Discovery Settlers Hotel
Basic accomodation but good value, close to town, comfortable and clean. I had breakfast and dinner in Settlers restaurant and it was very good. Wayne the manager is a gentleman and very helpful. No complaints, I would stay here again.

Quality Hotel Oceans Tutukaka
The room we stayed in has had a refurb, but the hallways etc. are looking a bit tired. Also be aware that the room is only serviced once every 3 days, which for the price you pay seems not ideal. Reception staff lovely and the restaurant is great (open for breakfast and lunch only)
