It's a lovely place to stay. The room is clean and spacious. The location is between Auckland and Rotorua that is suitable to stay one night to unwind and join the hobbiton movie set tour next day. The dinner and breakfast are yummy.

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!

As always the Ibis breakfast is first rate. Good coffee, fruit, eggs, bacon, or sausage, three different kinds of juice and all sorts of gluten free offers. Loved how they had full fat milk fresh from a bottle for my long black coffee. We could even eat outside on the balcony overlooking the river. The staff were helpful and friendly, of course.

It was not on the main strip but in the waterways housing. Both super markets are easy walking away. Whitianga was alive and the cafes were doing good trade. We used the hot pools at the Lost Springs excellent. We used the BBQ facilities at our accommodation. Had breakfast at the local cafes down by the water front. They were launching the class bottom boats down the ramp. If we had more time that looked like a great activity

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. 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
