“You must stay here if you are in Gisbourne!”
Tatapouri was an absolute dream. The views, the ambience and the atmosphere was so wonderful and relaxing. It's far away enough from the main township but close enough to not feel like you're far from everything; about 20 mins from the centre of town. The drive there along the coast is also beautiful and a taster for what is to come! Going to bed and waking up to the sound of the waves was just what we needed for this weekend trip and we will be back for sure!

Unfortunately the constant traffic noise from trucks using the adjacent highway throughout the night, spoilt our sleep.
