The Kaipara lodge was very much a luxury stay for us incl everything we were looking for to relax. Everything had been thought of down to the finer details by the hosts making it a stressless and easy care stay. The lodge is immaculate and has everything you need and don’t need inside. Upon entering we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and a personalised note welcoming us and our stay. The fridge was stocked with small condiments such as chocolates, butter, milk (2 varieties) chilled spring water and a large container of coffee pods to choose from at your leisure. The buggy included in the stay was top notch and something of a rarity. We loved how the lodge is pet friendly which is also a rarity when finding a place to stay. Every time we need a get away this is where we’ll be choosing. Highly recommended.
