Absolutely fantastic stay. The owner simply couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you.
The rooms are new and spotlessly clean. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Book it, you won’t be disappointed.

We had an upstairs room looking out over the bay. It is a strange arrangement with the bathroom room and small galley kitchen between the living room and bedroom and accessible from both. However it works just fine. The person on reception was very friendly and helpful. The motel is right on the beach and boardwalk and a 10 minute walk into town. Thoroughly recomment if staying in Gisborne.

used this hotel whilst travelling between Masterton and Tauranga as a half way stop. The hotel staff were very pleasant and even offered a cutting from their thriving venus fly trap plant in reception. The hotel is clean and well maintained. With the number of people staying and some families I thought that the Motel would be noisy, but this was not the case. Its close to the main road, but that also doesn't detract.

Well located motel near centre of town but in a quiet location. Every thing was as you would expect a unit at this price to be. Would stay there again.

From arrival to departure we were very impressed with our treatment and the accommodation pod we had booked. There are only cafe facilities at the weekend therefore the need to travel for food and drink was unavoidable but it is only a short drive into Gisborne. The beaches close by are a surfers paradise so would certainly suit the adventurous person, though not myself. An all round excellent stay.
