is goed toegankelijk direct aan grote straat. Het appartement is gehorig maar er was geen sprake van overlast. Koop wel sand flies repellent voor als je buiten bent,

Die Bilder scheinen schon einige Jahre alt zu sein, denn der aktuelle Zustand hat nichts mit den Bilder zu tun. In den Zimmer ist überwiegen abgelaufener Teppich, und auch in den Ecken könnte mal sauber gemacht werden. Weiterhin war ein Zimmer ziemlich muffig (Schimmelgeruch). Auch in der Küche war das Mobiliar und die Einrichtung (Geschirr) nicht für die Anzahl der Zimmer bzw. Gäste eingerichtet. Auch beim Service ließ es zu wünschen übrig, oftmals wurden Emails nur sehr spät oder gar nicht beantwortet.

RATA house at Te Nikau is perhaps best for backpackers with the locks on bedroom doors and 3 floors but toilets all on ground floor with slippery steps. It could do with some money spent as very tired. The 3 old worn couches on the second floor have the springs gone & just filthy, one person said they felt like a shower after each sit down. Bent pool cue could be replaced. Skirting boards dirty. Nowhere to sit outside. No teaspoons, crockery limited in numbers & very secondhand chipped looking. No dishwasher or TV ( lucky it was good weather). Basic bedding & numerous beds in one hot area with 2 fans going. double beds in other. $430 per night for 4 adults, 3 children was more than pristine places in eg - Hanmer, Kaiteriteri etc. The immediate areas to explore are good.

If you want to feel that you are in the middle of nature but dont want to pay an arm and a leg then James has the spot for you with a variety of budget accomodation. Clean and well equipped. Its a very peaceful location that is close to the pancake rocks

This place was EXCELLENT value for money! It's a very close drive from the pancake rocks but also has access to another great track taking you down to a beach with amazing views. I stayed in a private room in a shared house, the kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could need. Bathrooms clean. And the bedroom was lovely and cozy, with windows overlooking the trees made you feel like you are really in the forest. Friendly staff and easy parking.

Stayed only one night in the Tui cottage. Really peaceful with a fantastic beach not far. No real issues with the accommodation but the 2 ring hob is showing its age and the kitchen window doesn’t fasten properly thereby letting in the sandflies. Otherwise we had a really great experience. Colin & Claire, Scotland

The different accommodation options here range through the most lovely bush. Before you accept your room, though, make sure it's OK. Unfortunately, the one we stayed in was very damp. The odour in the room was overpowering, and such dampness is not good for health, let alone conducive to a pleasant experience.

Lovely one night stay. So nice sleeping within the rainforest. We caught a super rainy day and wish we could’ve explored the beautiful property more. The room was nice. We slept listening to the rain come down. The shared lodge felt quiet and still private. Seemed a nice spot to connect with other travelers if you had more time while there.

A wonderful retreat and place to relax while exploring the area. The host was very friendly and accomodating. A communal living room area to chill and meet others was great. Had a quiet night sleep in The Stargazer, it was incredibly peaceful amongst the native New Zealand forest. Will be sure to be back for a third visit sometime in the future for sure!

Our stay in Mamaku cottage was very comfortable and Chris and Marley were very helpful. We enjoyed visiting Pancake Rocks, Trueman Track and the walk along the Porari River. The local hotel and cafe provide tasty evening meals and breakfast.
