Special stay

The grounds of the property are beautiful and we enjoyed using the amenities like the tennis court, pool and hot tub. It was also very nice that they would lend items like shovels for use at hot water beach free of charge. I enjoyed the stay.

Amazingly, every hotel we stayed at so far has been really wonderful and excellent in hospitality, cleanliness, professional service and staff!
ANUJ, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet setting. Very limited dinning options, a big drive to anywhere
Antony, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice comfortable clean room set in a beautiful wooded location on a hillside. Lots of birdsong to sit and listen to on the attached deck. Very nice beach within walking distance. on-site restaurant has wonderful setting and ambience, food is good but not great. Pauanui is a little too quiet for my taste... only one road in and out, and only 2 restaurants open in the evening (other than the property), but I wouldn't ding the hotel for that.
David, 2-night trip

Far too many stairs
Trevor, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Outstanding is the only to describe this property . The treetops rooms are all up the steep driveway however staff are only to happy to transfer all guests with the golf cart. The meals in Miah restaurant are international standard
Kevin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great property close to the beach. Rooms are awesome cabanas nestled into the woods. Really awesome nature around us. Only thing is its an uphill climb to all rooms.They do offer golf cart lifts on request to the rooms and let you take your car upto the to unload luggage. Rooms are spacious and very comfortable with balconies. Restaurant is good could be much better with a little organization. Overall we had a great stay
Paolo, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I feel like this place was pretty special a few years ago. The resort is built on the side of a huge hill, and, i'm guessing, used to be serviced by staff that would run you up in a golf cart, etc. - They seem understaffed, now, and you're kinda on your own for everything. If you're a hiker, and under 30, this might work for you. Otherwise, get ready to climb. - I'm not exaggerating. The cottage itself was cute, and nestled in the ferns, but, everything seems a little worn and dated.

Hotel en montagne offrant un décor tropical magique. Piscine et bain de cèdre chauffé. Restaurant sur place de qualité. Emplacement très tranquille nécessitant transport pour toute sortie Le site est en forte pente et convient peu aux personnes à mobilité réduite.

Linda zona pero el hotel le falta actualizarse

El hotel está dentro de un ámbito de la naturaleza excelente. La habitación está ubicada lejos del loby. Nosotros llegamos tipo 21hs y tuvimos que cargar con nuestras maletas por escaleras y en subida. No hay servicio de ayuda. La habitación es amplia pero antigua,

This resort is very unique…it’s like staying in a treehouse! Very comfortable and quiet. Pool is great! They even have free laundry, which was most appreciated. Make sure that you can walk stairs and hills if you want to stay here. We would come back in a heartbeat!
