New Zealand Waitomo Caves Baches & Holiday Homes - Accommodation. If you are looking for comprehensive travel information for Waitomo Caves Baches & Holiday Homes, you will find it here on AA Travel.
Staying at an iconic Kiwi bach (or holiday home) is a tradition that Kiwis on holiday have enjoyed for generations. A bach in Waitomo Caves offers the perfect form of self-catering accommodation for a family holiday or a getaway with your friends. The range of baches available throughout the country is staggering. Chose from a classic bach; a small dwelling with limited facilities, or move up the range to a moderate-size, comfortable home with all of the essentials. Finally, at the upper end of the scale are the architecturally designed holiday homes, with expensive furnishings and extra bonuses such as swimming or spa pools. Baches are usually available for hire per night or weekly, and are popular options for summer holidays, so make sure to book well in advance.
Waitomo Caves: In the Waitomo District, the water above and below ground has sculpted the limestone landscape. There are hundreds of caverns, but only a few are open to the public. The most accessible caves are the Waitomo, Aranui and Ruakuri. As well as speleotherms (stalactites and stalagmites), you will see glow-worms; and there are abseiling experiences available for more adventurous travellers. Black-water rafting is another way to appreciate the underground splendours of Waitomo – you will drift along underground streams on your own personal raft. For its size, Waitomo Caves provides a wide variety of accommodation; a historic 100-year-old hotel, self-catering motels, cottages, bed & breakfast (other meals by arrangement), and backpackers lodge. There is a youth hostel with backpackers’ accommodation and a holiday park with self-catering units, budget cabins, backpackers’ accommodation, and campervan and campsites. Family and senior citizen discount may be available. Pet friendly accommodation is available at Waitomo Caves by arrangement, groups welcome.
