waitomo cave bungalow

4.1(124 reviews)

About

waitomo cave bungalow in North Island sits at 1 Waitomo Caves Road, Hangatiki 3977, New Zealand, an apartment let in the countryside near the Waitomo area.

Guests rate it 4.1 out of 5 across 124 reviews, a solid record for a small property. Hangatiki sits inland from Hamilton and Tauranga, with Auckland, Rotorua and Taupo within a reasonable drive, while Wellington and Napier lie further south and east. The bungalow has built its name on proximity to the Waitomo area and the ease of self-catering. First-time visitors should expect a quiet rural setting and a car, since the surrounding roads are not served by frequent public transport.

Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands. Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture.

Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, and the surrounding ocean keeps both summer heat and winter frost moderate.
