When booking this place I didn't check the location (besides knowing it was in Whakatane). It was 15 mins outside of Whakatane. This turned out to be a good thing. Sadhu's Tea House is a slice of heaven situated on lush green hills over looking Wainui. Located between Whakatane & Opotoki, it's easy to travel to any one of the many beaches & walks in the area. The cabin had all the amenities and creature comforts needed and our host, Kelly, helped us immediately when the new shower was running too hot. We enjoyed a bit of horse riding which Kelly made time for despite being busy. Our stay here was serene and peaceful enjoying marshmellows & wine next to the outside fire. By the end of our stay we didn't wish to leave. Highly recommend this to anyone travelling through the area that wants a humble place to lay their head.
