    The word "Retreat" in the title gave me the expectation of luxurious accomodation with fully contained rooms, spas etc. None of that, which was disappointing. A small private holiday park would cover it better.

    We had a larger group of 4 families of different sizes, the villa and cabin options fitted with our agenda and stay perfectly. We did a lot of driving and exploring during the day and cooked at home / played games in the evening. It was a lot of fun.

    it was a good location for sightseeing further around the area and for exploring on foot or bike. Be aware of the insects though and make sure you have repellent with you. The 'town' itself is very quiet. I would strongly recommend staying at the Hotel Theatre Royal. Clean, comfortable, interesting, great staff and good food.

    We came to Kumara specifically to stay at the Greenstone Retreat.....travelling the South Island, on the list was Fish n Chips on the Beach by the famous 'Hokitika' Sign to watch the sunset!!! We did this, and Kumara was just a skip away to stay.

    Close to the West Coast Wilderness Cycle Trail, Kumara...

    Close to the West Coast Wilderness Cycle Trail, Kumara Historic Cottage is a backpackers with basic yet comfortable accommodation that fits the cost which was very reasonable. Comfortable beds and the living room was OK for four of us - would be cramped with a full quota of guests. Kitchen basic. No separate toilet. If you want less basic accommodation, the pub has rooms available. Main grizzle was the lack of TV channels available - one channel (Prime) is no choice and when it is pouring outside there is very little to do in Kumara! On the bright side, the pub opens at 4:00pm in the afternoon and the coffee, beer, and meals are good. One real bonus is the safe storage of your bike in a locked shed in which you can recharge your battery if you have an ebike. If a number of ebikes need to recharge, some may have to wait their turn so it pays to connect up - if you can - when you arrive.

    The township is steeped in history easily available to visitors.Walking is an easy way to get around. Theatre Royal is a fabulous place to eat snacks, or indulge in a lovely meal. Staff brilliant. Kids menu fabulous for even the fussiest youngster.

    Beautifully clean....gorgeous place....wonderful atmosphere!! Kate was great with communication about checkin, and had some cool ideas for how to spend our days while in the area. Kids loved the games room!! The 'outdoor' kitchen was cool.....well-equipped, and beautifully clean!! Would highly recommend the Greenstone Retreat, to people who appreciate accomodation that is unique.....a very special place!!!

    We received a friendly greeting and were allocated the Otto room. The hotel has been sympathetically decorated and furnished to suit its gold-rush roots and is quite charming. We ate a very nice meal in the friendly restaurant and slept well in a very comfortable bed with crisp clean bedding. The ensuite shower room is well-equipped (if a little tired) and the toiletries are wonderful!

We had one complete house, plus some others in backpackers and other house. Great bathrooms, no issues getting us all showered after an afternoon of biking.

    We stayed in the Miners Cottages. They are amazing! So spacious and warm. The beds are comfy and warm, the bathroom is beautiful. The staff are all so nice and very accommodating. A lovely lady told us about some cool glow worms for the kids to look at just a short walk away so we took them to see those. Overall, very impressed.

    Stunning Gardens! The lantern lights that lit up in the evenings around the gardens was beautiful. Our 11yr old always escaped in the Den to play darts. Great selection of board games, ring toss & a trampoline kept him busy which was great. The Wifi coverage was 💯 times better than the fancy 5 star hotels 😊
