Lodge Bordeaux features a heated outdoor pool, a barbecue pavilion and an in-room breakfast service. A 5-minute drive from Whangarei’s city centre, it offers free unlimited WiFi.

Fully air-conditioned, the self-contained rooms have a full kitchen with a microwave, a fridge and a stove. The seating area comes with a DVD player and a flat-screen TV with some satellite channels. All bathrooms include underfloor heating and most rooms have a spa bath.

Easy access, and even though on the highway, it was quiet. Quick check-in. Shared laundry, but we arrived just in time to get a load done. Our apartment actually looked better than the photos, the kitchen was functional with enough equipment to make a little dinner. We had a spa bath, which we didn't have time to use, but loved that towel warmer. We found a classical music station on the TV! It's nice they provide real milk for your coffee or for hot chocolate with your cookies.

    We were warmly welcomed by our host, who offered us invaluable recommendations for exploring Whangarei, Northland and New Zealand. The rooms were tastefully decorated and impeccably clean. Nestled beside a serene creek, the accommodation was meticulously maintained and surrounded by a charmingly designed garden. Without hesitation, we wholeheartedly recommend everything about this exceptional place!

    The location by the sea is gorgeous, with stunning views from inside and out. The house was large, well equipped, clean, and comfortable. The spa was an added bonus (as were the crisps and chocolate!). It exceeded all our expectations.

    The interior design of the room was amazing and the bed was extremely comfortable. Beautiful location right next to the lake meaning that I had access to plenty of wonderful cafes/restaurants.

    Lovely helpful homestay host, great location across from the beach. The local Salt Air Cafe is perfect for breakfast and lunch. The surrounding area and little bays are stunning. Clean, stylish comfy rooms with own kitchen and bathroom. We managed to have a swim and a kayak just across the road. Wished we had the time to have stayed longer.
