reception staff were great, very helpful. the room was very comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was fantastic (although I understand some rooms were not as good). Convenient location

Julie New Zealand

The rooms were clean and the decor was modern. The beds were comfortable and came with electric blankets. The location was excellent. It was close to the sea and not far from SH 1.

Tara New Zealand

Staff are always friendly, rooms always clean, good water pressure and plenty of towels.

Tania New Zealand

Friendly welcome...great location...clean & comfortable room

Bruce New Zealand

Room was very tidy, bed was very comfortable. Walking distance to shop and the beach. Would stay again.

Hine New Zealand

Perfect location. Absolutely fabulous, professional, friendly, and accessible staff. The Manager and Assistant Manager deserve mention - they go out of their way to ensure you have the best stay possible and are terribly helpful, friendly and genuine. They are a standout for my stay with my 6yo son. Very relaxing place to stay. Lovely room and no tightness on 'supplies' as with some places I have experienced.

Angela New Zealand

Great corner room, slightly dated bathroom but bed was comfy, room was spacious, had a fantastic sized balcony and a great little seating area. Would definitely recommend and stay here again myself.

Catherine New Zealand

Everything went well, by chance we were within walking distance of our place of business! we arrived earlier than anticipated, and asked to occupy earlier, with no problem, thanks!

Leonie New Zealand

    thanks for your enquiry, we do not have two bedroom units so to speak but I think the one bedroom apartment will be the unit that will meet your need. It's got a queen bed in a separate bedroom and two single beds in the common/lounge area.
