“Cheap and cheerful”

Reviewed 16 March 2012

If you want five-star luxury don't stay here, but if you want a clean, comfy place for a decent price, go for it! Sure, it's old-style but the things you need to be updated have been - i.e. good shower, comfy bed. It's very clean and the owners are very nice, also central location and nice to be beside the...

“dont bypass this motel”

Reviewed 23 January 2012

Another relaxing weekend at Marina Court. This motel ticks all the boxes for us, no fancy extras, just a very clean and tidy unit, very comfortable bed and lovely fresh clean bedding and towels. Great shower with high water pressure and plenty of hot water. Every thing we needed in the unit. Staff very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed having... More

Well what can we say but thank you! We too think the spot is fantastic. It is central and even if it does not have water views, it is easy to take you coffee as you said, to the waterfront and enjoy a sunset. We are really pleased when we see people sitting on our "log-bench" with a dring and... More

“Good value for money.”

Reviewed 24 December 2011

I booked on line because of the motel's location & comments from TripAdvisor. Met only Anne, whose accent I mistook for the UK, not Danish. She could not have been more obliging. Motel is simple but clean. Location is an easy walk to town. I would recommend Marina Court to others as value for $$, with a really nice owner.

In the meantime we take great pains to keep it very clean and tidy. ...and yes, we are both Danish...we are climate refugees ;-)... More

“The hosts are 5 stars!”

Reviewed 18 December 2011

The Marina Court looks simple from the outside and its rooms are basic, but it is exceptionally clean and comfortable and grew on us in the 3 weeks we were there. We enjoyed it very much. The location along the River and near yacht harbors is great, within walking distance of the entertainment centers of Whangarei. The real gem is... More

“Appearances deceive”

Reviewed 16 November 2011

We needed a motel for one night as we headed north to the Bay of Islands and although it looks a bit tired from the outside, we decided to try the Marina Court. We were pleasantly surprised by the experience. The welcome was warm, helpful and good natured and the one bedroom unit we were given was surprisingly roomy and... More

We are always very pleased when guests have enjoyed their stay and we especially thank you for taking time to write a review. We are happy to be able to offer the spacious units at a budget price and we are working on the dated decor ;-). We are expecting the new harbour crossing will divert much of the traffic... More
