Nice stay in modern accommodation facing the ocean. Friendly welcome on arrival. Plenty of eating choices and the towns shops a 15 min walk away.

Great location, right across from the beach. Within walking distance to stores and restaurants. Very friendly and accommodating hosts; they even provide shovels and beach towels.
The best hotel of our entire NZ trip.

This family owned motel charged me for being a no-show for a stay that I called them 6 weeks in advance to cancel. I spoke at length with their manager, Dan, for over 15 minutes (calling from the USA) as I explained to him that I may have more than one reservation and I could have one booked direct and one through Expedia. He told me with certainty there was only one reservation and he would cancel it. Two weeks after my stay would have ended, I find a charge for $900 USA on my credit card. I called and spoke to the husband and wife who own the business and they refused to return a single $ stating that Dan knew he can’t cancel a reservation made through Expedia, so it’s my fault that they charged me as a no-show. And their reason for giving me no refund and no accommodation, “we’ve already paid a fee to Expedia”. Never mind that they had full knowledge that I would not be arriving and could have booked the room to someone else!
I have travelled to New Zealand over 15 years and dozens of places and have never dealt with as reasonable and rude a couple as these owners. If you are used to friendly New Zealand hosts and American level of Customer Service, STAY Away and definitely book somewhere else!

Down for the night so partner could join a fishing charter next day. This is my go to place when in Whitianga. The owners are great, so helpfull. You cant beat the location or the sunrise view! Thanks so much! see you next time :)

Older property, you can see it is well looked after though and thought has gone into minor details/amenities. It was very clean and today inside and out

If you like long walks along the beach, then this is literally the hotel for you. Close enough to make the wharf and downtown walkable (about 15-20 minutes depending on your speed), but far enough to not be in the middle of it all. Oh and the view of the Mercury Bay and beyond is perfection for relaxing with your morning coffee (especially if it rains on the bay - the rainbows are quite something).

We did not like the layout of the bathroom. Entering the room straight into bathroom, no door to toilet, was disconcerting. Shower cubicle strange.
4.4
Nice clean good size good heater
4.4
Nice clean beachfront room. Huge kitchen if keen on cooking. Walking distance to the wharf, where eateries operate. Even has collaboration with Grace O'Malley's for 10% discount, just that we forgot to show the card...
Only drawback is need some time to figure out the hot water for the shower...

The friendliness of the Hosts.
Jill especially went 'the extra mile' .
We went to dinner at a restaurant recommended by the Motel.
After our excellent dinner, our waitress informed us that we had a treat to come(it turned out to be a shared chocolate cheese cake). They would not disclose who ordered it. It was for our 64th. anniversary celebration, that day.
We subsequently found out that Jill from the motel had arranged it. Some people are so kind.

Positioned directly across the beach and a 10 minute walk to the shopping area makes this motel ideal. It’s an older building that has been neatly updated. Very comfortable bed. The bathroom would be unsuitable for people will mobility issues as there are large steps up into the spa bath to take a shower. Also the space for the toilet is very tight. The free wifi was intermittent and slow. The TV was oddly positioned.
