Not a Motel Block — A Private Orchard Retreat

Kerigold Chalets occupies a working citrus and avocado orchard in the heart of Kerikeri. Each unit is a standalone private building, not a room in a shared block. You get the seclusion of an orchard setting with town cafes, the Packhouse Market, and the supermarket all a 2 minute walk away.

Standalone Private Buildings

Each chalet and studio is its own separate building within the orchard. No shared walls, no corridor noise, no motel-block feel.

Walk to Town

Cafes, restaurants, and the supermarket are a 2 minute (300m) walk away. No need to drive for breakfast.

Working Citrus Orchard

The property sits within a working citrus and avocado orchard. Enjoy the grounds, the bird life, and the quiet that comes with that setting.

Kitchen in Every Unit

Self-cater and save on food costs during longer stays. Stovetop, microwave, fridge, and all cookware. Make proper coffee in the morning without going anywhere.
