What a wonderful review. Thank you so much. You are so right when you say a 4-night stay is so important to really get a good view of Northland. There is so much to do in this very under-experienced region of New Zealand that even 4 nights may well not be long enough. Chris has been perfecting some new fruit... More

My wife and I had spent 24 days in New Zealand [NZ] before coming to 88 Lodge in Kerikeri for three of our five final nights in NZ. In that time we had stayed in many wonderful B & Bs, accommodations, and motels—and we found 88 Lodge to be among the ranks of excellent NZ B & Bs. It has... More

We are so elated and appreciative that you have obviously taken so much time to prepare your kind and fulsome review. To class us as ‘amongst the ranks of excellent NZ B&B’s’ is such an accolade. The geography of the bay and local areas does not place us ‘on the water’ but as you say we are ideally located for... More

The lodge was so clean. The garden was very beautiful and more importantly The hosts were very kind and friendly. There are many places to visit around Kerikeri and 88 lodge is pretty much close to many of them. I am very sure that you will enjoy your stay there.

Ok, so my partner and I are generally not the 'b&b type' but thought it was time to try something different. We stayed in The Majestic Suite and in my opinion, definately worth the small extra cost. However the real difference here was the incredible service given by Geoff & Chris. All the positive comments you have read prior to... More

Thank you so much for the kind words on your Trip Advisor for us. The Majestic Suite is our biggest and best suite and as you say well worth the extra. We always try to look after our guests in the best possible way and being ‘at home’ hosts it’s always a pleasure to have splendid people like you around. More

It was a lovely place to stay while we explored the Northland. Chris and Geoff were very knowledgable about the area and advised us well with local restaurants.
