Everything. Beautiful quaint charm, lovely designed lodge, peaceful location, incredible service and hospitality. The onsite chef is devine and the nicest person. The spa massage was one of the best I’ve had. The owner shared about his culture, family, special meaning of the property and even tribal wine. All in all if I could give this property a 20 out of 10 I would!

Last minute stay at Ventura Inn was lovely. I was surprised to get a suite so that really exceeded my expectations. Basically it was a one bedroom apartment with all the amenities and comforts. Nice kitchen, big screen TV in the living room, large bed that was very comfortable, and windows that let in a lot of sunlight. Location was great- just a short walk to the main city center. Free parking on site too. Staff were friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my stay very much. Definitely recommend.

Great sized town, with alot to do if your into hiking or shopping or swimming. I f Definitely feel like I could have spent an extra day or 2 there but I reckon it was the friends I made along the way that mad it worth it.

Whitianga was a lovely place to walk around and explore.

Whitianga was a lovely place to walk around and explore. We especially enjoyed the museum, which was very informative and well presented. We stopped at the Blue Lagoon for a smoothie and some chips—the pear and lychee smoothie was particularly nice and refreshing. We finished the day at The Lost Spring, which was pleasant overall, although the water in the main pool was more tepid than hot.

Close to Tongariro National Park and a short drive to Taupo. Beautiful scenery on the drive from Hamilton down the west side of Lake Taupo. Turangi itself was larger than we thought with all the amenities we needed. Great grocery store (New World) and good gas prices.

The town itself is small and friendly, but my main reason for being there was to explore the local landscapes, which were gorgeous, and the Driving Creek Railway, which was extraordinary, and really not-to-be missed if you're in the area. The story of how it was built over many decades through the dedication and drive of one man was deeply moving and inspiring. The trip to the top was unforgettable. I'd definitely do it all again if I had the chance!

Raglan is a lovely beach town.

Raglan is a lovely beach town. It’s fun to walk around and look at the shops. Lots of great food options in town. There are great day trips from there, too! Kawhia Hot Water Beach was awesome! Bridal Veil Falls cannot be missed. Te Toto Lookout is a wild drive but the view is incredible.

The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set.

The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set. This is an amazing experience, our second trip. Have done both the lunch & dinner experience. Food, staff & experience rate a 10. Had a great meal at Sofra, food & staff were great. Breakfast at The Rich Coffee Cafe was nice and the staff were ok. Visited the I-Centre too and found the staff to be helpful.

Our tour of the Ruakura cave was great.

Our tour of the Ruakura cave was great. Our tour guide held the kids' attention the entire way and answered all of their questions. The caves are amazing to see and this walking tour is just the right length, even for young kids. Don't forget to book ahead and take a warm top as it is quite chilly down there.

We loved it.

We loved it. The grandkids loved the playground by the mall area. We had a great time at the Goldmine experience and fully recommend this as they were very informative and something different to see. Everything was close by with ample parking which made it easier to get around. Wea made our meals although meal delivery is possible. The ocean is also close. Would love to come back to Thames at some point
