A bit out of the way accept the Maori Village is right across the street. If you want to dine you have to drive into town. The food and the atmosphere at the hotel is not that great.

It's frustrating that the rubbish bin in our room was full, and we had to call the reception twice to resolve the issue.

Was there for 4 nights. Nice hotel, very clean. Gym was very small for the size of the hotel and number of guests but well enough equipped. Pool area a good size and clean, with 2 spa pools. Dinner buffet excellent, lots of variety, and food was fresh. Found all staff friendly and helpful. A good stay and would come again.

The buffet breakfast and dinner breakfast was pretty much almost the same options every day, there's no significant changes day to day, which wasn't an excitement thing to do it. The first room which was gave us room 135, the drain of the bathroom/shower was obstructed/blocked where the water wasn't going through and the water from it was coming out through the drain under to to the sink with a really bad smell. I called the reception immediately requesting a new room, some minutes after they allocated us to a new room 145, but it was with a lot of dusty where we could see the dusty in air every day. Usually the hotel should refund the day for the great inconvenience to give us a room in horrible conditions making us change the room in our First day.

The property is close to the beach, easy to park and surrounded by greens. The facility is pretty old, cabinet is not leveled, we found earings on the nigh table, must be forgotten from the previous guests. When asked for additional towel, I was told to find some around the pool. Laundry facility is dirty. Our next door guests chat late into the night and started chatting first thing in the morning, we can hear from inside the room loud and clear, can smell they were smoking. Staff are friendly, but overwhelmed.
