The flexible accommodation options make it suitable for everyone, from adventurers seeking a base camp to business groups needing meeting spaces and communal dining.
Enjoy Shared Spaces and Natural Beauty
The chalets’ shared kitchen and dining areas encourage a friendly, social atmosphere where guests can connect and share stories. Outdoor communal spaces are perfect for enjoying the spring sunshine, birdwatching or hosting group activities. There’s also a conference room available for business retreats, charity events or team-building exercises.
Discover Spring Activities Nearby
Spring brings longer days and comfortable temperatures, inviting guests to take advantage of the many nearby outdoor attractions. The Waitomo Walkway starts just steps from the chalets, leading through native forest and alongside streams. For a short, scenic outing, visit the Mangapohue Natural Bridge and take in its impressive limestone arch framed by spring greenery.
Of course, the main attraction is the Glowworm Caves themselves. Spring is a great time to take guided tours or book blackwater rafting trips, where you float on inner tubes through caves sparkling with thousands of tiny glowworms. Other options include exploring Ruakuri Cave’s rainforest trail or zip lining through nearby forest canopy for a bird’s-eye view of the blossoming landscape.
Local Flavours and Relaxing Evenings
The local village offers welcoming cafes and eateries serving fresh seasonal fare, perfect for refuelling after a day of adventures. Or if you prefer, prepare your own meals in the shared kitchen and enjoy a quiet dinner surrounded by nature’s peaceful sounds.
