The views out towards Auckland city were quite stunning. Quiet and remote - perfect for a getaway from the city.
New ZealandWe were so surprised by the view of the room and the restaurant. The breakfast is excellent. This hotel is surrounded by forest. If you like to wake up by birds chirping, this is for you!
New ZealandWe stayed in the villa which was very spacious and had great views over the Waitakeres, the sea and the city. It was very private and well appointed.
New ZealandDuncan and his team are EXCELLENT! I was booked to have my wedding at a different wedding venue however the venue cancelled 4.5 hours prior to my ceremony. Duncan was very approachable and helpful about the situation. We ended up having an awesome afternoon thanks to Waitakere Resort. All of our guests loved it! I stayed in the deluxe room and the views were amazing! The room was very spacious and clean. Staff were super friendly.

AustraliaFantastic room. Very comfortable bed, big modern bathroom, and the best shower. Had a fantastic view of the bush and Auckland city.
United States of AmericaFirst of all is the view - just fantastic! Incredible! Also sauna was great: quite big. just one minor thing is the pool is quite far from the sauna.
