Remigo1 (10/5): - Wszystko super zawarte w poprzedniej recenzji z uwagi na powyższe zdecydowaliśmy się zostać 1 noc dłużej bo było super.
Remigo1 (10/5): - Bardzo miły pobyt w domowej atmosferze, pyszna kawa dostępna 24h z ekspresu , duża wspólna przestrzeń , wygodne łóżka i bardzo blisko do poleconej przez właściciela plaży Maitai, Przesympatyczny właściciel. W zasadzie wszystko na plus ... Minusów brak. Polecamy gorąco.
Marc (10/5): -
Gebert (10/5): - Extremely clean and comfortable. Very friendly and welcoming hosts. House was stocked with everything you would need. A home away from home.
Michael (10/5): Fabulous!!! - Very homely and a very warm welcome. Breakfast was lovely, as were the surprise treats. If we’re in the area again, will definitely rebook. Thank you x N/A
Robin (9/5): Lovely Karikari accommodation option! - This is a lovely place to stay on the Karikari peninsula. The place feels like a little oasis, was very clean, and full of personal touches. Paul and Catalina were very kind and even shared their paua fritters with us on arrival! Highly recommend for anyone visiting the Karikari peninsula!
Berlianna (10/5): Wonderful B@B - We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Paul and Katalina for their wonderful hospitality. We had a great time at their place. The courtyard is super cosy, and everything is done with taste and style. The hosts are really nice, and Paul gave us a warm welcome. He told us everything and showed us around. The room we stayed in was really cosy, and the views from the window were amazing. In the evening, Katalina treated us to cookies she had baked herself. We really didn't want to leave, but unfortunately our holiday was limited in time. In the morning, we had a delicious breakfast. We recommend this location for a holiday and this place to stay to everyone.
Simon (10/5): A very warm home. I would come back again. -
Margaret (7/5): Hosts were lovely. I wasn’t there long enough to fully enjoy what was available - I didn’t have breakfast at the lodge. Location was fine. Parking was limited but adequate on the first night
Daniel (10/5): -
Christopher (10/5): AN EXCELLENT STAY IN A GOOD LOCATION - The location and view from the unit were outstanding. From the veranda there was a view of Karikari beach in the distance across the fields. The unit was compact, however, fantastically equipped with all utensils you may need. Cooking facilities were excellent and the gas barbecue worked well. The separate toilet was very clean and was very good. Our hosts were very kind and gave us lots of tips about the area, which we found very helpful. An excellent and very enjoyable stay. Nothing
Manfred (10/5): Wohlfühloase mit netten Gastgebern - Sehr gut Es gibt nichts zu beanstanden
Mark (10/5): -
Theresa (10/5): - Friendly hosts, clean and comfortable, couldn't ask for more.
Anne-Marine (6/5): Mixed experience - The room was spacious, clean, neat, and tidy. We were not greeted by the hosts themselves but by a third person who immediately asked us for payment, even though we hadn't yet placed our luggage in the room. This felt inappropriate and made us uncomfortable. Not quite what we would expect from a lodge. That aside, our hosts were friendly. I personally found the common areas cluttered with too many objects, leaving little room to make the space my own. What was most uncomfortable was sharing the bathroom and other common areas with a group of workers, although they were polite, as the only female guest in an exclusively male environment. The parking is also tight, requiring some coordination to leave the property. Overall, the stay went well, but it was not entirely comfortable.
Locksi (9/5): -
Ratu (10/5): - Peace and quiet. Close to local, shops and takeaways, beautiful beaches 🤔🤔🤔🙄 nothing.
Isabelle (9/5): Très chaleureux ! - Très convivial. Lit confortable, petit déjeuner copieux , cuisine et salon partagés , parfait pour de chouettes rencontres . Hôtes très accueillants . Top Pas de vue sur le paysage , mais les plages ne sont pas loin à pied 😉
Roon (10/5): - Great hospitality and good chat with owners
Monika (10/5): Very pleasant experience. I wish I could stay longer. We felt very comfortable. Hosts were very welcoming, pleasant and - Great location. Close to beautiful beaches. There’s a store and a gas station near by.
Paul sherman (10/5): Really enjoyed it - The location bed spar just everything will be back The fish and chip shop up the road had to wait 2 hours for our tea.
