Great guest house with really welcoming host. Very clean and tidy place and the bed was very comfortable. Shared bathrooms but kept immaculate and great shower. Fantastic kitchen dinning area with lots of space and free tea and coffee. Lovely living area too and liked the property security used to enter the building and the room.

The double rooms are pretty small so with big luggage would be a struggle but was all fine for us for a few nights

We wanted a bed and shower for 2 nights at a reasonable rate, near food. Seagulls Guesthouse provided all that. Quiet. Cafe on the corner. McDonalds just down the street. Good hot water. Good communications with Paul. Nice lounge. We didn't need the kitchen. Easy check in and out. Secure lock on the bedroom door. We will use Seagulls again if we go back to Tauranga. Thank you Paul.

Quite and that’s why I didn’t ticked anything under the question (how was the stuff?) because there was no stuff and that’s the beauty of it. You check yourself in and enjoy your staying. Check yourself out and you don’t see anyone. I know they are there but you don’t see them . Anyways this is my second time and they have step up since then. This is my place to stay in Maunganui every time. Keep up the good work guys.

Parking but I know there’s plenty at the front. No big deal.

The room was very clean, decently updated amenities for the price. I always appreciate a clean bathroom and there was a lot of space to spread out for a budget room. The kitchenette was useful too! And I love a quiet location, which this was.

While the electronic system in place worked pretty well, it was a little difficult that there was no employee on site to answer questions/check in. Thankfully we ran into no issues during our stay, so I didn't have to use the numbers provided. So that system may have worked fine!

Very clean and well maintained. Good amenities for the age and style. Well managed and management/staff happy to help or advise on anything. Easy (but hot) walk to main Mount facilities. Brilliantly close to Bay Oval.

Showers lacked racks and rails - in the shared area that we booked. Parking a problem if you went out and tried to find a park on the road when there was an event on at Bay Oval.

The entire property was warm and welcoming, loved that we could check in at our own time through the coding system, Staff were helpful and friendly - Bed was comfortable and I loved that our room had its own aircon/heat pump. Despite the fact that our room had its own bathroom I did use the guest bathrooms and they were clean and tidy and positioned well through the accommodation so it's not a far walk to the shared bathrooms wherever your room is for the rooms with no bathroom facilities. We would happily stay again. Ngā mihi,

Love that it's a quiet and homey kind of Guesthouse (not a party hostel). Modern security doors are definitely impressive.

Common areas are always tidy and clean but our room and toilet were never cleaned during our whole 4-day stay. We're actually not sure if it's only by request. Also our room was near the common toilet and for some reason other guests won't close the toilet door after using hence its a bit unpleasant that we always have to close it.

A late booking due to accom issues. Our Hosts welcomed us and then upgraded us, so that the other rooms I had booked could all be together. Fabulous accommodation and if we get the chance, then we will definitely come again.

After a huge disappointment with previous accom booked, our host Paul was very welcoming and upgraded us to one unit. We really appreciated your wonderful hospitality.

It was a bit strange at first to have a completely unpersonal check in just by door code. It worked great however. Rooms and bathrooms are comfortable and tidy. Large shared kitchen area and guest lounge with books, games, TV and DVDs. Plenty of parking available. I liked my stay and would come again.

Room was a bit small, but still comfortable and nice.

Location was quite far away from city centre (3 km) but the walk was nice. Beach was near-ish, 15 min walk. So if you don't mind walking like me or you have a car, I do recommend. The room was more than great, kitchen and bathrooms were very clean. Also check-in and check-out, and using phone app as your key were so convinient. Had a lovely stay here.
