KARAMEA VACATION GUEST HOUSE RENTAL DESCRIPTION
We are situated in Karamea, in the sub-tropical far north west coast, a small community isolated from the rest of New Zealand by the mountains of Kahurangi National Park, the only road connection being the spectacular scenic drive over Karamea Bluff from Westport. Karamea is the start (or finish!) of several popular tramping/hiking trails in the mountains and forests of the Kahurangi, such as the Heaphy Track, Wangapeka and Leslie-Karamea tracks.
Rongo offers beds for a total of only 22 people, ensuring it retains a quiet and comfortable atmosphere. However because of this it is worth booking in advance if you are coming here in the peak season (Dec-Jan).
Quality furniture is used throughout the backpackers, with many items handcrafted from local timber, and all rooms (even the toilets) have original artworks from local and overseas artists hanging on the wall (many of which are for sale). Rongo is designed to be environmentally sustainable and features many technologies used in this aim.
Dorms: Rongo offers a total of 16 dorm beds in two themed rooms, 12 of them in the large, two sectioned 'Rasta Room', and 4 in the smaller '70's Room' which is ideal for small groups. All beds are made up with sheets and pillows, blankets/duvets/doonas are available free of charge.
Doubles: There are two double rooms at Rongo, the Green Room and the Purple Room, which is descriptive of their colour scheming. All beds are fully made up and clean towels are provided.
Twin: Twin room. All beds are fully made up and clean towels are provided.
