A modest family run motel, but very well run. A friendly greeting at check in. Comfortable suite, with kitchen, microwave, fridge, kettle and all cutlery, plates etc. SPOTLESSLY CLEAN and neat! Lovely sea view from the slider doors/patio. Two TV’s. Guest laundry facilities on site. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this hotel.

Room was well equipped and spotless. Hosts were extremely welcoming and accommodating allowing us to have a sea view room for part of the stay (surcharge payable) and looked after our bags on our departure date as our return was later that day. A great spot, less than a 5 minute stroll to the centre of Paihia, spacious and very well equipped accommodation. Would definitely recommend, but book a sea view room as the view over the water to Russell is stunning.

The room was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The owner was very accommodating picking us up at the Kerikeri airport.

The staff were friendly and had good suggestions about what to do in the area. We were a 5 minute walk to restaurants, shops, and activities. The room itself was clean and spacious with a fantastic view of the bay.
