Coromandel Seaview Motel is situated between the mountains and the sea of the Coromandel Peninsula. It is close to renowned saltwater fishing and a number of outdoor activities.

All of the spacious, refurbished rooms have a balcony and a private BBQ free parking on site. Kim and Gail were exceptional hosts. We used it as a base for the Coromandel area for 4 days. It was a bit of a drive each day however we were always so happy to come to this relaxed home at the end of a busy day. The place was spotless and well equipped with our own bbq. Book the spa sweet for exceptional views and your own jacuzzi. We had suite 3 and our view was beautiful and our deck so private. Gail and Kim brought breakfast to our deck each morning with a delicious pot of coffee. One of our favourite places in our month long stay in NZ

The holiday home offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. As a solo traveler I felt very safe in this cottage located within a farm.
