Tauranga Beauty

Absolutely spotless! Loved the heavy cultery, the toaster was clean, sparkly clean wine glasses - just a fabulous kitchen layout. The couch was comfy to snuggle on with the grandies. The double bed and single beds were very comfortable. Stayed for two nights and hubby slept in one of the single beds on the second night (3 yr old granddaughter slept in the other) I shared the dbl bed with our 8 mth old grandson. Simon offered us a travel cot if needed when we checked in. My granddaughter and I enjoyed the spa bath in the generous sized bathroom and the shower pressure was strong. A TV in the lounge & the two bedrooms - wow, great for families. The furniture in this Superior 2 bedroom suite was very modern - fantastic to have place mats and matching coasters and the cute plants. Absolutely value for money. Excellent location. Will definitely be staying here again. Will check out the pool & spa next time. - Booking.com

Lovely welcoming hotel

Knowing the area, this is a very handy place to stay. A short drive to good shopping centre. Location was great and considering property is beside major roadway, while you could hear traffic noise it wasn't so bad and didn't lessen the comfort of our stay. Simon was very welcoming and went over and above expectation of making our stay extra special. Was very much appreciated, thank you. - Booking.com

Highly highly recommend, lovely rooms and host as well as location!!

Location was spot on and quite central to what we needed to do. Beds were so comfortable. Simon was a great host and really helpful regarding knowledge of the area and things to do!! Rooms were 5 star and wow, had a great spa bath in the room which we totally made use off after a busy day out. My son enjoyed the spa and pool outside - Clem R
