We were offered a room upgrade but enjoyed the one we'd chosen, as it had lots of room and was comfortable. The complimentary body wash and moisturiser was wonderful with the manuka honey and kawakawa ingredients. We loved the quirky scenic drive from the main road. Nice views of the city. ##### Larraine Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Miodrag 1 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Phenomenal environment, you need to come to see it yourself: it is like you are in the city, but actually in the middle of untouched forest. ##### Miodrag Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Shona 21 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Beautiful food.

Great spot to explore the nearby beaches of Piha and Bethels ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/83c75943-ef6e-4ab8-b92b-a1b482487ad6-1758439603893.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Pauline 2 Sept 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities I loved the quiet surroundings.
