Harbour View Motel on Ahuriri Beach in Napier NZ with sea view suites

10/10 Excellent
"We had a family unit which had all we needed and more. There is a full sized stove and fridge freezer to make a stay with a family a breeze. Good onsite parking in front of our unit was ideal. The view over the Hawkes' Bay and port is stunning. The beach is an easy walk across the grass. Ahuriri village is a short walk away giving access to a good range of cafes and interesting shops. We will definitely stay here again"
