At the inn, each room includes a balcony with a mountain view. Rooms are equipped with a kettle, while some rooms include a kitchen with a dishwasher, an oven and a microwave. At Maitai Whare Iti - Adventure Cabins & House every room comes with bed linen and towels. Location was amazing. Remote and peaceful. Nice to be disconnected and relaxed. Our dog Penny loved it and it was so nice to be able to take her on holiday instead of leaving her behind. We will be back!
