We arrived at about 9pm, but the office had left out our key and paperwork for us. We went straight to the hot tub and swam in the pool since they closed at 10pm and we wanted to enjoy some of the amenities. Both were very nice. The pool was warm enough for my daughters to swim in, but a... More

We are 2 friends on a girls getaway weekend for 2 nights - but we could have easily stayed for longer (if it wasn't for husbands, kids and jobs calling us back!). We booked a 1 bedroom chalet and had Unit 12. This gave us a king bed in the bedroom and a single bed in the living room which... More

We stayed 2 nights at Kimi Ora...the rooms were spotlessly clean...but very tired. You can tell the resort is 20 years old. The staff were friendly & we made use of the spa, pools, sauna, steam room etc. The steam room smelled musty & mouldy so we didn't stay in there for very long. The lay out of the resort... More

We stayed here about sixteen years ago and already had a wonderful stay then. We were happy to still find it up and running and decided to stay a few days. The view from the chalets and restaurant is just beautiful and calms the soul. Our compliments go to the very efficient and helpful staff and also to the Chef... More

This was our second stay at Kimi Ora, the last around 6 years ago. This time we stayed four nights and did not want to leave. The resort is just as good, the rooms were spacious, clean and well equiped. The view over Kaiteriteri is just fantastic. We made use of the indoor pool and the spa pool which were... More

Our hosts at Everton B&B suggested we try this restaurant and we were so glad we did! It was the best food we had on our trip! Creative, beautiful and delicious! Portions were perfect, atmosphere comfortable, pretty views and our waitress (Erica) was such a delight! We ate there 2 of the 3 nights we were in town after not... More

We booked a chalet very last minute at Kimi Ora for our "mini-moon". And what a find! I had seen the restaurant and spa advertised on previous visits to Kaiteri but wasn't aware there was a resort. The chalet was extremely comfortable, clean and well-appointed set in a beautiful bush location with great views across Kaiteri beach. It was wonderful... More

We were very disappointed. It was run down, dirty and overpriced. It may have been nice 30 or 40 years ago but it doesn't look like it's been renovated since. There are much nicer places to stay closer to Abel Tasman. Keep driving!

My wife (becoming a vegetarian) and my son's girlfriend (vegetarian) both wanted to visit the restaurant at the Spa for an evening meal. As a confirmed meat eater I was dreading it. It turned out to be an excellent choice. The food (try the Tofu Curry) and the service was excellent, the atmosphere was very relaxing and the views across... More
