Best Hotels in Okauia, New Zealand

The 7 of us had a lovely stay at the hotel, it is a historic hotel so not really many mod cons like you'd have at a city motel, like air con, sky tv and the modern room services, but the staff were amazing and they were very short staffed, and most staff were on duty from breaky to close. The food was to die for, I think over the 4 days we tried at least 1 of everything and it was all 10/10 A free continental breakfast is available to guest, and each morning there were delicious surprises for the guests, which had you guessing each day what it would be, and hoping for donuts The cabins were kept very nice, clean, warm and towels were serviced daily, a few things had been removed from the room but on request we were given replacements, such as fan (it was 24c), a hand basin plug and a missing tv remote, each cabin had its on spa pool which we had on cold as it was refreshing, coffee/tea were available also but no milk. On the grounds there is a camping ground, tennis course (rackets available) , 3 thermal spring pools, a 9 hole golf course (clubs available to hire) a bar area with a cool jukebox, outdoor cafe/restaurant area, indoor restaurant and internally there were lots of comfy rest areas to sit and chill or play chess/drafts or read and books were also available. I'd recommend this place to all, it was def a great venue for our group to spnd new year, we would go back for sure, and the staff made it the experience it was, thank you each and everyone of you

If you are looking for a relaxed place to stay, then consider the Horse and Jockey. There are an array of room options, shared bathrooms or ensuites, which were basic but very clean. Breakfast is your typical continental and the only negative is to be aware that there is music playing every night. However on Friday and Saturday nights, we read that they offer reduced rates and a later check out as compensation. There is also free parking and the staff were friendly and helpful.

A very comfortable room with under carport parking. Two rooms to separate us and give the teenager some privacy. Wonderful, warm, and friendly staff. Easy to use laundry. Warm and high pressure shower. Comfortable bed. Great kitchenette with saucepans, hot plate, fridge. Just off the road, but we didn't hear any vehicle noise. Air-conditioning worked a treat

My wife and I used to come to the Opal Hot Springs way back in the late 70's. Then it was one of the best destinations around. Today, it's welcoming management and staff along with the friendly locals,still make it a good destination. The countries economic situation must be having an effect on how much money is available to be spent here, it is crying out for modernisation and upgrading of the pool complex. Nothing beats making friends in a small cosy camp/motel situation and this weeknd was no exception, for that alone we will be coming back. Thanks guys for a quiet nights sleep after a good soak in a safe and well loved establishment.

I cannot even begin to say how much we enjoyed our stay. Great location for visiting local Hobbiton. Sue was an absolutely superb host - this is the absolute best place we have ever stayed in! It is one large house with three bedrooms, a living room and dining room attached to a kitchen, then Sue and her family live in another part. You feel like you are in a well loved home, but not that you are sitting in someone else’s living room - clearly guest only space which makes in comfortable and un-intrusive feeling. The photos on website do not do their rooms justice. All rooms are beautifully and tastefully decorated, with a farmhouse feel, but also modern extras (plenty of unobvious USB charging points throughout rooms for instance). We arranged a time for breakfast and when we came into the dining room, we found yogurt/fruit, cereals and juice waiting for us. Sue then brought pastries, more fruit and then a full cooked breakfast. Quite honestly, the most amazing breakfast I have ever had! Sue will cook a dinner for you if requested (additional cost), or can provide a discount card for restaurant in local Matamata, which we opted for - a great idea so you can see local town and restaurant was a fantastic Italian, only 12 min drive away. She also had an honesty bar and drinks fridge in dining room for you to use. On the day we had to leave, we left room at 10.30 so it could be prepared for next guest, but Sue was very insistent not to make us feel rushed out. So we spent the morning reading and relaxing in lounge, which was prefect before our next drive. Sue even turned up with coffee and homemade lemon scones! We seriously cannot rate Villa Walton and Sue highly enough, and would gladly fly 28hours from the UK again just to stay again.
