Excellent stay. The kids loved the pool. Could have done with decent sink plug and some better knives in the kitchen but otherwise great.

It is very central and easy to get to any direction around the Whangarei area..Plenty of options close by for dining and supermarkets close too.
The disabled unit was easy for my husband who has mobility issues. Staff very helpful and obliging. Would stay there again

I needed a room that was suitable for mother & adult son & they accommodated this very well with a huge bed in lounge & separate bedroom. The rooms are spacious, great having a table & chairs, good sized kitchen, wonderful shower. Parking is a bit tight. It was value for money

The motel was quiet and had everything we needed, but the wifi was terrible and dropped out every few minutes. The shower gel and shampoo were also empty, the light in the bedroom did not work and the room smelt like chlorine. Otherwise the room was very accessible and comfortable.
