Top Karangahake Hotel Reviews

Te Aroha Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was clean and compact. We were late arriving so the heat pump had been put on warm the room for our arrival. There was a large powerful microwave which was great to heat our late supermarket meal. Nice big comfortable bed with comfy pillows. We were given a generous amount of milk in glass bottles which was appreciated. Great room for our short stay 👌"

Absolute beachfront! Sleeps 12+ Built 2011

10/10 Excellent

"We had such a relaxed 3-night stay at this beachfront property. The photos really don’t do the house justice. It’s much bigger and more spacious than it looks online, with plenty of room to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The beach view is absolutely beautiful. Such a pleasure to watch the sunrise from the deck/inside. James was fantastic to communicate with from start to finish. His communication was excellent and everything was really straightforward and easy throughout our stay.The kitchen is also really well stocked with everything you could need, which made it easy to settle in and cook meals during our stay. The only small downside was that the oven isn’t the greatest, but otherwise we had everything we needed. The house is surprisingly warm and has more than enough space for a group of adults or an extended family.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay here again. The house, space, location and beautiful beachfront setting made it such a relaxing getaway. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with an amazing view!"

8/10 Good

"A nice wee cabin with a great outlook onto paddocks with sheep & horses. Super comfy and warm bed. Put the heater on in the morning to warm the cabin. Edwin is a friendly host. He arranged the BBQ and gas, but we relaxed too much and didn't get to use it. Thank you."
