Omaka Lodge - Taumarunui

The location turned out to be amazing. Also, Bradley's Garden was 3 miles away. Had perfectly clean room complete with en-suite bathroom and the most gorgeous view, for instance

omaka lodge is a hidden gem! the rooms are beautifully presented with stunning furniture. the ensuite is amazing with heated floors and a rainfall shower. the hosts are attentive and delightful. the location is stunning with gorgeous views of the grounds. i loved wandering in the beautiful garden and listening to the gentle water feature. plus, the breakfast with fresh fruit from the garden was lovely!

Can recommend!

Had restful 2 nights here. The room was stocked and impeccably clean and we appreciated the bathroom, it was luxurious. It included climate control, a seating area, and a private entrance, and the bed was extremely comfy. Everything was simply perfect.

A room with the most beautiful view was reserved and it cost $225. 🌄

Location here is great, nestled in a quiet valley near some beautiful gardens and surrounded by nature. the breakfast is a real treat, with delicious coffee and fresh fruits straight from the garden, along with a tasty museli. 🌿

This place has an incredible location in the region, and the breakfast is delicious with homemade preserves from their garden and a variety of great options.

Delicious food is served here 🍽️. the location is lovely, with beautiful gardens nearby. They also have homemade jams, jellies, and stewed fruits for you to enjoy. And if you're feeling active, there's a tennis court available.

This place has a warm and friendly atmosphere, and the setting is absolutely breathtaking! 🌿 the breakfast is top-notch, especially the homemade preserves sourced from their garden.

The lodge had amazing gardens and a beautiful pool to enjoy. The bathroom was wonderful with a skylight and a double shower. The hosts were attentive and provided delicious homemade bread, preserves, and chutneys for breakfast. They even brought us spring water infused with lime and elderflower by the pool. The attention to detail in the lodge was outstanding, with a fusion of antiques and modern touches. The location nestled in the Taranaki hills was breathtaking. a marvelous experience.

Felt very welcome, nothing to complain about.

We had a fantastic stay at a lodge in a stunning, park-like setting with beautiful rural views. the interior decor was tasteful and interesting, and the breakfasts were delicious and well presented. the hosts provided exceptional service and hospitality, making our stay relaxing and comfortable.

We highly recommend this place and can't wait to return. Cons: Nothing at all 😊.

The view from the room was breathtaking, we could see the sunset in the horizon. The breakfast was delicious and there were homemade jams and granolas made with fresh fruits. the hosts were very hospitable, knowledgeable of the area and always willing to help.

The shared bathroom was a bit inconvenient, especially since the toilet was in the same room. This could be problematic if there were more guests in the hotel.

From the moment we arrived, we seemed like royalty. The hosts were great too make our stay comfortable and stress-free. The breakfast was sensational, with a wide variety of homemade jams and spreads, bread, muesli, and freshly brewed coffee. The room was beautifully designed, clean, and comfortable, with a door that opened onto a terrace overlooking the fine surroundings. The open-air swimming pool in the garden was a perfect spot to relax and unwind. The bathroom was spacious, well-equipped, and spotlessly clean. We regret not eating at the lodge as we saw the delicious dinner prepared for other guests. We highly recommend contacting the lodge in advance to arrange dining there. There is also plenty to do in the local area, and the hosts are full of helpful recommendations.

The bed, meals, hosts, furnishings, location.

Nothing negative to say.

The property is situated in a scenic location with stunning views of hills and valleys. Walks in the surrounding hills were enjoyable. the room decor was lovely and the bed and pillows were very comfortable.

The service was quite disappointing.

I absolutely loved the decoration at the lodge, it had a charming and cozy feel to it. The furniture and artwork were tasteful and added to the overall ambiance. The general areas were well-maintained and clean, and there were plenty of comfortable seating areas for us senior folks to relax and chat. The hotel's accessibility for senior people was top-notch, with ramps and handrails in place to assist with any mobility challenges.

I would have appreciated more handrails in the hallways.
