We stayed at the lodge in February as part of our trip which was organised by a tour company and found it very relaxing. The accommodation was very comfortable and the views spectacular. Our host was very helpful. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast at the cafe in the shopping centre. We just wish we could have spent longer than one... More

Clean, well presented chalet with everything necessary for a relaxed and comfortable stay. The bed was extremely comfy. Very handy for the local shops and restaurants. Nice stroll down the hill to admire the wonderful waterfront homes or slightly longer to the great beach. There is a small swimming pool but I did not try it out as I swam... More

When we researched this stop we came across a travel magazine that described it as a hotel. Once you reach the town it can be readily seen that it wouldn't be big enought to support an accommodation type hotel. The accommodation can be best described as the type of cabins found in caravan parks with a dividing wall in each... More

My wife and I stayed one night here as part of a tour of New Zealand - the travel company chose the itinerary and accomodation so we saw lots of NZ hotels.

The unit we stayed in was particularly well equipped and very comfortable and we were warmly welcomed.... More

We spent a night here during a tour of the North Island. The unit was excellent and the owner was a mine of useful information. We enjoyed our stay and it was a very good stop. The unit was in excellent order and we had a restful and pleasant stay. Pauanui is a fascinating place with a sizeable “weekend home”... More

The units are very clean and are an oasis of quietness. Very good stay. More

This was a last minute booking, we were accommodated in a clean friendly environment. I couldn't fault it, staff great, room excellent, location very handy. I would highly recommend the Pines Motor Lodge, we will be returning. More

Our family of four stayed in Jan 2012 in a two bedroom unit that whilst not glamourous accomodation was very comfortable and incredibly clean and well maintained. Well established gardens around the units and outdoor settings in front of each unit made for a very pleasant setting. Our children enjoyed the pool - clean but not overly large and a... More
