"Perched on Waiheke Island about 32 kilometers (20 miles) from central Auckland, I found Hekerua Lodge Backpackers to be a laid-back, rustic escape that feels like sharing a home with soon-to-be friends: the hostel organizes plenty of social activities including group dinners, and offers a communal BBQ area, roaming chickens, a vegetable garden and a swimming pool; private rooms have shared bathrooms and plenty of natural light, and the four-bed and six-bed dorms each have their own private sun deck." - Matthew Kepnes
