we enjoy our stay, it was clean and the thermal pool and outdoor pool was awesome
1 thing i could advise on is where the tv is situated just a thought in maybe putting the tv's on the wall with brackets that can be moved into different positions to be able to watch it anywhere in the room. other than that loved our stay would recommend it to anyone who is looking for accomodation in tauranga

The facilities could use a little refresh but are spacious for a family of four (including teenagers). All clean and tidy. We didn't manage to book a room with a private pool but the swimming pool was a pleasant surprise (and heated!). Location is great but traffic can be noisy at times. What really makes this place stand out is the staff - everyone we encountered was always smiling, professional, cheerful and willing to help! Perfect for a last minute booking - we will be back.

Very noisy, not just road noise, but could hear people in room next door. Found a baby dummy in the room - not ours - yuck.

Enjoyed our short stay here, facilities are good. Nicely situated across the road from the water however, road is very busy but didn’t bother us much. The only issue is entering or exiting the property can be tricky as it’s right on a bend in the road.

It was clean, price was lower end of scale, reflecting the age of the motel. There was nothing to complain about, staff really friendly.
