Guest reviews
"Location was great for our purposes of hiking in the area. Room 5 was spacious which beat just having a room. Loved having the communal kitchen space available to cook a simple meal."
"Scenic location looking out to mountains and convenient to trails."
Georgette The Nook
"The front desk lady was extremely helpful and friendly in helping us around town and showing us our rooms"
Buechele Anchorage Motel
"The breakfast was on the light side but for the price of the room it was substantial. Other breakfast options were nearby."

"Views to die for! Loved, loved, loved this cottage which was adjoined to, but separate, from the main hosts house - an arrangement we prefer for privacy. This is a very comfortable cottage which has been nicely furnished to welcome guests. The linen and towels are luxurious. Parking is outside the door which opens to the bathroom, toilet and small but most adequate kitchenette. From here you descent 4 steps to the bedroom and lounge area and two balconies. This lovely, comfortable property would be suited for short and long term visits and the hosts Jane and Mike are warm and welcoming. This top rated property was an absolute pleasure to stay in - thank you so much."

"Nice location near the water, very clean and Sheree is very welcoming and friendly."
Terrance Tides Reach Whitianga
"We appreciated this very cute little cottage. Obviously a labor of love for the owners who have tried to maintain the nostalgic history of the home. We found it to be quite comfortable overall and convenient to walk to restaurants etc down the esplanade. We had a small issue with a smoke detector battery and the owner quickly responded to resolve the problem. We really appreciated the welcome gift of wine and cheese. Very thoughtful after a long drive. Wonderful little courtyard and access to laundry. Very well equipped overall for cooking in."
