Waitomo Orchard B&B

셀프체크인. 주방과 식당이 있고 음식을 준비해가면 좋음 핫풀이 있어 그런데로 좋고 호텔 주차와 앞전망이 시원하게 좋은편임 큰도로가 옆에 있어 차량소음 때문에 자는데 방해를 받음

The location was stunning, the room spotless, the host charming and breakfast fab. Pity I only had one night , as there is even a hot tub with a view. Will have to try and make a return visit.

The room and property were great. Very comfortable and clean. Enjoyed the hot tub and breakfast.

Der Garten war sehr liebevoll gestaltet und der Ausblick weitläufig. Wir hatten ein Deluxe-Studio mit eigenem Bad. Das Zimmer war sehr liebevoll und gemütlich eingerichtet, die Einrichtung passte zueinander. Es gab einen Kühlschrank und Tee/Kaffeezubehör. Die Koffer konnte man in einer kleinen Ankleide öffnen, so dass es nicht schlimm war. dass das Zimmer nicht übermäßig groß war. Das Bad war sehr sauber, die Heizlampe war sehr praktisch. An sich war das Zimmer ruhig, man musste nur leider im außen herum gehen und der Whirlpool stand direkt davor (wurde aber zum Glück nicht benutzt). Ein wenig befremdlich fanden wir, dass die Besitzer/Betreuer der Unterkunft im großen Zimmer nebenan gewohnt haben und man überall reinschauen konnte. Das Zimmer der Bewohner wirkte leider ein wenig chaotisch/unaufgeräumt, besonders der PC-Bereich. Es gab einen Self Check-in, die Besitzer haben wir nicht gesprochen. Der Parkplatz ist kostenlos auf dem Grundstück vorhanden. Das Frühstück war inklusive. Der Frühstücksraum ist ebenfalls sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Auswahl war okay, einige Sachen sollten ein wenig öfter überprüft werden (Butter und Marmelade - hier scheinen nicht alle Personen einen extra Löffel/ein sauberes Messer zu nutzen).

It was a very different bed and breakfast experience. Did not ever meet or talk to the host. Instructions were wrote on a board as we came in. Room was big and clean. Nice views of the countryside. Continental breakfast at anytime. The hot tub was awesome. Only downside was we needed to carry our bags to the furthest room in the rain and right next to a highway so traffic noise all night

Fantastic place, room well prepared. Great view outside and eating area options available too.

Charming charming property. Great parking. Decor is beautiful and rustic. Sparkling clean. Continental brekkie with lots of options. Very friendly dog on site if you are missing your furry friend! There are several units that share a bathroom and also several with ensuite.

Fantastic location, host friendliness, and room. Everything was so well decorated and prepared. The host gave us great recommendations for shopping, hikes and food. We did them all and he was so right! The breakfast was amazing, as was the view and hotub!

We stayed here for one night and it was very lovely! We had been staying in hotels and this was a nice change of pace. It was nice to get more of a local feel. We especially enjoyed the hot tub overlooking the farms.

Waitomo Orchard B & B was quiet and comfortable and extremely close to the waitomo caves. The staff was friendly and helpful. There is also a great outdoor area to relax in. The provided breakfast was good and there's even a kitchen to prepare a meal of you don't want to drive into town for a meal.

Trevor was very accommodating. Very clean rooms, breakfast facility and environs, comfortable bed. Great visits with his dogs and cat. Beautiful views from property. Thanks Trevor.

A lovely setting and a nice, friendly house manager. However, a very odd set up. The honeymoon suite is getting pretty worn, with some stained carpeting and towels that were very rough and frayed, quite obviously in need of replacement. But more odd is the fact that the room has a door to an adjoining living room where (I’m guessing?) the people that own or manage the property stay. They were never noisy or inconsiderate, but it’s just an odd feeling for a honeymoon suite to have a connecting door to someone’s living quarters. It creates a distinct lack of a sense of privacy, and really should be walled off for a better division. Not that anyone was listening, but felt like we had to whisper anytime we were in the room so as not to have our conversation or other activities heard. Not a bad place, and again, a very nice location, but a few things that really detract from the overall experience.

