That we could only stay 2 nights We have a long journey and too little time Our granddaughter had her birthday today We surprised her at the school gate

The motel's exceptional cleanliness and comfort, as well as the friendly and accommodating staff who went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay, make it a great choice. Its convenient location, with easy access to the waterfront, local attractions, and public transport, makes it an ideal base for exploring Wellington. The free WiFi and parking are also great.

It is a little bit overpriced, almost 500 dollars for a two bedroom apartment ts is expensive for New Zealand standard

Great bathroom; the shower had the right water pressure, heater on the wall was decent and very efficient. Room was just perfect for 2 people. There were complimentary tea/coffee, clean microwave, mini fridge and crockery.

The room was sprayed with a sort of perfume that did not agree with my asthma. Sliding door was a little grubby as well. Bed had a noticeable divot in the middle. Might be a good idea to refresh the mattress. A bit pricy. Parking was tight and very narrow to maneuver car. Note: If you're leaving the motel to make a right turn, please be careful as it's hard to see cars coming from the left side (bush obstructs view).

Hearty welcome from the staff. They explained public bus processes and where is good to eat. They later advised us by phone on directions to our chosen restaurant. Good room provisions for making tea and coffee included. Only a few minutes by bus to downtown Wellington and close to the airport too.

We were not offered the option to pay by eftpos or bank transfer, then slugged over 2% debit card surcharge.

The greeting at reception was warm and welcoming. A quiet, clean and generous size room with a lovely bathroom. The beds were comfortable. The heater in the room efficient and kept the room lovely and warm in a cold southerlie. The carparking was easy and not too tight. The motel's located about 200m walk from a nice cafe with a outlook over the bay or a 5min drive from Hataitai or Kilbirnie for more cafes or takeaway spots.

The room has a temperature digital display in the bathroom with a date which is a lovely touch. The bathrooms were fabulously clean and beautifully designed. Temperature was controlled so when coming out of a shower the room is warm. Lovely stay close to all amenities and easy access to shops and restaurants with car park available.

Really liked being close to a quieter stretch of Wellington’s waterfront and enjoyed the level walking opportunities in each direction. A short walk (or quick drive) took you to the Hataitai Shopping Village where there is a multitude of bars & eateries, along with a Four Square mini-supermarket for all your needs. The owners & staff were absolutely lovely and went out of their way to make sure me and my classic car were well looked after.

Nothing - it was all great!

The owners were so lovely and helpful! The room was beautifully clean, quiet, and had fantastic facillities (iron, minifridge, microwave, wardrobe). The room was also lovely and cool on a hot day. We were attending a wedding in Miramar and it was very easy to get ready here. Also has a great carpark so was super easy to call an Uber.

Nothing! Our stay was perfect.

Very friendly couple and they were so warm and very helpful. The wife booked us a taxi the day before for the following day. It was our first time in Wellington, and we dont know much about the place. She suggested a few things for us, which it was great. The room was clean, warm, nice and quiet. The wife also shows us information for places to order in as we were so tired when we arrived and just wanted to eat, showered, and sleep. She was very helpful and kind they were both were. We felt so welcome.

It was easy to make my own breakfast in the room with the facilities provided there. Outside the Bella Vista is the bus stop for services to and from Wellington centre (a beautiful bus ride with coastal views most of the way). I enjoyed being able to walk from the Bella Vista along the coastline (pavements/small area of park). I had worried before arrival about possible traffic noise but in reality my room was very quiet. The staff are lovely - friendly and very helpful.

Nothing. (The rooms are functional but extremely comfortable.)