Martyn (9/5): - Superb location
Harvey (10/5): Will be privileged to stay again - Excellent quality fantastic location service and people Nothing
Stephen (9/5): A pleasant stay enhanced by the view and the Hosts. - We stayed in The Pohutukawa Cabin with a view over cattle paddocks to Karikari Beach. Paul & Katalina were excellent hosts and we had the best room. The breakfast provided and the kitchen facilities were more than we expected. It was close to Karikari Winery where we had coffee and dinner the 1st night. The next day we drove to Cape Reinga. We had icecream at Pukenui which was as good as Katalina had told us. We stopped there on our way back and purchased a fantastic Steak and Oyster pie and then had to buy another for tea that evening.
Ivo (10/5): The place to stay at Kari kari peninsula! - Really enjoyed our stay in this small lodge. Very clean and welcoming. Hosts are so friendly.very nice bed too.lots of nice beaches around
Dirk (10/5): -
Johanna (10/5): Fantastic! Highly recommend this place! Would happily stay again in the cabin with the spa pool. - We didn't realise at the time of booking that we had access to our own private spa pool with amazing views of the stunning scenery! The accommodation itself was lovely! Loved all the arty vibes of it all and the hosts were very welcoming! The only negative I can think of is that there was a lack of privacy in the bathroom due to the windows where anyone could potentially walk past and see you having a shower or doing your business. Could be easily fixed with blinds/curtains.
Scott (10/5): Fantastic place to stay with friendly helpful hosts who went above and beyond. - The location and the amenities within the lodge. It was spacious and well equipped and had many places to relax and enjoy the lodge. We liked everything.
Kurtis (10/5): -
Liliane (10/5): - Perfect 👌
Stefanie (10/5): - Sehr liebevoll und detailliert Eingerichtet. Tolles Frühstück, sogar Siebtraegermaschine und Kaffeemühle vorhanden 😘
Bernd (9/5): Gepflegte Lodge mit Gemeinschaftsbad, die von netten Leuten betrieben wird - - Das Frühstück war ok, aber nichts besonderes. Ansonsten war alles gepflegt und picobello sauber und aufgeräumt. Die Lage war besonders - guter Zugang zu Buchten / Stränden Nichts
Piero (10/5): Perfetto - Absolutely a 10/10 property. It is extremely clean, well maintained, and every detail is carefully thought out—many elements are designed with great attention to detail. The breakfast room is very welcoming, just like the bedrooms. Before our arrival, we were given all the instructions by Katerina. We apologize once again for the delay, and thank you very much for the beautiful location you offered us. Those who stay during Christmas will be able to enjoy the atmosphere thanks to the tasteful decorations. Truly, congratulations. Nothing
swords (10/5): Our stay - Very friendly,nice ,good kitchen and space to relax.
Joachim (8/5): Eindrucksvolle Landschaften und sehr freundliche Gastgeber - Sehr netter Empfang und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Die Zimmer waren sehr sauber und liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Landschaften und Strände sind sehr eindrucksvoll. Der Kontakt zu den anderen Gästen war sehr herzlich.

Our hosts Paul and Katalina are super friendly and happy to advise and inform you of what the North of the North Island has to offer. For us, there was nothing to dislike.

Jami (10/5): Lovely stay in Tokerau Beach. - Lovely cottage at a private home. 1.5 hrs to Cape Reinga. Friendly hosts. Private. Well stocked kitchenette.

Torsten (10/5): Paul & Katalina’s place is an unexpected peaceful treasure - hidden behind the modest frontage of KariKari lodge lies the peaceful vibe, tender care and homely touches of the owners Katarina and Paul. We loved all the plants and unique decorations before relaxing in the comfy armchairs in the lounge. Complementary Fruit, coffee, tee, milk, and biscuits area available any time as well as tasty homemade jams, cereal and toast for breakfast. Everything was clean and the bed comfy. We had a super relaxing time. Sadly our schedule allowed us only one night, but would have wanted to stay longer. KariKari lodge is a great place to stop on the way up to or down from cape Reinga. And the local Maitai beach (5mins drive) is as beautiful as it is fabulous for swimming and snorkelling. Nothing
