Great location, amazing staff, wonderful food, comfortable accommodations. We will be back!

Great place with exceptional staff, they are just awesome

The most charming and beautiful place with touches that made our stay so comfortable. The manager Ethan went above and beyond. Highly recommend.

What a wonderful place to stay and dine at. The food is amazing and everything is so clean and comfy. Love the gardens and would be keen to return

Our room (#10) was huge, with wonderful antique furnishings. The lobby was furnished the same with comfortable seating for reading with a cup of tea or a wonderful gin and tonic from their range of NZ gins. The dinner was excellent.

Very comfortable rooms and beds. Continental breakfast supplied but quite basic for overall price. For example no special muesli or porridge or different yoghurts. Would have appreciated plunger or machine made coffee. No cheese knives for cheese board. Dinner was good. Cheerful service

I don’t know about the other rooms on offer, but both our bedroom and bathroom were furnished with an array of antique furniture which looked attractive, but was not particularly convenient or user friendly.

Clean hotel and restaurant. Spacious bathroom however airflow was non-existent therefore making the floor tiles extremely slippery and dangerous.Used the outdoor pool and spa. Very peaceful out there however there was a swarm of ants around the spa tub.Check out communication wasn’t so great. Hotels.com mentioned an 11am checkout however we were asked to leave earlier (around 10:30am on the day) due to the next guests checking in at 11:30am. They apologized for not letting us know but again, communication wasn’t great.

First time staying here and I can only just praise the hotel managers and staff for a lovely stay. Dined twice for dinner and highly recommend the restaurant as well. Great you can now have a one night stay too.

Spacious, clean and comfortable. Small and personable. Fine dining on site. Across from a beautiful beach.Bathroom and show floor very slippery, with no shower bars.

Very cute , small hotel that is very charming. Staff is very nice and friendly, rooms are simple but confortable

Ratanui Lodge is a gem. The Lodge is in a great location to explore Abel Tasman. The dining room has an excellent chef. The hosts are terrific, provide guidance on excursions and will make bookings. I highly recommend staying there.

Comfortable rooms in a beautiful location with hosts Steve and Paul making our stay very enjoyable. Dinner was very special and breakfast hearty in a convivial atmosphere. This is a great place to stay and highly recommend it to all visiting Abel Tasman National Park.

Beautiful property: rooms and gardens. Not ocean facing but still a beautiful spot and loved the fact that is was a small boutique hotel with only 10 rooms.

Beautiful place. Steve was very helpful and welcoming after a long journey. Highly recommend!

Beautiful 2 night stay. Exceptionally comfortable beds. Steve was a great host. He gave us a lot of useful information about the surrounding area and trips that we could do. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

I can't recommend this highly enough. The superb service and attention to detail is impeccable. Super comfy beds, great shower, lovely toiletries and tasteful decor are better than a 5 star hotel. The food is wonderful too!

From the offer of tea or coffee on my arrival (which I enjoyed overlooking a well tendered garden) to the exceptional care and attention to make me and others feel welcome it was no average accommodation lodge. Breakfast was a total delight and dinner highlighted New Zealand produce and culinary skills - the duck (served that particular night) was fantastic. I’m so glad I (very) spontaneously booked (and extended) my stay.

This property is amazing. From the carefully thought out design of the grounds and rooms, to the amazing service from Steve and staff, I thoroughly recommend Ratanui Lodge.

Excellent stay. Beautiful property and beautiful rooms. Check in was a breeze and the property managers/owners were very kind and welcoming. Breakfast was a lovely affair with gluten free options and tons of choices and fruit. Great location right across from a beach.

Very relaxing. Clean as. Great pool and proximity to the beach.

An excellent stay with an excellent host. The room was very comfortable and the meals superb.

I would recommend this place on Steve and his constant efforts to ensure all gets have a great stay alone, but the rooms are large and clean, the pool is great if you want a break from the sea which is only feet away. Steve one of the owners was great, nothing was too much effort and his knowledge on the area was very useful.

Steve, one of the owners, appeared to be everywhere. Greeted us with cookies on arrival, very knowledgeable about local activities (which he booked for us). The rooms were spacious, great shower. They served a 3 course dinner everynight (too much food for us) but we did have a fantastic cheese tray with wine on the terrace. Very friendly staff. All round great place to stay when exploring Tasman.

Above and beyond personalized care ! Very friendly and helpful !
