Get your climbing gear ready…
Property is very close to glow worm cave. The climb from the parking to your room should come with a Sherpa. I’d have packed a small overnight bag if I had known. It’s comfortable, the owners are delightful folks, and the breakfast hearty and fresh.

Good value in Waitomo
The hotel is in a great location for the Waitomo Caves, the waterfall, the Natural Bridge, and just nice rolling hills. Our room was secluded and had everything we needed for our stay. The property has nice vegetation and a nice deck to sit on.

The rooms are individual lodges. Ours was quite small but fine for one night. Lynette was very friendly and helpful, offering suggestions for dinner and other things to do. There were lots of small touches that we appreciated, and a lovely continental breakfast.
