If I could give 11/10, I would! This cottage was so comfortable and Paula had literally thought of everything. You could tell so much thought and care had gone into everything which was greatly appreciated. The hosts were super friendly (but gave us total privacy at the same time). The location was perfect for visiting the glow worm caves as it was only a short drive away. Would 100% recommend staying here!

Aramatai Gardens could be described as a country cottage sitting between a botanical park on one side and farmland on the other. The park is extensive with ponds and bridges, and many interesting trees and plants. You could spend an hour walking and admiring this attraction. If you stay one night only, I would suggest checking in as early as possible to have enough time to see the park and falls. Bring food for dinner though because there are no food options nearby. You cook breakfast yourself from products supplied by Jill. Homemade brownies are one of the best I ever had. The only minor thing I would suggest is one more slice of bread for breakfast.

I had a fantastic experience at this hostel! The receptionist was very friendly and helpful during check-in, making me feel welcome from the start. The shared kitchen was tidy and spacious, providing a great space to cook and socialize. I also want to highlight the excellent service from the staff. I accidentally locked myself out late at night, but when I called for help, they responded quickly and assisted me in unlocking my room door. Overall, a great stay with excellent service. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    One of the motels that are ubiquitous in New Zealand.

    One of the motels that are ubiquitous in New Zealand. Perfect, functional accommodation for one night or two. Clean, perfunctory, and ok. Does it merit the price that is asked? That is a question of supply vs demand .....

    The Food & restaurants were fantastic.

    The Food & restaurants were fantastic. Te Kuiti was very central to many of the sightseeing activities like the world famous Waitomo Caves & Pio Pio, where many scenes for the 'academy award winning movie ' by Peter Jackson, "Lord of the Rings' were filmed. Only a stone throw away from Matamata, where the 'Hobbiton movies' were made!

    This is a farming commercial area close to the Waitomo Caves and cave worms tour. The town is basically two main roads with a few restaurants, stores, supermarket and other services. There is a train stop. We did not use the train for travel. It is only 15 minutes to Waitomo Caves and a good place to start exploring the cliffs along the Pacific Ocean further south.

    The Waitomo Caves is a must-see, and there are other attractions close by. We grabbed lunch at the Waitomo General Store which is more than just a store.The Cafe and menu selection is amazing and very reasonably priced. Cassandra and her team are a friendly bunch and super efficient.

    The garden at the cottage was amazing to explore. Te Kuiti has a fantastic Indian Takeaway with a wide range of menu options including a traditional Chicken Tikka Marsala and a toandoor oven to make Naan. Only problem was that we arrived on a weekend and a lot of restaurants nad safes were closed and no shops open (this is normal in New Zealand country areas but not where we come from in Australia). Ladies in the inforamtion centre were very helpful.

    This was such a lovely little stay. Out of our 2-week North Island trip, this little farm stay was the best! The room is spacious, beds are super comfy, modern utilities and loads of space for our daughter to run around who also had loads of fun patting their adorable cows. Less than a 5-minute drive into Te Kuiti town which has plenty of takeaway/restaurants and public transport if needed.

    This is a nice little motel in Te Kuiti. Not far from the shops. The motel is clean and quiet. I like the little seat and verandah outside the front. The car park is right outside your room.
