Review by hotel critic
Wai Ora offered a refreshing escape during my recent stay, combining luxury with undeniable value. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly and escorted to a clean, soundproof room complete with a comfortable bed and a fantastic view of the pool and lake. The little lounge and balcony were perfect for unwinding. The highlights included a superb massage at the spa, providing a much-needed touch of relaxation amid the native plants. The outdoor swimming pool was also a great spot to unwind, and I appreciated the quick room service. My family enjoyed cozy evenings with a wide selection of movies on the flat-screen TV, ideal for a rainy day. While the location is about a 15-minute drive from town, the peaceful surroundings were worth it. For those conscious of budget, considering the amenities like free Wi-Fi and complimentary toiletries ensures you're getting good bang for your buck. While Wai Ora blends luxury with comfort, the experience reaffirms that sometimes, a little extra investment leads to a genuinely satisfying stay. It's certainly a place I'd consider revisiting.
