It was a fantastic stay at the property. From the start, the customer service was great as Elaine was such a pleasure and always willing to help. When we talked in the room, it was nice and clean. The location is awesome; everything you'd need in Paihia is a walkable distance.

This small family run motel was fabulous for our purpose and budget. Owners were very friendly and knowledgeable about local eateries and attractions in the area. Very clean and comfortable. Handy walking to town for shopping and restaurants. Easy walk down to the wharf for our Bay of Islands cruise and ferry to Russell.

I never usually write reviews but this motel deserves one. The lovely owners will do anything you ask to help you. They keep this place spotlessly clean, the bed is fabulous, the carpet is new and soft. The location is perfect. 2 minutes walk to the beach. 3 minutes walk to downtown, so it is convenient yet still away from the noise and (few) crowds. The best cafe and best restaurant (with a discount) are 2 minutes walk away. I was so sad to leave such a lovely place! Thank you.
