The location to the beach frontage road is very nice. Just walk across the street and you can enjoy the beach and the beautiful sunrise every morning. Quiet with easy access to local breakfast and hotel bars. Highly recommend for the price and amenities.

Fantastic stay. The nicest place I’ve stayed in the 2 1/2 months that I have been traveling thru NZ. Of course the location is excellent with a beach front and mountain view at the same time! Apartment was spotless. Modern, first class place with yummy breakfast, welcome treats and wonderful, kind hosts.

    Stunning location - right on the beachfront with an amazing view to wake up to! We booked a suite for our 1 night which was massive and very well equipped. Breakfast was very nice but there were a small number of waiting staff so took a bit of time.
