Chalet Karaka 5 stars

Takaka

Offering free WiFi and set on the bank of a stream, Chalet Karaka offers accommodation 3 minutes' drive from Takaka village in Golden Bay. Chalet Karaka was absolutely delightful - a hidden gem, tucked away in a beautiful, tranquil bushy setting with a small picturesque stream running at the bottom of the garden. The shower was fantastic - excellent pressure with a lovely glass side looking out onto the private garden and stream. The room was spacious and well appointed and the icing on the cake was the generous outdoor undercover living area/deck complete with a Weber for all your barbecue requirements. Ngairie, our host, was friendly, welcoming and very helpful.

Waitapu Springs B&B 3 stars

Takaka

Waitapu Springs B&B is set in Takaka and offers a spa and wellness centre and a shared lounge. This 3-star bed and breakfast features a spa experience, with its sauna and hot tub. I thought it was just another homestay B&B probably a granny flat attached to the host's house where I may not even see people but it turned out to be a surprising encounter. It also operates spa and sauna that's free to B&B guests. Breakfast is included, not just those cereal or oatmeal but actually with more choices to cater different needs. Serge could even cook eggs in the way at your choice. Serge and Maria are both obviously passionate with their business. They sent useful information and guides about driving through Takaka Hill and answered questions timely before my arrival, navigated me the room and facilities when I arrived pretty late which left no fuss for me. The property has a vintage theme but the facilities are modern and hygeine. It's just a 5 minute drive from the Takaka town centre, easy for me to get there after dinner. Takaka is a stylish small town with quite some artistic shops.

The Rocks Chalets

Takaka

Located in Takaka, 10 minutes' drive from the beach, The Rocks Chalets features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi throughout the property. Free private parking is available on site. Our chalet (Kiwi) was spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. There were a lot of seating opportunities as well (inside and outside). The owner was very friendly and showed us everything when we arrived. We loved the view into the garden and could see birds and other wildlife and it was very quiet even though the main street was close by. There was also a small grotto on the premise, which was quite fun, even though we scared a bat and it scared us in return.
