The separate cottage, at the back of the main house, has a great view. Karikari Lodge is located in a very beautiful seaside area. It is run by a delightful and helpful couple, Paul and Katalniya.

Pohutukawa Room
A great place to relax. Lovely setting, very private and peaceful. The Pohutukawa room has it's own kitchenette and a private bathroom outside which was very clean. Breakfast supplied which included cereals and fresh bread with butter and spreads. I would recommend staying here.
