We had a wonderful 3-night stay at The Rocks Chalets. The chalet was spacious, comfortable, and had a lovely outdoor area to relax in. The location is good—quiet yet conveniently close to some great walks.
One of the highlights of our stay was seeing a stunning starling murmuration, an unexpected and mesmerising treat. Another memorable moment was visiting the little cave on-site at night. The entrance is lit with charming fairy lights, and inside we some glowworms!

Location, clean, roomy, felt like a little home with everything we needed. Nice outdoor area. It wasn't far to the beach at all and it was great getting takeaways from Takaka and eating them on the beach.

When you come out of pupu springs rd turn left and go to the pupu hydro tailrace track. not to be missed. Before walking the track go to the power station and read about it. you will get a much better understanding if you do this before the walk also suggest you do the walk clockwise

I loved every minute in this welcoming, peaceful, loving hippie community! Check out the notice board in town and attend events with the locals-- it's worth it! I was able to hitchhike all over Golden Bay, no problem! There are so many beautiful hikes and nature spots in the area. Also, stop in for a yoga class in town! Next to the studio, there's a smoothie place called Mermaid Beach House. Tell the owner, Amba, that a girl named Jenna sent you! Everything she makes is divine! I can't wait to go back!

Great little town with a lot to do around it.
Great little town with a lot to do around it. Try to visit the Labarith caves and smaller walks around the area. Most of the shops and galleries are shit on Saturday and Sunday. It has a large supermarket and great places to eat.
This is the main base area for the Heaphy walk.

A beautiful peaceful place.
A beautiful peaceful place. Well located for visiting Golden Bay, Abel Tasman and the fabulous Farewell Spit tour.
The waterfalls and springs are both beautiful.
If you visit on Mondays there are limited places to eat in the evening, so I would recommend making a reservation.

Very charming town.
Very charming town. Wish we could spend more time to explore shops and cafes. People are very kind and helpful.
We checked in late, but Mohua Motel manager found us units to stay and gave us a discount for the second night. In the morning, we were offered more clean towels in case we would like to go swimming.
We had dinner at Dangerous Kitchen. The food and the atmosphere are awesome.
My husband bought a new pair of shoes he loves at the fishing gear shop. The lady looked into the store room and found a right size for him.

Golden Bay has a lot to offer with quite a few boutique cafes in Takaka, lovely beaches, and interesting natural beauty including Te Waikoropupu Springs which has some of the world’s clearest water. Going further west through Collingwood to Farewell Spit a short walk to Wharariki Beach is well worth the effort.
A beautiful area well worth visiting.

Quirky and comfortable b&b. We were made to feel welcome the moment we stepped inside. Mark creates a friendly, chilled atmosphere and we enjoyed his company. Great breakfasts and perfect location to walk into various eateries in Takaka and to explore the glorious coastline, nearby springs and waterfall over in Abel Tasman. Superb!
The motel was in an excellent position for Takaka amenities. The owners were super friendly and helpful such a lovely family. Extremely helpful and very caring for our comfort at the motel. The room was very clean and well kept with excellent facilities.
Lovely place that is a short walk from Takaka town, super clean chalet with everything you need, nothing has been missed! Comfy beds and beautiful gardens with glow worm cave! Will stay again!
We loved our stay in Chalet Karaka. It was comfortable, very private and lovely having the trees right outside.
Golden Bay is beautiful and Takaka has great places to eat.