Clean, spacious, great view

It felt like fairytale, beautiful surroundings, clean and well decorated room, and the shared bathroom was implacable! Supper clean! A superb stay!

This was such a great place to stay! Very clean and excellent set up :)

Beautiful property. Room and amenities very comfortable and clean. Generous and varied breakfast options. Highly recommend

Not quiet or peaceful. Stayed in room 5 , although we had our own bathroom the room could have been cleaner. Mini fridge in room did not work, had to keep curtains closed for privacy as the hot tub was outside the room.

Everything was clean and cosy. Great price for a lovely stay. Trevor upgraded us to a larger room which was great. Thank you.

Clean, quiet and comfy bed! perfect.

A good spot to explore Waitomo Caves. All very clean. However interior was rather old and room a bit small

Nice setting, clean, nice folks Unfortunately walls are thin, I could hear the neighbors talking.

This is a self serve property as you do not get to meet any staff during your stay. Our room was okay and had it's own bathroom, but read the details carefully before booking as several rooms share a bathroom and we came across guests not happy with that arrangement. Walls are thin so you can clearly hear neighboring rooms. Nice location but also close to busy road.

It was a little confusing finding the entrance to the property and finding our room. Keys and room numbers were in envelopes marked with customers names and taped to a window. Our room was small but clean and adequate. More hooks and/or hanging space would be helpful. With fewer decorative items around, the room would be more functional and more comfortable. The setting was beautiful with lovely views looking out over the countryside.

Very good B and B. Big room with private shower, beautiful garden around house. Good breakfast with fruits, cereal and yogurt. Wifi is weak and slow. Close to Waitomo caves.

Room was small no space to put anything. Was not happy that it was a shared bathroom, don’t recall seeing that in the description if we had we would not have booked. Location was nice with superb views.

We had a room with an ensuite. It was large, clean and had a great view over the valley. Owner (and pet dogs) were very friendly. Continental breakfast was excellent.

We understand the perspectives of some of the review. We wish Expedia had a real 1-10 rating as we would have rated the room 7/10. Instead, it is a rating of 1-5 and then doubled, perhaps not a true representation. Pros: Property was pretty. The cat was also a plus. Room was fine and clean. Not having someone to communicate with upon arrival did not bother us. My husband spoke with the owner and he was really nice and personable. Cons: The Honeymoon Suite is connected to the main house by a door. Unfortunately, you can hear every conversation, door close, dog bark, fridge opening, etc. We really did not feel as though we had our own room, we felt more like we were intruding in the owners personal space. There was not even a hallway separating, just a door. We whispered the entire time to not disturb anyone. Additionally, we smelled urine in the room and noticed a waterproof mattress pad. Understandably, if someone had an accident in the bed, it makes sense to want to protect it. However, the smell continued, and waterproof mattress pads are very hot to sleep on. Reviewers complained about the lack of food at breakfast, but it didn't bother us. There is bread/toast and cereal. The cereal was stale, though. Maybe that should be replaced a little more often. There was cream cheese, but nothing to accompany - maybe some bagels? Interested parties should just do their research to ensure they know what they are booking. Room 6 looked secluded & private.

If I ever booked something like their “Honeymoon Suite” again, I’m sure my wife would divorce me. Where to start? Worn 80’s decor, threadbare but hard small bath towels, the shower mat was wet when we arrived, no place for suitcases but the floor, carpet worn through in places, a shared hot tub just off the little “private” patio, another unit’s patio 3 ft from the bathroom window, endless highway traffic noise - I kept checking that the window was indeed closed - still busy at 2:30 am, but down to a car every minute or so at 3:30 am, no one to greet you on arrival, loud voices through the lightweight door into the main house (which we weren’t to use), must drag suitcases across grass to get to the room, it was wet in the a.m. and my suitcase shed grass clippings into the car and every subsequent hotel room for days. Now we are swearing off any and all B&Bs in the future. Close to Waitomo, but not worth it 😡

Trevor was very accommodating. Very clean rooms, breakfast facility and environs, comfortable bed. Great visits with his dogs and cat. Beautiful views from property. Thanks Trevor.

