Sea Gardening
at the Wharf Hub
Our goal is to provide comfortable clean accommodation
and a meaningful stay experience.
The Boat House
Our Boat House is detached from the main house offering greater privacy. It has a double bed in one room and a single bed in the other.
It has its own kitchenette for two. The shower and toilet are 10 metres away up the ramp in the back porch area.
It is themed sleepout style accommodation, quite adequate for short term stays.
Master's Room
Original 'Masters Room' with comfortable queen bed, antique furnishings, historic pictures with commanding views to the wharf and estuary.
You can watch the mussel barges coming and going undertaking sea farming operations.
With the sundowner deck right outside the room you can also take in the sunset and stars.
Binoculars provided.
Please note our in house accommodation is shared accommodation. If sharing is not your thing then our 'Boat House' is the better option for you.
If you prefer to stay in stand alone local Opotiki Accommodation, then there's plenty around. Check Air BnB, local Motels or Opotiki Holiday Park Motel Units, all just a stones throw away.
Other Options
Campervans Welcome
Many find the 'Wharf Hub' on a popular free phone app called 'CamperMate'.
You can use this app to make an overnight booking or phone us and book directly.
The Wharf Hub can comfortably accommodate up to two campervans at a time with off road parking.
We have good wifi, drinking water hose and power available.
The rear 'light house' deck area provides a shower, toilet, cooking and eating area.
A clothes washing machine, fish filleting bench and more useful facilities are also to be found on the property.
Included in your overnight stay fee is the short guided walk and introductory talk on the principles behind 'Sea Gardening' and the development of the Opotiki Community Reef. (Koha Value $40 per person)
Departure time is 10am unless you are also enrolled on one of our workshops.
