We had an amazing 3 night stay including New Year’s Eve at the Bamboo Bungalow.A real attention to details inside and outside with great decoration, an extremely well maintained tropical garden. Enjoyed the outdoor tub, and watching the night sky on the deck.Highly recommended! ##### Isabelle L.

Mark & Lisa’s Balinese styled home & garden is gorgeous & although we didn’t get to try out the pizza oven or outdoor bath (in winter), the log fire in the kitchen (which was lit before our arrival) kept us warm & cosy. It is a perfect place to return to after a day exploring around Karamea & the locals are very friendly. Communications, booking & accommodation were all PREMO! Try to stay at least 3 nights - it’s worth it! ![We found Bali in Little Wanganui! ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/745ee3d9-e07b-4216-9fb4-ff9c19f1e4fd-1749518059691.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/316e61b3-2d1d-4776-b47d-ed1a2de8dc82-1749518066018.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/edefc370-f892-471b-9e5b-74dc7de09548-1749518061394.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3d35a432-0c77-48a1-9f92-46c1a61b7330-1749518068251.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lindsay Jane M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill I. 9 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Indoor/Outdoor Space! Our family was at Bamboo Bungalow over the holidays and we LOVED our time there. The outdoor garden, patio and wood fired oven really made our time enjoyable. We even made some home made pizzas. The indoor area with large folding doors that open to the patio make you feel one with nature and the outdoors. Inside it was beautifully decorated and we had everything we needed. The living room was a great gathering spot for our family and the views out the window made it even better.It's remote which we loved, but do remember to bring your water and any food you might need as once you arrive, you won't really want to leave. We highly recommend this special spot and the owners were great hosts and very responsive. ##### Jill I.
