Great facilities. Outdoor bath, swimming hole, and location were the draw cards and did not disappoint. Well appointed with a twin shower and comfortable bed.

Barbara's welcome was friendly and warm-hearted to this beautiful slice of heaven just outside of Piopio. My room was well situated beside the spotless bathroom with its own balcony with access & deck chairs. The large bed was comfy. Breakfast was hearty with cereals, toast & farm eggs. I would highly recommend the homemade damson plum jam... I even got to chat with farmer Leo as he was about to attend to the hungry calves. There was a lovely family atmosphere and I felt very much at home.

Aramatai Gardens

Te Kuiti (Near Piopio)

Set in Te Kuiti, within 44 km of Waitomo Glow Worm Caves, Aramatai Gardens offers accommodation with air conditioning. Boasting full-day security, this property also provides guests with a picnic...

Aramatai Gardens could be described as a country cottage sitting between a botanical park on one side and farmland on the other. The park is extensive with ponds and bridges, and many interesting trees and plants. You could spend an hour walking and admiring this attraction. If you stay one night only, I would suggest checking in as early as possible to have enough time to see the park and falls. Bring food for dinner though because there are no food options nearby. You cook breakfast yourself from products supplied by Jill. Homemade brownies are one of the best I ever had. The only minor thing I would suggest is one more slice of bread for breakfast.

The views from the hot tub in the morning with the sun shining, drinking complimentary sparling wine, was a perfect way to start the day. Own entrance, terrace and access to sauna in the back of the property felt very private. The host has truly created the perfect setting for a relaxing couple’s retreat.

Very comfortable bed, welcoming hosts, nice views over the countryside, loved the spa. Really enjoyed sitting outside for breakfast with bird song in the bush next to the room. Simple breakfast supplies of cereal, toast, plenty fruit and yoghurt. And even a little bottle of wine and beer plus juice which we didn't have but appreciated them being supplied if wanted. Friendly dog!

    Piopio a nice little town.

    Piopio a nice little town. The motel is just off the main road so not disturbed by traffic noise. Having the restaurant along side the motel is a bonus. A nice drive out to the falls which were in full torrent due to all the rain. Very I.pressive.

    A small town in a lovely rural area.

    A small town in a lovely rural area. A decent restaurant for dinner and a great café for breakfast or lunch. We have often broken journeys from Tāmaki Makaurau to Taranaki or other places further south, here. Great to charge your car while staying at the Fat Owl or by using the OpenLoop fast charger.

    Great place to base yourself for either a quiet or adventurous visit to the area. So much nearby really in a quiet yet bustling town. Three hidden gems - The Cosmopolitan Club, Fat Pigeon Cafe and Piopio Berry Orchard!!

    This is a small town with a big heart.

    This is a small town with a big heart. Our first stop was the Fat Pigeon Cafe for lunch - delicious food with a view of the park. We then walked up and down the two sides of the street, stopping to look at the restored old school bus and poster board, the art gallery, craft shop and op shops before having a hot chocolate from the coffee cart at the other end of the street. For dinner we ate at The Night Owl restaurant- loved the decor, the food portions were HUGE and super tasty,

    Bàrbara is a lovely, friendly and very accommodating host who made us feel like part of her family. The location is perfect for tourists and for travellers wishing to purchase seasonal berries and asparagus. So close to famous Waitomo Caves, it is the perfect stopover spot. We will definitely call in again when next we travel through Piopio. Thanks Bàrbara and Leo. You are amazing!!!
