Onuku Farm Hostel

Great hostel! We slept in a double bedroom which was a cabin at three minutes walk from the main house. A lovely walk I must add. Private toilets for this cabin were a few seconds away. The view and atmosphere at this place is excellent. So if you like a laid back environment with lots of New Zealand sheep surrounding you -- then this is your thing!

Imagine adventurous sheepland directly to the coast, golden sunsets, playing volleyball until the sun comes down, calls of bellbird and cicadas. With one word: Onuku. This place is great in two ways. The setting is just, well, like paradise (and could you imagine paradise with sandflies? No! And really -- there're no sandflies). The second way are the people there -- Tom, Jeff, and Steve (the "roots" of Onuku, I got to know) plus the people who come there. They're all so friendly and funny. I really liked my time here and when I come back to NZ Onuku will be one of the first places I'm gonna visit again.

This is the best hostel i ever stayed at in my life. The hosts are very welcoming, the views are awesome, and the atmosphere is amazing. Oh and the volleyball -- don't miss it! The real farm experience, i loved the pet lamb and Babe.

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in (I've been there for one week 11/2005) -- great atmosphere, nice local walks, stunning views, funny volleyball-game every evening, lovely people -- just chill out

I stayed here in my tent in 2002. Lovely place, with a million dollar view of the volcanic harbor. Damn, that was such a wonderful trip - I'd like to go back there at this moment, which unfortunately is not practical at this time. Cheers.

Excellent hotel. Great chill out place, with lovely cabins, horse rides, and stuff. A bit easier if you have a car, though.

It has the best atmosphere ever! I had a great time here. I hope to come back someday. Love to all the great people from the farm!

This is the best place I've been to in New Zealand! It's like paradise! Big, big kiss to Tristan!!!
