Set 400 feet above sea level on the side of the Tokatea Mountain range is Atea Lodge. Built in 2002, the lodge sits amongst 12 acres of lush native bush overlooking the Hauraki Gulf, with stunning views of Waiheke Island and the Whangaparaoa Peninsula. Only 5 minutes from the quaint town of Coromandel and its wonderful restaurants and craft shops, Atea is everything a traveller may want in quiet and upmarket lodgings. Atea Lodge has three private rooms with quality chattels and décor for discerning guests to enjoy, whilst boasting electronic security gates at the entrance. Atea means 'place amongst the stars' - and it is certainly that.
