Boasting a garden, a terrace, and barbecue facilities, The Dome Waikino provides accommodation in Waikino with free WiFi and mountain views. Featuring free private parking, the lodge is in an area where guests can engage in activities such as hiking and cycling. The photos don’t quite do the room justice — it’s actually much more spacious in person. We really enjoyed the peace and greenery. The host was super friendly and even went bush to help us retrieve a lost drone!

Located in Karapiro in the Waikato region and Mystery Creek Events Centre reachable within 28 km, Kauri Lodge Karapiro provides accommodation with free WiFi, BBQ facilities, a garden and free private parking. Shona really made us feel like home. We loved how she spent time to do up so much detailing in her home… the way she arranged the throws and we had the most comfortable stay. There were so many beds that my kids were eager to try a different one each night of our stay.

Located in Tairua in the Waikato region and Pauanui Beach reachable within 1.9 km, Seaview provides accommodation with free WiFi, BBQ facilities, a garden and free private parking.

A terrace and a range of water sports facilities can be found at the lodge, along with a shared lounge. What's not to like? The room had a great view out of 3 sides of the bay (about 50 meters away). There are a total of 4 beds (one double) and 3 twin beds in my room) if you're bringing your family. The bed I slept on was very comfortable. The building is relatively close to the main highway and town, but you don't hear any road noise. It's an easy walk to good restaurants and grocery stores. The place has an ocean theme. There's a fully stocked kitchen, so you can make your own food to save on costs. The back deck provides a great place to eat your meals while looking out at the bay. Brad (the owner) learned that I'm a whitewater kayaker, so he immediately offered to lend me his boat to paddle up the mouth of the local river. That was a nice gesture that went above and beyond! It was a beautiful paddle. Since my back surgery, it's been the only thing I've done that doesn't hurt. Thank you!! I'd definitely recommend this place!

Boasting a garden and a terrace, The Mann Homestay, Premium King Room with Private Ensuite, Near Waihi & Coromandel provides accommodation in Waihi with free WiFi and mountain views. Featuring free private parking, the lodge is in an area where guests can engage in activities such as hiking and cycling. I felt very comfortable in your accommodation; everything was new and perfectly prepared. The large glass front overlooking the pasture and the mountain range was the most beautiful feature. It’s 5 minutes to Waihi town and to Gold Discovery Center, less than 15 minutes to Karangahake Gorge, to Hauraki Heritage Train, to Waihi Beach, and Bowentown. Hobiton and the route to the Coromandel Peninsula are less than an hour's drive away. Next time I’d stay more days.

Featuring mountain views, Highland Lodge in Waikino features accommodation, a garden and a terrace.

There is a private bathroom with shower and free toiletries in each unit, along with bathrobes.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy a continental breakfast. Max is a great host, but it sounds like his boss drives him pretty hard,(he probably needs the structure). Lovely home with comfortable rooms overlooking a beautiful setting. It's a little slice of heaven.
