We were surprised by the upgrade - and it was just fabulous! Perfectly quiet for a couple of old girls having a road trip, and we really enjoyed staying with you. Ohakune had some lovely surprises too - we weren't aware of all the options available. Walking track to the falls was a bit tiring, but we made it half way and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.

room was nice and clean, and the beds were very comfortable. kitchenette made it super easy to feed my family and not buy take aways. kids loved the trampoline! Only downside was the Wi-Fi isn't very good in the rooms we ended up having to use our data.
