Nature eco lodge holiday rentals in North Island

Logement très bien placé pour accéder au parc du Tongariro et faire le Tongariro Crossing. La chambre correspond bien à la description et aux photos. La cuisine commune était propre (plus que ce qu'on a pu trouver dans d'autres hébergements de ce type).

Great place to stay! Had many amenities and was such a large room. Definitely would stay there again

We stayed at Tira Ora over Christmas and was definitely an amazing and very memorable time. We we're treated as part of the family with exceptional hospitality, food and festivities and even received a Christmas present under the tree. The estate is vast, with lots to do and explore and a good get away from civilisation, truly a retreat where one can reconnect with nature and each other. Our only regret is not spending more time here. Much love to the Tira Ora family, you were amazing!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars, but I can’t. We spent three days here and I honestly wish we could have stayed longer. This place was more than accommodation, it was an experience. It has everything! Beautiful views, more animals than you can pet, stunning hospitality. Farm animals, hiking trails, sting rays and nighttime kayaking in phosphorescence. The farm is only accessible through boat, but the mail bot provides a discounted fare and it’s worth it for the views on the way over. Thanks again to the amazing hospitality of Tira Ora, we felt so welcomed and taken care of in every aspect.

We had a good stay at The Alpine Chalets. Checkin and checkout were very easy. Stewart and Mary were very responsive and provided clear instructions. The place was very accessible to everything that you might need like bus stop, restaurants and dairy. The room is a bit dated, especially the toilet and shower, but overall it was functional, clean and tidy.

Andrea’s lodge was just perfect. We had everything we needed. Fully equipped kitchen, a warm fireplace, nice and tidy room. We felt like home. She gave us some recommendations for the area. There is also a pick for the shuttle bus to the start of the Tongario crossing right in front of the street. Easy to book and close to the start and end. Self laundry with coins available at the reception (if you have none) We can highly recommend this place!!

Lori’s place was clean, comfortable and presentable. The view was stunning and the pool/spa was enjoyable! The hosts thought of everything including things we didn’t know we needed. We could play music via Bluetooth, had 101 different cooking options, Netflix, coffee available and some of the most comfortable furniture. 5/5 churs, Would recommend.

We spent a great weekend at Lori's place. Communication was great and quick. We were able to change suites very easily as per our request. The view is absolutely stunning, the suite is comfy and very well equipped! You will lack nothing. The spa pool was a huge plus. We enjoyed ourselves very much and would definitely recommend it to our friends and family. Thanks again Lori!

Beautiful property with everything you need to relax away from the city. Whether it be exploring the gardens, lying on the sun warmed bricks next to the pool or sitting with a coffee watching the cows. Lovely spot!

The pictures on airbnb were a bit different from the huts we actually got. They were therefore beyond our expectations. Own hut with seeviews and own hottub on the terrace, with wonderful milkyway at the clear sky. And a nice breakfast and a beer in the fridge. Such an quiet place with a wonderful atmosphere.

Kay is an absolute delight! Unfortunately I didn’t mean Haydn. Couldn’t have been happier with the place, space and value. Thank you for your time and effort.

hi

This place is extraordinary and so are the beautiful family that host. We were welcomed, embraced, nurtured and extremely well-fed. We had the extra special treat of being there through Christmas and were warmly included with other guests in the most magnificent celebrations. The walks, animals birdlife and bush are out of this world and I can't recommend a visit enough. Shall return. Thank you beautiful whanau!

Great place! We loved being on a kiwi reserve and had a great sleep at our accommodation.

This was our second time staying at Ao Marama. It is a peaceful, beautiful retreat. Rustic in many ways, but very accommodating. Highly recommend!

Holly was a fantastic host, very welcoming to myself and my family and always willing to help. Magic..
