Our family of four stayed at the Mapua chalets for four nights. Firstly, our hosts were very friendly and obliging. The chalet was very comfortable and clean with views that were beautiful by day and spectacular by night. We will also remember soaking in the hot tub and absorbing the scenery, for years to come. The chalets feels remote and... More

We stayed at Mapua for one night, and really wished we had booked a few extra nights here.

High expectations from all reviews, but we ranked it the worst accommodation of 14 places we stayed in NZ. Sure location is good, hot tub and pool, but chalet was pretty tired and run down with broken pots and kitchen needed a facelift., shower pretty basic miserable affair. Sitting and bedrooms needed refurb or good clean and dirty laundry room.... More
