We stayed here for 6 nights in October 2011. The fully equipped units are very spacious with huge picture windows of the spectacular views. From Whangarei, It's a pleasant 1/2 hour picturesque drive resembling the English country side, with orchards, hedges, horses and forest and then the amazing ocean views. The spa was lovely and warm and the pool area... More

We stayed one night at the Pacific Rendevous on our way north. Our unit was clean, comfortable and well equipped with views over the Tutakaka Harbour entrance. The spa pool was great. The service was friendly and welcoming. Our stay wasn't really long enough to explore the area. We are hoping to go back again sometime and stay at least... More

We spend about 40 days traveling thru New Zealand and this was our starting point. This is an amazing Motel Resort. Cottages are cozy and very comfortable. From there you can take a trip to the village and put yourself on a boat directly to dive at Poor Knights Island. This is a great view you have from the gardens... More

Dated, clean, wonderful woman who seemed to be running the place when we were there. Great views that are beyond amazing. Nice kitchen, so cooking and dining outside your own unit with cliff top views of the bay and the Pacific are possible. Allow plenty of time to get there from Auckland as most of the route consists of picturesque... More

It was a real thrill to stay here in March 2012. The setting, views, atmosphere are wonderful and the price no more than the average motel room in ordinary surroundings. The pool, spa baths, private beach and games room are all excellent and the gardens immaculate and I have never stayed in a nicer location. Ten out of ten. More

This is an outstanding spot. Up on the clifftop, overlooking Tutukaka marina and the harbour, the view is magniificent. The unit was very clean and very cosy, split level so very good for two couples. Full kitchen included so we were able to go out for lunches and then cook dinners ourselves. There are two spa pools to choose from,... More

Fantastic views, comfy beds and wonderful location. Thoroughly enjoyed the private beach and a very cool swim. Diving the Poor Knights with Dive Tutukaka was a real drawcard. Beautifully maintained gardens and the accommodation in self contained 2 bed unit was clean and well appointed. Thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor BBQ with views to die for. We will return! More

This location has an absolutely breath taking view, but is lacking on almost every other front. Rooms are small and poorly cared for. The TV in my room was completely nonfunctional as was the AC unit. In the bathroom when using the hot water in the tiny shower the hot water handle would get so hot you needed to cover... More

My family and I stayed in a 3 bedroom apartment, and my parents in a 2 bedroom. Although the apartments are not particularly modern they are absolutely fine, very clean and the kitchens are great. The views are outstanding from whichever room you are staying in. When booking the accommodation Glenys was extremely helpful, friendly and efficient which makes a... More

Nice unit with everything needed for a break away. A little dated but the view made up for this. The units were clean, tidy and well maintained. Fantastic owners and facilities. More
