Apartment room was tiny with barely room to move around the bed, but quiet and dark for sleeping. Like that it was walking distance to places to eat. Wished coffee had been supplied for both nights we were there and that sugar packets were not old and caked.

"From the four hotels we stayed during our short trip to NZ, this provided us by far with the best experience.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Rakaia holiday package cost?
You'll find cheap prices from AU$1,018 on Expedia for your Rakaia escape. However, factors like the season, length of stay and your choice of hotel will influence how much your holiday to Rakaia costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Rakaia?
May, June and July are great times to look for cheap Rakaia holiday packages. Travelling in less busy months means you can generally find lower prices on hotels and flights.
How many days is enough for Rakaia?
With a well-organised travel plan, you can easily tick off the top Rakaia sights in a few days. But if you prefer to discover hidden gems or go on day trips, think about booking your Rakaia holiday for longer.
How to find the best Rakaia package deals?
Finding a cheap Rakaia package deal is a breeze with Expedia. Once you've entered your destination and travel dates under our "Packages" tab, set your budget range, apply some filters and browse what's available. You can customise your search by "Amenities," "Property type," "Traveller experience" and more. Sort the results by "Price: low to high" to discover the most affordable Rakaia package deals. Want a simple trick to score the biggest savings? Be flexible with your departure dates and consider going away on a weekday, when prices are typically lower.
