I am hiking a section of the Te Araroa trail from Auckland to Hamilton and came across Heavens Rest as a logistical stop.
I stayed in a 1 bedroom cottage and couldn’t have been more impressed with the tranquility after a long hike, comfy bed and fridge filled with juice, fresh milk, eggs, bread and yogurt.
Robert even drove me back to the trail in the morning - highly recommend

Excellent stay. The hotel was superb. The room was clean, the wireless charges on the bedside tables were a great idea. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and attentive. The breakfast was lovely too. The only one issue I had is that I had to pay extra for a decaf coffee with my breakfast. It should be free.

Room was spotless and very roomy and quiet. Check in was easy and staff were very friendly and welcoming. Everything you would need for a few nights away.

Peaceful location, very well maintained holiday park. All was clean and smart and the welcome was very warm. The Hot Pools within the complex are pristine and a pleasure to use. All in all a very pleasant stay.

We would highly recommend staying at Tairua Shores. The accommodation was clean, warm and well equipped with everything you might need for a stay in Tairua. My husband and I would definitely stay again.

This is a small and comfortable motel with 17 rooms two of which have disabled access.
The manager and his wife went to great lengths to make our stay free from trouble. The cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful and did an excellent job. There is also safe off road parking.

Amazing place to stay. So peaceful and beautiful coastline - great for recovering from jet lag. David and Julie (owners) very friendly and helpful. Only complaint - should have stayed longer!

Very helpful staff. Lovely cosy room in amongst the trees. The dinner in the restaurant was also very good; however breakfast could be improved (pastries were stale and healthier options were limited)
