The most comfortable bed and pillows in New Zealand, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect, the hotel is across from the beach and cafe, shops, and everything is set up perfectly for disability access including the pool.

Nice spacious room and bathroom, comfy beds and pretty good view. Unfortunately we had to experience a fire drill, not too big of a deal though. Shower temperature kept fluctuating, and one of the face towels had makeup on it upon arrival.

Amazing location and views to die for. Staff were exceptional. Lighting in room was insufficient, one main light and lights above bed very bright. Needed option for muted lighting, bedside lamps perhaps. I do also find it irritating when I book for three people and the room has not been set up to account for an extra person re: towels etc. shouldn’t have to request extras.

New hotel
New hotel with modern decor located on the beach with views from the upper floors. Unfortunately the downside to my stay was being allocated a room next to the lifts (noise) despite the hotel being almost empty (winter).
