“We had the room with the view of Mt Taranaki. Well worth the extra money. The room was a great size with a nice sized balcony which had a spa tub on it. The room was quiet. Loved the sheep next door as well. Staff were so friendly. Underfloor heating in bathroom was great.”
“Absolutely beautiful, we arrived fairly early in the evening, so we got to watch the sun from one of the penthouse suites and it was absolutely worth it, we stayed 2 nights in total.
Exceptional service from Salt bar downstairs, including room service.
The spa was really nice to relax in after a day of walking as everything is within walking distance which was great! The shower head having 2 different massage options was another good way to end the day.
Beautiful food, beautiful views.”
“No outdoor lights at all ( Deck area ) Blinds need to be lifted and cleaned. Mould on blinds and all window channels. Hole in wall / door sash at deck door. Dust on all ledges. Very noisy from pool. On first night lots of kids in pool, sound proofing non apparent. TV was not setup properly? I spent an hour on google trying to work out how to get rid of teletxt/subtitles. Gave up. No decent compendium. In fact there wasnt one at all. When I went to reception to see if they had a sapre I was given a 1 page (dbl sided) laminated sheet. I would suggest that a huge help for you would be to have a nice book/folder that shows local options and services. People read these and make choices from same.”
“The room was a good size with 2 queen sized beds, we only used one and it was extremely comfortable. Every interaction with the staff was very friendly and courteous. We used the bar and the buffet breakfast both were very good.”
“We loved everything about the property - the decor and comfortable beds, the amazing view of the mountain from the sunny verandah, the private access to the river, the proximity to cafes and the beach, and the prompt communication with the hosts. Everything we needed was available, including plenty of towels and fresh, clean bedding. We thoroughly recommend Butlers Lane Retreat.”
