View was fantastic. Could not fault the service, even offered to pick myself and my two BFFs and take us to the restaurant and drive us home after our dinner. We had to postpone our dinner as we were too engrossed in our fabulous view. Restaurant was full with a wedding as well and we received great service and a... More

We stayed in a 2 bedroom chalet overlooking the beautiful black sand beach...sunrise and sunset were spectacular!! Spectacular views were complemented by exquisitely clean accomodations. Kitchenette and living room were perfect for a family and the bedrooms/ bathrooms were pretty large. Very good restaurant! Loved the breakfast!

I live locally and went with a friend for the Spa and Dine package offered by the newly opened (2012) Bersantai Day Spa. The day spa is absolutely beautiful, perched high on the hills looking down the west coast beach of Kariotahi, The design and decor of Bersantai is stunning and the atmosphere is so relaxing. We were greeted by... More

We have been to Agave Restaurant a number of times and have always found the food to be consistently good. We have tried both the a la carte menu and the StoneGrill option, both of which we enjoyed immensely. The view is stunning, especially on a gorgeous day (or evening). The only bug-bear we have is that if the doors... More

The conference room at the top of the hill is a lovely place for a work meeting. It has inspiring views and it is a good size for 20 pax. The catering was of the standard that you would expect. Food in the restaurant was lovely including the breakfasts and the lunches. There was plenty and was of a high... More

When you go to a premium location such as this place, you are prepared to pay for a premium rate and you'd hope that you'll be getting good if not premium service from the facility providers ( eg restaurant, accomodation and event organisers). However, this place is no better... More

We came here to have lunch. The great view is awesome. Concerning the lunch: we had starters and a main and both were very tasty. Nothing to complain and worth the price. The table outside was a little bit dirty (chocolate from breakfast ?), the service was ok, but all in all just average. What we didn't like was a... More

We spent two nights here for a Friday wedding. The meals at the Agave restaurant were great, as was the catering for the wedding reception. We were in a double bedroom chalet. It is all spread over a few steep unpaved roads that are one car width, so you need to take care in case of oncoming traffic. There is... More

Went for a family wedding............and in the end; really wanted to stay for any reason I could manufacture. You know how you get told a family member is getting married, and you would really rather have prostate surgery then attend? Well a hop across the ditch from Sydney to Auckland. A mild scenic drive to Waiuku and we were suddenly... More
