"Excellent location located in the heart of the Coromandel Penninsula, 1.5hr drive for Hahei where Cathedral Cove is located. There is more to do here and the accommodation is walkable to town. If I were to return to Coromandel for a future visit, this is where I would stay."
"Great hosts. Helpful and friendly. Super clean unites. Nice and warm when we arrived on a pretty grotty night. Walking distance to town. Great experience all round."

For a solo traveller, the room was much bigger than I expected, with a stunning harbour view. The owner was very generous with information and even gave me a lift around the corner into town as well as showing me a good swimming spot. I was also permitted a late check out and really appreciated the flexibility.

Room was clean and comfortable. Location was excellent, just a short walk to Coromandel Town centre. Staff were helpful; didn't actally meet anyone due to late check-in but they enabled me to gain entry via messaging.

Great little Holiday Park in Coromandel with everything you expect from a Top 10 park. We stayed in a Kitchen Cabin so used the shared toilet and shower facilities which were clean and conveniently nearby. Cabin was clean and comfortable.

Wonderful hosts!
Everything was great. Bed was very comfortable. Room was large (room 1), very clean and had everything we needed. Maria was very attentive and made us feel at home. Very nice breakfast with several choices available. You need a car to get to the main restaurants in town, boat trips etc, but the beach was only a few minutes walk away. Or you can kayak to the beach along the small river at the bottom of the garden (we didn’t, but other guests did).

Owner gave us such a lovely welcome with great suggestions to make Our Stay even better.
The 10% Discount at O’Malleys was used twice where we had 2 fantastic reasonably priced meals - beware the Portions are very large

A wonderful apartment complex. A small number of apartments, modern, very clean, well equipped & in close proximity to the gorgeous beach.
The gardens are very pretty & well maintained.
There are 3 good restaurants & a coffee shop/bakery within a short walk.

Cute and cosy accommodation right by nice bars, restaurants and shops. Also close to beach and marina. The light breakfast provided in the room was a lovely touch. Rooms were clean and the owners were very friendly, accommodating and very knowledgable about exploring Whitianga and the surrounding area. Would definitely book to stay here again when visiting the Coromandel again.
