ECO Suite was a very nice room well built into the hillside. Weka bird visits to the porch added some nice flavor. On property washer and dryer worked well.

Located at the end of Tauranga Bay is a secluded beach cottage paradise. Our hosts, Sandra and Doc, greeted us with open arms and helped carry our luggage to our private, modern-equipped cottage. The place was extremely clean and neat and furnished with modern appliances, bathroom fixtures, and comfortable furnishings.
Breakfast each morning was plentiful- the espresso coffee, fruits, cheese, eggs, toasts, and tasty granola were plentiful to keep us nourished throughout the day.

We stayed in a cabin, which was small but just fine. It’s right next to the beach, and there is a central area for cooking, showers and hanging out. A really nice vibe.

We appreciated the manager letting us shift our separate rooms to one two bedroom cottage at the last minute. As the heavy rains came during the night, we were beyond grateful that we were not in a tent or in a small metal "economy room" with no bathroom! We were safe and sound in a lovely two bedroom cottage with a well equipped kitchenette, large living room, covered deck and a walking path to the ocean (before the rain came). We were only there one night, checked in late and left early, but...

Friendly welcome at check in. Spacious, comfortable room with many more amenities than I expected. I had a great stay and slept particularly well. Thanks!

What an amazing hostel! Comfortable room, great wifi, everything was clean, but what I especially loved what the overall character of the place. There is a big inner courtyard with plenty of seating and hammocks for guests to hang out. The entire place is painted with bright cheery colors. Owner was super friendly. Wish I could have stayed a few more days.
