We stayed for 1 night and had a great time in Orchid Grove Country Lodge. The owner was so kind and their breakfast was amazing! The room was absolutely clean and tidy. We felt comfortable and relaxed in Kerikeri.
We recommend Orchid Grove Country Lodge if you go to Kerikeri. The accommodation was the best that we have ever stayed –

Very friendly and accommodating hosts. Outstanding standard of service balanced with the right amount personal attention providing exceptional value for money – David and Sue – Auckland – March 2012 *****

“Trust me” is all I said to my husband as we drove up the gravel drive through the bush. He was doubting my choice of accommodation – how dare he! Well, he was very impressed, as was I with Orchid Grove. The property was well presented, with all the facilities of home plus the relaxing spa. The room was exceptionally clean & tidy, the lounge and library were well stocked with books & dvd’s and very comfortable. The service provided by Michele and Henry was exceptional – their hospitality is second to none. There was so much breakfast & all very delicious. Michele’s recommendation for dinner at “The Italians” is just what we needed after a long day’s drive. We highly recommend staying at the Orchid Grove for a relaxing break. Michele and Henry will definitely look after you! SimLid – Auckland – Jan 2012*****

Thank so much Michele and Henry. What a wonderful place to totally relax. Accommodation spotless, decor extremely tasteful.
Breathless surroundings and we totally enjoyed the spa and sauna. Look no more, definitely 5 stars!!! GB – Auckland -Jan 2012 *****

Thanks Michele and Henry we had a wonderful stay with you over New Year. You guys really do have the winning formula, we were really impressed with your warm welcome and “nothing is a problem” attitude. We highly recommend Orchid Grove to other travellers and suggest you partake of the lodge meals. Michele really is a great chef and Henry, what can I say about your breakfast!!! – Marianne and Justin – Wellington NZ – Dec 2011 *****

STOP GOOGLING AND BOOK NOW – It really is that simple – stop googling and book Orchid Grove now. You will not find a more perfect place to stay in Kerikeri. My partner and I decided to take a few days off over Christmas and headed to Kerikeri. We drove up from Auckland and arrived at Orchid Grove at 19:30. When we realised we were going to arrive a wee bit later than we said I phoned Michele to let her now. ‘Not a problem’ she said ‘have you eaten, shall I book you somewhere for dinner? This was the first example of Michele’s meticulous attention to detail and care – many more examples followed.The accommodation is spotlessly clean, a quality I always look for and insist on receiving. The location is perfect for exploring the Bay of Islands. During my stay I tried really hard to find something negative about Orchid Grove, but I couldn’t, it’s faultless.Seriously, don’t waste time agonising on where to stay, if you’ve found Orchid Grove you really have found the best place to stay in the Bay of Islands. You have found paradise. Chris B – Dec 2011 *****

Thanks for a first class experience- best place we have stayed so far in our travels. Great facilities, service, views and food… would recommend Orchid Grove Country Lodge to anyone! Michelle and Henry are lovely people who offer a homely yet modern
accommodation. 5 stars!!! – Chris H *****
