Your nature retreat
Discover the magic of the Coromandel....
As our guest at Fantail Hill in Thames, you will be staying in a beautiful coastal location at the base of the Coromandel Peninsula, on the edge of the Coromandel Forest Park, close to nature, surrounded by tree ferns and native bush.
Enjoy your own bed and breakfast suite with relaxing sea views, local hospitality and generous homemade provisions delivered to your suite each day.
Our two bedroom guest suite is ideal for either a couple or up to four family and friends travelling together.
​
Soak your cares away under the stars in the Fantail Fernglade spa, or watch the sun go down over the sea as you enjoy the warm water with a glass of cold Prosecco.
