Beachside Resort Whitianga
5/5 Excellent
Great Choice for Whitianga
"The Beachside Resort is a great place to stay in Whitianga. We had separate bedroom and living rooms, along with a small kitchen, which was very convenient for a multi-day stay. The heated pool is very nice. The complex is less than one block to the beach and only a few blocks to town. Cathedral Cove (30-min drive, 10-min shuttle, then 40-min walk) is worth a visit."
