Great location, very walkable. Front desk closes early which is annoying for late arrivals and rooms feel a bit dated. But I don’t think you’ll find much better in Whitianga.

Nice accomodation close to the beach and town. Comfortable rooms with lots of space and access to a heated pool. Loses one star due to only having a very limited number of plates, cutlery and utensils in the unit which made meals difficult.
