Expedia has given this property a 2.5 star rating. It's a 3 star. The room and building are in new condition, the garden area is beautiful. And the host (I forget her name) is exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Loved our stay here.
We stayed with our UK whanau for 2 nights and as we'd experienced before it was an enjoyable experience. Lovely clean rooms, warm welcome and relaxing spa, what more could you want! Oh, and the beautiful Hokianga Harbour and mighty sand dunes are just across the road, a gruelling 1 minute walk to view - awesome😊 Nearby shops, Hotels, fish n chips very handy and easy walking too. Well be back for sure.
Fabulous staff - really helpful and friendly. Lovely room too! The spa pool was an unexpected delight... Thanks so much for the marvellous time we had! 😊
Quite location, pleasant hosts and close to all other amenities. Enjoyed my stay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
When undertaking a "roadie" like we are, one experiences many different standards, styles & prices of motel, but strewth at $NZ220 a night for this place it's ridiculously overpriced !
Yes, it's clean, yes the room's got space, yes we slept OK....but heck it's very old style & needs a total revamp. The bathroom area in room 10 was incredibly small - even had separate hot & cold taps - that's old style! .
Plus no view from the room of the lovely Hokianga River 50m away! .
On the plus side the location's great & the lady at check in was lovely & welcoming!

Well maintained and equipped. Comfy bed with nice linen. Friendly staff.
Excellent location. Excellent hosts. Enjoyed it very much. Just want to stay there again, the area and the hotel are so refreshingly quiet and beautiful.
Quaint little hotel room with beach across street. Had a small deck with tropical plants surrounding us. Lady who checked us in was fantastic - we were running a tad late (6:30) but she was waiting for us and told us to head immediately to fish and chip stand as it was almost closing time. Made it with only minutes to spare.
