Stunning deck looking out over the ocean. Loved the massive sliding doors in the lounge and main room. Big and spacious unit. Love the ability to do laundry after a day at the beach. Great red telephone- so can quickly and easily ask questions.

Need bigger mugs and glasses in the kitchen. Having a mug of tea felt like you’d only drunk a thimble full. And no teapot to make a bigger volume. Although a luxurious extra ~ the unit could do with a dishwasher- so that more time can be spent swimming/ enjoying the view and not washing dishes for the family.

We absolutely loved this motel. It’s in a stunning position with fabulous views and a wonderful on site restaurant. We had a lovely room with a separate bedroom, both rooms had patio doors to the deck and views of the sea. We slept with our bedroom door open listening to the waves crashing on the shore below. We had a huge bathroom with a big spa bath, perfect for a soak after a long day. Check in was fab, the guy was so friendly and welcoming. We had dinner in the restaurant, great service and fab food! It’s far better than the description on Booking.com - so book it you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent location and value for money. Little disappointed the restaurant wasn’t open the night we were there but it was short trip to get fish n chips. Friendly host, clean room and probably the best option if you want private accommodation close to the surf.

Nothing. As mentioned restaurant being closed was annoying as was one of reasons for choosing this host so check if your staying over on the quieter nights and not wanting to drive for food.

We liked everything about the place. Amazing location and views of the ocean. Great hospitality and very friendly staff. A large balcony to enjoy the breathtaking views, restaurant onsite, SKY TV and laundry facilities. A highly recommended accommodation for a family getaway. Will definitely return in future.

Possibly to have some board & card games available.

We stayed at this property for one night as we were doing a morning horse ride along 90 mile beach. We had a room with an ocean view which was great. Bed was comfortable. Nice verandah too for a quiet drink while looking over the ocean. Highly recommend the restaurant - we had one of the best dinners of our whole trip - the lamb shanks. Staff really friendly too.

The property is getting a bit worn, and also there was no air con in the bedroom so was a bit hot for sleeping. Although you can open up the door to the verandah which was good.

What a view! Unfortunately it was far too windy the night we stayed for us to sit outside on the balcony, but it looked like the perfect place to chill out. Exactly as advertised, clean and comfortable.

A little bit tight for 4 of us (with the sofa bed pulled out). Little things like adding a rubbish bin in the bathroom and more places to hang towels would be welcomed.

The view from our motel was anazing looking out over the beach. Very good host who was very helpful. Liked having the restaurant onsite as it seemed the only other option was the takeaway bar. Would recommend this motel to anyone looking for accommodation in Ahipara

Would be helpful to have a mirror in the bedrooms

Location, clean modern units with everything you need, cleaning staff were lovely to deal with. We were able to stay with our small dog. Access to beach.

Would recommend staying in front units for a spectacular view, the back ones have a side view of the bay which is still beautiful but also the car park.

If your after the best view ever then this is the place to stay and the on-site stone grill resturant was amazing highly recommended

Resturant only served cheap wine by the glass and I was not wanting to buy a bottle as we had drinks in our room. And our bathroom had no shower curtian so water went everywhere super dangerous Apart from that all was awesome
