16. The Hibiscus Cottage

If you want to stay a bit out of the Raglan city center, then keep reading to learn more about the Hibiscus Cottage.

It is also equipped with beach towels, mats, umbrellas, reading material and anything else you may need for the perfect beach day.

17. Lovely yurt in Raglan

Yes, I understand that you may not be completely aware of what a yurt is, but don’t worry, you won’t be in the dark for too much longer. A yurt is a basically a circular studio apartment created in a sustainable manner, for the purpose of disconnecting guests from the hustle and bustle of technology and city life. This spacious yurt comes with a double bed that can sleep two, a sofa, a small kitchen, a bathroom (composting toilet and outdoor bamboo shower with hot water), and an outdoor fireplace, among the other essentials. The hosts are also self-proclaimed foodies and will likely leave you a fun treat to try, so be on the lookout for that! In addition, the yurt is just a five-minute walk away from the town center, where guests will find restaurants, cafes, and more. If this yurt isn’t available for rent, the hosts can recommend another one!
