Heavenly Hacienda
Our upstairs apartment was spacious with a lounge, dining area, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and its own balcony with chairs and table. It was well equipped, comfortable and full of character. The location is excellent, handy to Hahei, Cathedral Cove, Hotwater Beach and the landing. Our hostess was friendly and generous. We rate it as one of the best we have ever stayed in and will definitely stay there again.

Wonderful Mexican style bach
The bach was well set up and equipped(even had spades for Hot Water Beach). It was very clean and comfortable. The Mexican style of the property works and suits its environment. Tracey was a really friendly host and made us feel very welcome. We were able to wander the grounds and help ourselves to the ripe fruit in the garden. We were sorry that we had to move on after 3 nights.

Wonderful, quaint, peaceful, beautiful, tidy, stylish too
We had a wonderfully peaceful getaway here. The environment is absolutely calm and peacerful, with lush greenery all around, and the Hot Water beach and wonderful places to discover, eat and drink very nearby. The Hacienda was beautiful, neat and tidy, and thoughtfully decorated and equipped. Dave and Tracey are amazing. A beautiful hideout for people stressed out from city life. We enjoyed every minute of our trip and hope to return again.

Still great
We stayed here at Easter time and really enjoyed it, so we decided to come back for longer this time. It’s such a good spot, it’s so close to Tairua, Hahei and Whitianga and still plenty to do when it’s raining. Tracey is a fabulous host, you can’t want for anything as she has thought of everything. It is also so clean and spotless!

So clean and tidy!
We stayed here for 2 nights over Easter. It was such a lovely place for a get away. The place was incredibly clean and tidy and it was a perfect size for our family. It has absolutely everything you need. It was a lovely rural spot with beautiful fruit trees but a close drive to Hahei, Whitianga and Tairua. Tracey is a great host and very easy to deal with. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a great stay.

We really enjoyed our time at La Hacienda. Everything was perfectly arranged. One thing, I wouldn't want to be staying at the height of summer as it is 'upstairs' and there is no air conditioning.
