Truly an awesome place to stay. Friendly and welcoming hosts, beautiful gardens, super well equipped rooms and two superb spa pools to relax in. Also handy is the lovely Irish pub and restaurant 5 minutes walk away. I highly recommend this accommodation.

Everything was wonderful! Every amenity you could possibly need. Comfortable bed! Jen is very hospitable and the two sweet dogs complete the package! I can’t wait to return next year.

Lovely room overlooking gorgeous gardens and places to relax. The owner, Jen, told me TE MAHURU means a place of rest and renewal, and that it was. Hosts are fantastic and the place is perfect for serenity. We really enjoyed the hot tub and star- gazing too, as this spot is one of only 23 designated Dark Sky observation spots in the world. Truly a unique and lovely experience all around. Good breakfast too.

Te Mahuru is a most exceptional, beautiful, very clean and overall, a perfect place to stay. Jen went out of her way to be accommodating and we give thanks t the highest rating possible. The gardens and views were spectacular, the hot tubs were lovely and very clean and the breakfast was delicious. Homemade bread each morning and plenty of great choices. The patio off our room was very private and comfortable for sitting with a cup of tea gazing at the beautiful mountains in the background. Overall, this was our favorite place to stay on our trip.

Meuilleur rapport /qualité prix pour ce logement. Le lieu est paisible et très jolie. Il faut y aller sans hesitation. La patronne est très attentionnée.

Te Mahuru Tetreat is a jewel in Kaikoura’s crown. A perfect location, easy to get to and not far out of Kaikōura itself. The accommodation provides a high standard of facilities and is immaculate. It provided everything we need for our stay and the use of the hot tub and do some star gazing is phenomenal - a must if you are staying at Te Mahuru Retreat. Nothing is too much for the host and the breakfast is well catered. We had a very comfortable and relaxing staying, the only thing is we wished we had stayed for longer. You will not be disappointed and would highly recommend this accommodation if you are staying in Kaikoura and the surrounding area.

Tolle Unterkunft mit riesigem Garten, Hot Tub und leckerem Frühstück. Jen ist eine hervorragende Gastgeberin! Für unser Baby gab es ein Babybett und viele Spielsachen.

Im schönen Neuseeland ist dieses B&B ein eher seltenes Fundstück. Es liegt nur wenige hundert Meter von der SH 1 entfernt und trotzdem hört man nur naturnahe Geräusche. Es besteht aus wenig Gästezimmern, die dezent dekoriert und praktisch eingerichtet sind. Durch die großen Fensterfronten, die meist zum sehr gepflegten Garten hin ausgerichtet sind, hat man einen schönen Ausblick. Jen, die Inhaberin, ist sehr freundlich, gut informiert und den Gästen auch sehr zugewandt. Sie hat alles im Blick und im Griff. Ihr Frühstücksbüffet ist liebevoll zusammengestellt. Gegessen wird an großen Tischen, so dass auch ein (Info-)Austausch zwischen den Gästen zustandekommen kann. Alles wunderbar familiär. Zwei Hot Tubes können genutzt werden. Auch das trägt zur Entspannung bei. Erwähnenswert ist auch die Möglichkeit, Wäsche zu waschen und einen Trockner zu benutzen. Eine Küche steht den Gästen zur Verfügung. In diesem Retreat kann man wirklich eine schöne Zeit verbringen.
