My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and it was a great start to our New Zealand trip. We thought the location was good – just a few minutes drive along the road from the main centre of Paihia or about a 15 minute walk along the beach. It was also over the road from a supermarket, which... more

The comfort level at this motel is very high, an important consideration for the older traveller.
