About

Falls Retreat serves North Island from 25 Waitawheta Road, Waikino, Waihi 3682, New Zealand, a setting in the countryside near the old gold-mining town of Waihi.

Visitors have given it 4.7 out of 5 across 523 reviews, a substantial and consistently positive record that reflects steady traffic over time. That volume of feedback suggests a place people return to rather than a one-off stop.

Reaching the venue is easiest by car, with Tauranga and Hamilton the closest of the main centres and Auckland further up the same road network. Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, so overseas visitors hiring a vehicle should take a moment to adjust before setting off.

Waikino sits inland from the Bay of Plenty coast, which puts it within a reasonable drive of the region's towns for anyone basing themselves in Tauranga or the surrounding area. The kitchen operates as a restaurant, and the setting suits a meal built around the local lamb, dairy and seafood that define cooking on these islands.
