Heck they even have dyson hair dryer and room fan (heater, cooler). The owner is kind and talkative, he made sure we feel comfortable.

Positive: This was the best place we stayed at out of 9 properties in New Zealand. The location and grounds were so beautiful with large green lawns and a mountain view that we could see from our room. It was so quiet and peaceful. Our rooms were large. The kitchen facilities had everything we needed. The bathroom was modern with nice ceramic tiling and a strong, hot shower. The owner, Andy, is so helpful. He booked a last minute helicopter flight for us.

Negative: Nothing. It was perfect!

Summary: We loved Rainforest Motel!
