    We were down for a funeral so did not get time to explore what was on offer. However we did travel to the waterways and went for dinner with the family and friends who came to the funeral. Lost Springs was the venue which I can imagine would be a very busy place due to the geo thermal spa and restaurant setup they have. Next time we will do the tourist thing which we are very good at!

    We really enjoyed our 1 night stay at this gem of a place, set in a lush forest. The surroundings were idyllic, with beautiful vistas over Whitianga town and beach. The bed was superb and breakfast was amazing - more than we could eat with more than 6 types of fruit, yoghurt, bacon & eggs, and mushrooms and tomatoes, toast...... We've never seen such a variety of teas and coffee on offer! Wish we had had more than 1 night to enjoy Beverley and Dave's wonderful hospitality. 10 out of 10!!

    We joined a cruise to the Cathedral Cove from Whitianga.

    We joined a cruise to the Cathedral Cove from Whitianga. It was very nice and enjoyable. The beach was scenic. It is a small town but with 2 big supermarkets where we can buy fresh local food. It is a long drive from Auckland. It would be easier if there is car ferry from Auckland east to the Coromandel pennisula.

    Whitianga is a beautiful place especially the area we stayed in being surrounded by the beach. Everything is close by in walking distance. What a bonus. The people are lovely and friendly. We tried the Slice slice baby - pizza place because we seen a lot of people going in and out and now we know why! We also had fish and chips from the shop just next to the pizza and by far the best fish and chips I've had. Fresh and tasty.

    Small town but had most things you would want access to. Lovely beach and it had a lovely peaceful feel about it. Enjoyed dining at Stoked Bar and Grill. Had a great vibe and was across from the beach.

    Our favourite activity was going on a Cathedral Cove Coast and cave tour with mercury Bay discoveries. Highly recommend getting out on the water. We enjoyed a dinner at Grace O'Malleys, generous meals at a reasonable price, with a beautiful view. We enjoyed the closeness to other beaches eg Hahei, Cooks Beach. We enjoyed taking the ferry across to Ferry landing to explore Flaxmore Bay and other landmarks. Great Mini Putt golf course , very well kept.

    A real 'wow' property with the most beautiful views over Whitianga Bay. Fantastic for two families (which we were effectively with our son and his family) given it was split into two apartments with the main one having enough entertainment space for everyone and a huge balcony. Really nicely appointed and furnished with good bathrooms/en suites and everything you might need in the kitchen. Had a bit of a fight over rooms they were so nice! Great range of toys and stuff in case you needed it.

    The hosts were friendly and even offered the use of a free beach bag with towels and a hose to wash off sand. We did the Cave Cruiise Tour and the Cathedral Cove Gateway Trail. We walked into Whitianga along the beach and had the Snapper Fish and Chips at Whitianga Takeaways, with staggering huge portion of chips more than enough for two and large thick snapper slices. It was a great stay.

    This B&B was absolutely stunning. The room, the view, the location, the service, the comfort and, oh my word, those breakfasts were culinary masterpieces ... but what made it even more remarkable were the hosts Don and Heather. Thank you so much for making our stay so incredibly special and memorable. We loved everything about our Waters Edge / Whitianga stay ... thank you.

    Can't fault the accommodation! Peaceful stay in a clean and modern gated apartment complex! The kitchen is fully stocked, TV has all the options, great view of the boats on the water, pool + large spa were also a highlight. All the adjoining apartments were quiet and peaceful. Will definitely be coming back

    Evolve Bach was a lovely place to stay during our visit to Whitianga. We walked everywhere we needed, grocery, laundry mat, restaurants and more. It was an easy drive to Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove. Our host was responsive to inquiries and made our stay most enjoyable.

    Exceptionally clean. The house has a good size of living, bedroom and toilet. It also comes with top grade coffee. The bed is so comfortable. The host, Jennie, is so detailed with the instructions to ensure we have a good stay. Better than a 6 stars hotel
