Great sized room with a fantastic sea view and spa bath. Wonderful location in Ahuriri, close to the beach, restaurants and cafes and easy to get to from the airport.

Louise New Zealand

The location was good ,rooms very easy to locate staff were very cooperative.

Changal New Zealand

Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were helpful. Facilities were great.

Louise New Zealand

Everything was really great: location, facilities, staff, room, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to anyone.

Kim United States of America

Large well appointed rooms Good Air Conditioning

John New Zealand

very comfortable hotel. Our room came with a small but fully functional kitchen, 2 bedrooms and a lovely balcony. Thankfully the air conditioning worked well (easy to use) as it was scorching hot outside. Secure car parking and a hop away from multiple restaurants, cafes etc.

Peter New Zealand

The Breakfast was very good. It was available from a little Cafe located on the first floor of the property.

Kathy United States of America

Not hotel fault but road work noise at 7.30 Sunday morning!

Claire New Zealand

The hotel was lovely, well appointed, and right across from the beach and walking path in a great area of town with restaurants and coffee shops right there. The staff made our stay even more delightful. They were always greeting us with a smile and since we were traveling from Chicago, we had a lot of questions about the area. They offered many suggestions that helped us make our time there even better. I would highly recommend!

Susanne United States of America

Room was closer to lift and stairs and just right size.