Property manager never responded to any messages

No staff available at check in. The sign at the door says to text the owner when you arrive which i did. No response. I went to my assigned room to find that there was a bolt lock on the outside of the door. I cannot understand why that door could be locked from the outside. The property is beautiful but that made me very uncomfortable as a solo traveller. I decided to book elsewhere for the rest of my stay.

Great stop for 2 nights while we went to Waitomo caves. Host was great - even took our daughter out wakeboarding with his family!

We enjoyed our stay. We were greeted by the owner the day we got there and in the next morning for breakfast. He also gave us an excellent suggestion for the evening meal. We would recommend this place.

Property owner invisible. I think two dogs greeted us upon arrival and upon departure no one was anywhere, not even a dog and that was it.

This was a very comfortable B&B and a beautiful location. You can tell the owner takes pride in the place as it has beautiful landscaping all around. He has also very helpful in advising us about the local area and places to eat.

Fantastic location, host friendliness, and room. Everything was so well decorated and prepared. The host gave us great recommendations for shopping, hikes and food. We did them all and he was so right! The breakfast was amazing, as was the view and hotub!

All the little details taken care of, well signposted down the golf road. Excellent in all areas

Beautiful property, nice room, facilities. Would have been good if there was someone to greet us on arrival, however.

If you like B&Bs, this is a nice one. It was super clean. The owner was friendly. A continental breakfast was included. The location was super convenient as it was only about fifteen minutes from the Waitomo Caves - which are best seen early in the morning before the crowds get there.

Location was great

Beautiful location over looking the orchard , wish we had more time to enjoy !

Great location close to the Waitomo Caves. It had nice views of the valley and great stop on my way back to Auckland. Room was quiet and comfortable.

Beautiful property, especially in December as the flowers were in full bloom and the smell was heavenly. The rooms are not fancy, but beds were comfortable and overall had everything we needed. Continental breakfast offered a nice selection of breads, cereal and fresh fruit. Trevor was a great host. Only thing is the road getting in is somewhat narrow, I would recommend getting there before dark!!

This was a lovely spot. The view exceptional, the room very nicely decorated and comfortable. Although it was a shared bathroom, it was modern, clean, and nearby. The continental breakfast was lovely in the shared dining room, and the owners were very responsive. It was nice to sit and chat with other travellers. I recommend this place.

We arrived later in the evening and it was hard to find and difficult to see the instructions for check in. It felt like we were walking up to someone’s house. The fresh fruit at breakfast was wonderful but the rest of breakfast was underwhelming.

Arm’s-length owner who has an ice cream / cafe place a few km’s down the road that is his primary biz. Rooms were small, barely enough to open a suitcase on the floor. Thin walls. Shared bathrooms for up to six guests. Hugely moldy, nasty English muffins in morning. Good things: gorgeous, pastoral views when outside. Fresh plums, peaches, nectarines from orchard.

Lovely accommodations, tasty breakfast, spectacular property with gorgeous views. Host is friendly and responsive. Convenient to Waitomo attractions. Highly recommend!

Cosy B&B. Can recommend. Breakfast is basically cereals and toast, but really that's all anyone needs unless your going on a big hike.

Comfortable bed with spacious room. Easy access and close to golf course. Very helpful host with recommendations regarding dining options. Great continental breakfast and easy parking. Only thing to mention that we had some issue with operating the tv and no tea bags in the room. However easy over looked with all the other comforts.

Netter Gastgeber, nur das Frühstück hätte etwas mehr herzhaftes beinhalten können. Whirlpool und Ausblick waren super!

The unit we were in was immaculate and the views were spectacular, would recommend it to anyone. The breakfast was very good also, with plenty of choice. Trevor is an amiable and welcoming host, Jack and Harley are equally welcoming ( the dogs).

Waitomo Orchard B & B was quiet and comfortable and extremely close to the waitomo caves. The staff was friendly and helpful. There is also a great outdoor area to relax in. The provided breakfast was good and there's even a kitchen to prepare a meal of you don't want to drive into town for a meal.
