    The house was so well appointed and beautifully presented and warm. Perfect for our family winter getaway. Hosts met us at the house and had all the local info we needed to make the most of our stay. Extra touches made it extra welcoming and so easy as a family on the road - spa towels, spades for Hot Water beach, kitchen staples and a coffee machine. Spa pool and outdoor areas were great.

    The motel is perfectly located, close to the port and restaurants, beach and beautiful palm trees are right across the street, great location to explore the entire Coromandel. Quite well equipped kitchen and spacious room, big fridge with freezer, WC in a separate room from the bathroom, parking right in front of the room.

    Great location with free parking. Only an 18-min walk to the main town Centre, and right across the road from the beach. Generous sized-rooms with full kitchen facilities, and good shower pressure. Met Brad on arrival, who was very welcoming & friendly. Kindly upgraded us to an upstairs room (203), gave us some milk, and provided us with beach towels & a shovel for Hot Water Beach the next morning. Lovely stay - highly recommend!

    Great location! Only a wee walking distance to shops and beach (within 10 minutes unless you want Woolworth/Warehouse then drive 5 mins). Great space in rooms, clean and tidy. Gives a classic Kiwi motel vibe :) Friendly and helpful owner who is just a phone call away. Rooms were clean, cooking facilities were more than adequate. Parking right in front of our room.

    Truly magical location, how beautiful it was to fall asleep to the waves and to wake to the sunrise right on the beach. Incredibly comfortable beds, rooms and overall motel. Loved being able to walk to everywhere we needed - especially the restaurants nearby and the fish and chip shop just around the corner.
