Experiences
where adventures unfold
Apart from enjoying the beauty and comfort of our villas, there’s much to see and do at Hapu Tales.
Outdoor activities include a walking trail through our mini tea plantation, beautifully manicured gardens to explore, multiple open-air terraces with spectacular views, a covered verandah, a pergola and a non-heated swimming pool for those who want to cool off on a hot sunny day.
You could also experience our local culture by exploring nearby villages or going for long walks along winding mountain roads. Come nighttime, we could arrange a campfire out in the cool mountain air under a starlit sky, so you could sit around with loved ones to share stories and create spectacular memories.
For quiet relaxation, find your own little niche to read, doze off, do yoga, sunbathe by the pool or just gaze out at the mountain vistas. The beautiful surroundings, stunning views and nature trails guarantee an unforgettable holiday.
For the more adventurous at heart, Hapu Tales is a great base for trekking and biking against the breathtaking backdrop of mountains, valleys, winding roads and waterfalls.
