Excellent in all respects, from the warm welcome and ready supply of local information, to being personally shown to the room, the room itself being spacious, well equipped and furnished with everything spotlessly clean, and the offer to help with luggage. This was the last night of 42 nights touring the length and breadth of NZ, and without doubt this was the best motel of the lot. It cost a touch more than the average, but not by much (and elsewhere we had on a couple of occasions paid a good deal more for considerably less) - but was more than worth the extra $50 or so. Thoroughly recommended.

Absolutely nothing, hence 10/10 (which I’d rarely give, as to earn this, everything has to be pretty much perfect).

Nice comfortable lodgings with a great spa tub and kitchennete. Manly village closeby with excellent options for food and groceries. Nearby beaches, and nice bird Sanctuary. We found it perfect for a lazy vacation with time on beach, walks and hike and drove out for a couple of nice day tours. Staff was friendly.

Nothing that struck as not to be liked.

It was nice and warm when we arrived and albeit late the owners made contact to check on us and texted details of key availability. We are definitely going there again. Thank you to the cleaning staff also who were really nice and helpful. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The spa bath was exceptional after a long day at our conference and the bath salts icing on the cake. Thank you 😊 soooo much.

I didn't like that we had to come home lol 😆. No complaints at all.

The breakfast was delicious, on time and a lovely additional extra to order. Sandy and Glen were very welcoming, after hours check in was easy! We loved the fans to create a breeze in the lounge and bedroom. The spa bath was lovely! Instruction booklet with detail on designated smoking area, where to get coffee and food - that's very helpful.

There wasn't anything we DIDNT like, but thought salt & pepper shaker for our breakfast would have been great, and a toilet scrubber so guests can keep the facility clean and tidy.

Fantastic place. Loved the little touches like a handwritten welcome note and stash of books and magazines available to read while there. The room was larger than most and exceptionally clean. Shower had great pressure and the location straight across from the beach was lovely. Looking forward to staying again when the owners are there so we can try the gourmet breakfast they offer as we've heard it's amazing!

Nothing....it was fantastic!

It was according to my expectations, without annoying surprises. I have got exactly what was written and that is huge plus nowadays. Yes, the spa bath was really cool, and location - next to the sea (ocean) - was also awesome.

Nothing worth to be mentioned, I was hoping for a better view (I have got accommodation on ground-floor) with less trees and more sea, but it is OK since I was on a business trip and I had to work a lot.

Glen and Sandy were very welcoming and sorted an issue with our room immediately. The rooms are well equipped and spacious, allowing you to easily cook light meals or breakfast for yourselves. Nice bits and pieces in the bathroom, and options for where to sit in the bedroom. Very comfortable beds, lovely linen and very very clean. Great location - try and get a room with a view!

A very comfortable stay. We had the one bedroom unit so had lots of space. Great to have the kitchen area with everything we needed. We appreciated the very roomy bathroom and it was wonderful to be able to enjoy a spa bath. We enjoyed being close to the sea and an excellent village area with good cafes and places to eat.

No issues to report.

Lovely comfortable bed, great shower, proximity to Little Manly Beach. Easy walk to shops and cafes. A lovely restful stay. Great coffee from the coffee cart by the beach.

The traffic noise which we were aware of, and that started around 5am! Noisy neighbours on our second night.☹ Having to leave.☹

Sandy and Glen were exceptional as they so welcoming and helpful. The room was very comfortable and spacious. The shower bombs were a nice added touch. The location is wonderful across from Little Manly Beach and a short walk to the village center for convenient meals. Sandy and Glen delivered a delicious breakfast to our room. A great stay.

Nothing.
