the first time we stay in air b&b wish to try and was surprised us
4.0 / 5.0
Our host was amazing, lovely continental breakfast with freshly brewed coffee. Nothing was a problem, happy to chat with you and gave us great dinner recommendations. The driveway up to the property is quite long and crosses over a working farm (definitely better in a high vehicle) you really do feel away from it all nestled in the rainforest.
I found the room a little chilly, although it did have a oil heater. The bathroom was recently renovated and was lovely but cold under foot on the tiles. Slippers recommended. Would if been better if there was a bathroom heater and heated towel rail.
If you are a light sleeper I would recommend ear plugs as you can hear talking in the next room.

It is a very quiet accomondation in the middle of the rain forest. The owners are welcoming people who made our stay very comfortable and enjoable. We had no time for the walk but this would be a "must do" for next time.

The location was simply wonderful. So incredibly quiet and peaceful. Having the place to myself was a bonus. the purpose was to have time out and just relax which is exactly what I did.
A spa bath in my room would have been nice :) but the shower was awesome.

Host lady and her son were very welcoming. They were very friendly and kind hearted.its 2 km off the main road. 2 km long driveway. And boy was waiting for us on main road to give us direction. So very helpful. House is located in a piece full environment. So I would highly recommend this place.

4.5 / 5.0
The staff (Samara & Emanuel) were exceptional to listen, understand our requirements and ensure they were accommodated. The property is at least 2 Kms inside from the main road, but it has great views and access to its own bush walks.
The drive going in and out.

We had a great stay at the Patuha Lodge. The hosts are very welcoming and attentive and the property is beautiful. We would highly recommend this bed and breakfast.
The property is accessed via a farm track, so could be slow going or difficult for very low vehicles.
4.5 / 5.0
Breakfast had everything you needed . Willing to get stuff if not there as my boy only liked cornflakes the next day they were available.
Rooms clean and very quiet.
If there was a microwave available on the hallway kitchenette
If all bush walks were sign posted to where walk begin.
