Really nice motel in a great location in Paihia. Across the road from a lovely beach and a short walk to everything in town. I had a fairly basic double room, but everything clean and tidy. Very comfortable and I will certainly stay again.

Good location with lovely sea views.

Quick and easy check in for our three night stay. Our room was downstairs with a sea view but we had a lot of road noise as we were the closest to the road. The room was spacious and had everything we needed although will be better once refurbished which I understand is a work in progress. The bathroom is a little small and the fan which comes on when the light is turned on is very noisy. Having said that we were comfortable and the motel is close to a cafe, local store and petrol station with a supermarket a few minutes drive around the corner. It is walkable to the main shops and restaurants.
