The hosts, Heather and Don, were very welcoming and accommodated our requests. My wife asked for a yoga mat, and she was allowed to borrow not only a yoga mat but also a bolster, blocks, etc. Each day, we discussed the best hiking options and weather conditions. All of the suggested walks were uncrowded and beautiful. We learned about Whitianga culture, food, and the seas and rivers surrounding it.

We stayed on the top floor in an apartment facing the ocean. I think it was number 8. It was perfect. We could cook our own meals in the well equipped full kitchen. It was well laid out to sleep a family of 4 and the beds were comfortable. We slept so well because of the black out blinds and lapping ocean just outside, My 22 year old daughter enjoyed using the trampoline and we both enjoyed the hot tub and having our meals on our balcony overlooking the beautiful view, The hosts were also lovely and very helpful with suggestions as to things to do. it was well located to walk and drive to different sites to visit in the surrounding areas. A nice bonus is it also had Netflix to relax at night with a movie, Because of the lack of noise and light pollution, star gazing was at its best. I would highly recommend this property.

    Truly magical location, how beautiful it was to fall asleep to the waves and to wake to the sunrise right on the beach. Incredibly comfortable beds, rooms and overall motel. Loved being able to walk to everywhere we needed - especially the restaurants nearby and the fish and chip shop just around the corner.
