Chalet Karaka 5 stars

Takaka

Offering free WiFi and set on the bank of a stream, Chalet Karaka offers accommodation 3 minutes' drive from Takaka village in Golden Bay. The 5-star guest house has river views, and guests can enjoy access to BBQ facilities . Chalet Karaka was absolutely delightful - a hidden gem, tucked away in a beautiful, tranquil bushy setting with a small picturesque stream running at the bottom of the garden. The shower was fantastic - excellent pressure with a lovely glass side looking out onto the private garden and stream. The room was spacious and well appointed and the icing on the cake was the generous outdoor undercover living area/deck complete with a Weber for all your barbecue requirements. Ngairie, our host, was friendly, welcoming and very helpful.

Waitapu Springs B&B 3 stars

Takaka

Waitapu Springs B&B is set in Takaka and offers a spa and wellness centre and a shared lounge. This 3-star bed and breakfast features a spa experience, with its sauna and hot tub. The bed and breakfast also offers free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. I thought it was just another homestay B&B probably a granny flat attached to the host's house where I may not even see people but it turned out to be a surprising encounter. It also operates spa and sauna that's free to B&B guests. Breakfast is included, not just those cereal or oatmeal but actually with more choices to cater different needs. Serge could even cook eggs in the way at your choice. Serge and Maria are both obviously passionate with their business. They sent useful information and guides about driving through Takaka Hill and answered questions timely before my arrival, navigated me the room and facilities when I arrived pretty late which left no fuss for me. The property has a vintage theme but the facilities are modern and hygeine. It's just a 5 minute drive from the Takaka town centre, easy for me to get there after dinner. Takaka is a stylish small town with quite some artistic shops.

Pohara's Beach House

Pohara

Pohara's Beach House is set in Pohara. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are available at the holiday home free of charge.

The spacious holiday home is fitted with 1 bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen with kitchenware, and 1 bathroom. A TV is featured. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance. Amazing views, stylish and comfortable. While a small space, it had everything needed and more. I was impressed with the kitchenware which was well-supplied and thought out for use in a small space. There was an inflatable paddle board which is great to take out on a calm morning and watch the dawn from the water. Short walking distance to several restaurants. The host was responsive. I wouldn’t hesitate to come back and stay longer.

Nothing we didn't like. Only thing we would do different next time would be to bring extra blankets as the bunk bedding was beautiful, but some friends got a bit cold. We did have a fire place though to keep us warm! A++++ happy with the beautiful stay!
