The Olive Rabbit Boutique Bed & Breakfast
Closest Accommodation to the Tongariro Alpine Crossing Shuttle Service
The Olive Rabbit Bed & Breakfast is situated in the historic fishing village, Taupahi, on the quiet, riverside location of Turangi. Since we cater exclusively to adults, you can rest assured of experiencing peace and tranquility amidst the local birdlife, the only sounds to serenade your stay.
Set against the backdrop of the iconic Tongaririo River, and very close to the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, makes The Olive Rabbit the best accommodation in Turangi. It is the closest accommodation choice to the shuttle service carpark near Ketetahi. And, there’s more: smaller hikes, cycling tracks, white-water rafting and horse trekking. A one-night stop will not be enough.
And now, meet your hosts, Mary and Tim, whose passion for hosting and connecting with people from across the globe has shaped our bed and breakfast to be the best accommodation choice of its kind in Turangi. Arrive to a delightful afternoon tea, which will set the tone of your stay. As dusk descends, join us for captivating canapes and a wine or beer, accompanied with stories of the area, camaraderie and detailed planning of your itinerary in and around Turangi and further onto the Central Plateau during your stay.
Indulge in a gourmet breakfast that will tantalise your taste buds and fuel your day of adventure. Early takeaway breakfasts, designed for the energetic adventurers hiking the Tongariro Crossing, are also an option for those earlybirds.
