Triple Tui - Log cabin, self contained, river side

Triple Tui - Log cabin, self contained, river side

8/10 Good
"Online listing does not explain clearly the ‘off grid’ nature of the property (limited power & hot water) and does not include details about the 300m walk (incl a skinny sway bridge crossing) to get from where you park your car to the property, nor was this communicated to us as part of the special instructions you normally receive days before your arrival. No contact was made until a few hours prior and no information was provided at that time, only on arrival were we told that we needed a 4WD to get to the cottage, so our luggage was transported by the host while we walked. Had we known and been prepared (incl packing differently), we would have enjoyed it, rather than being surprised and frustrated. The cottage itself was lovely and once we settled in, it was enjoyable, just not what we were expecting."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Rainbow?
The best area to stay in Rainbow is near the Rainbow Ski Area base, as this is the primary destination.

This area is ideal for travelers focused on winter sports. It provides direct access to the ski slopes, meaning you can easily get on the mountain without a long commute. The base area typically includes facilities like rental shops, dining options, and access to the lifts. This makes it particularly convenient for families with children or couples who want to maximize their time skiing or snowboarding.

For those seeking a more secluded experience, there are accommodation options further down the access road. These offer a more private setting while still being a short drive from the ski area.
When is the best time to go to Rainbow?
The best time to visit Rainbow, Marlborough, New Zealand, is during the spring (September to November) or autumn (March to May) months.

Spring offers mild temperatures and fewer crowds, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural beauty. The vineyards are beginning to bud, and the landscapes are lush and green, superb for scenic drives and outdoor activities. This season is particularly appealing for couples looking for a tranquil escape with pleasant weather for wine tasting and leisurely walks.

Autumn provides a comfortable climate with clear skies and vibrant fall foliage, especially in the Wairau Valley. The grape harvest season is in full swing, offering a unique opportunity to witness the winemaking process firsthand.
