The garden was beautiful. The compost bin is a huge plus! We used the BBQ every night. The extra towels, blankets, pillows and toilet paper was great. Loved that they provided paper towels and cleaning products a long with pots and pans.

Exactly what we needed, somewhere that didn't kill my wallet but also was comfy and quiet. I was up finding my dad who had moved there so was a very emotional time.

Walking distance to town clean comfortable great place to stay
Great little town with a lot to do around it. Try to visit the Labarith caves and smaller walks around the area. Most of the shops and galleries are shit on Saturday and Sunday. It has a large supermarket and great places to eat.
This is the main base area for the Heaphy walk.

A beautiful peaceful place.
A beautiful peaceful place. Well located for visiting Golden Bay, Abel Tasman and the fabulous Farewell Spit tour.
The waterfalls and springs are both beautiful.
If you visit on Mondays there are limited places to eat in the evening, so I would recommend making a reservation.

Very charming town.
Very charming town. Wish we could spend more time to explore shops and cafes. People are very kind and helpful.
We checked in late, but Mohua Motel manager found us units to stay and gave us a discount for the second night. In the morning, we were offered more clean towels in case we would like to go swimming.
We had dinner at Dangerous Kitchen. The food and the atmosphere are awesome.
My husband bought a new pair of shoes he loves at the fishing gear shop. The lady looked into the store room and found a right size for him.

Golden Bay has a lot to offer with quite a few boutique cafes in Takaka, lovely beaches, and interesting natural beauty including Te Waikoropupu Springs which has some of the world’s clearest water. Going further west through Collingwood to Farewell Spit a short walk to Wharariki Beach is well worth the effort.
A beautiful area well worth visiting.

It would have been very easy to fill in a couple of days around Takaka with visits to Farewell Spit, Anatoki Salmon Farm etc. Ample opportunities to eat and drink the local fare.
The drive into Golden Bay over the Takaka Hill also offered fantastic views and the chance to explore a limestone cave.
Waikoropupu Springs is a must do visit with great information provided.

The Golden Bay area of NZ has a very interesting past, both from a geographical point of view and a colonisation perspective (often directly linked). Gold, coal, iron ore, graphite, asbestos (!), paint and cement manufacture, all influenced the influx of early settlers and those seeking to make their fortunes!
Evidence of these past activities still remain making interesting exploration opportunities for visitors.
Natural phenomena such at the Waikoropupu Springs and Farewell Spit are certainly worth visiting, the latter being both an historic trip together with an opportunity to view present day wild life in the area.

Fantastic hosts, very welcoming & helpful.
Great location, peaceful yet just a short walk or 2-minute drive to main street in Takaka for all shops, cafes & restaurants.
Honeymoon cabin is a big cabin with private garden outdoor bathtub (bubble bath & candles) & BBQ, hosts had considered everything you might need during your stay.
Pizza oven for guests to share.
We enjoyed the peaceful location and the host was great and really welcoming and helpful during our stay and also when we needed to arrive quite late in the day at the accommodation. Loved the location and the small town of Takaka has some lovely shops, cafes and restaurants to explore, then a little further away the beautiful Golden Bay which was stunning.
The motel was in an excellent position for Takaka amenities. The owners were super friendly and helpful such a lovely family. Extremely helpful and very caring for our comfort at the motel. The room was very clean and well kept with excellent facilities.
Very central to the Tākaka shops, restaurants and supermarket. A great base for exploring the Golden Bay region. Comfortable, clean and cost effective for group accommodation. They have a wonderful host manager.
