Book Milnthorpe hotels

Out of all the places we stayed during our three weeks on the South Island, Ratanui Lodge provided the best service and hospitality. Firstly, the staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much for them and the two ladies we dealt with went out of their way to give recommendations and ensure our stay was fantastic. We were on honeymoon and we were left a card and bottle of bubbly in the room which was a lovely touch, as was the robes and bottled water in the fridge. The breakfast is probably the best hotel breakfast you’ll ever get! A la carte options but I opted for the blueberry pancakes both days. The location is ideal, close to so many activities and in my opinion the right side of the Takaka Hill to make driving the area a much easier task (as opposed to basing yourself in Kaiteriteri). So many stunning walks and quiet beaches nearby. We loved Wainui Falls and Wharariki Beach. Sadly the weather didn’t allow for us to go Kayaking but I’m sure this would be a great activity to do. I really hope we can return from the UK one day and I would happily spend longer here! If we lived in NZ this could easily be a super week away. Absolutely amazing experience.

Clean & maintained motel close to town.

The serenity was overwhelming! The accommodation so comfy from the bed; the fire; the kitchen basics and the general vibe! So relaxing. Thanks Reen

We had a wonderful family time at the Library Batch. It's a peaceful, cozy and special place. It's very well equipped and tidy. It's welcoming with a heart and soul. Surrounded by a beautiful nature and arts! We'll be back!

Clean and tidy bach with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Beautiful view out to the estuary, will definitely stay again. Thank you

So beautiful on the beach a true slice of paradise.
