Marotiri, New Zealand // $112/night // Book on Airbnb

Escape to the beautiful New Zealand countryside and stay in the Kawakawa Hut Marotiri, a small and cozy off-grid accommodation for two. The hut is situated on a farm in the Waikato region, surrounded by rolling hills and friendly cows grazing nearby. It provides a perfect spot for a simple and sustainable getaway.

Built from repurposed materials, the hut has a low environmental impact and is completely off-grid. While you won't have access to WiFi, there's excellent cellphone coverage, allowing you to disconnect and unwind from the hustle and bustle of city life.


The hut is equipped with everything one needs for a comfortable stay, including a queen-size bed, a small ensuite, a log burner for chilly evenings, and a simple kitchen with a camp-style gas cooker, fridge/freezer, and coffee plunger. USB charging is available, and main power outlets can be used with care through an inverter.

Enjoy views of the surrounding farmland and Tongariro's snow-capped mountains in the distance. Relax on the sofa by the fire, or chill outside under the "lean-to" porch with a drink. A BBQ is available just outside, perfect for cooking up a meal while enjoying the views.


The hut is located adjacent to a vegetable garden and a barn, where the owners raise their own stock and grow vegetables. While the owners may need to access the garden and barn during your stay, they will respect your privacy and make sure not to intrude. Explore the vegetable garden and say hello to the cows or horses over the fence.

The Kawakawa Hut Marotiri provides a peaceful and unique retreat in the heart of the New Zealand countryside. Disconnect and unwind, and enjoy a sustainable stay in a beautiful and natural setting.
