"Check in was super easy and contactless. Our accommodation at Mamaku Cottage was clean, peaceful and contained everything we needed for a more than comfortable stay. We really enjoyed the lush green surroundings with easy access to tracks and the local cafe/pub. We even had a morning visit from a number of cute wekas! Would definitely recommend and will book again in future."

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.

We stayed in a cabin, which was small but just fine. Itās 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...

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.

Outside is not impressive, but rooms were nice and clean, convenient to train station and car rentals. Excellent value for the price. We recommend Monteithās Brewery for food, though it is a bit of a walk from the hotel.

Very clean hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Property had all the amenities that you could want. For the price, this was an excellent value and we enjoyed our time there (even though the weather was cool and rainy).
