Hudson Holidays from NZ$1,807

The property was very well maintained, and the view from the balcony was spectacular. Very pleased with the safe parking garage as well. We decided to stay an extra night after returning from our live aboard trip. It’s located within walking distance of a ton of restaurants, shops and the ocean. The room was very tidy but a few things to consider: 1. The bathroom doesn’t have a fan so the floor tends to stay wet 2. The beds are on rollers and can push away from you when getting on it.

Positives: Check-in was smooth, and the location was convenient with the added benefit of free parking. Negatives: When booking, I specifically requested a quiet room for our babymoon. Unfortunately, the room we were initially assigned was very noisy. The walls were extremely thin—we could hear conversations from other guests, traffic from the road, and even a washing machine running at 2am right outside our door. Given that occupancy appeared low, it was disappointing to be placed so close to other guests. As a result, I struggled to sleep for the first three nights. Being pregnant and also dealing with a cold, this significantly impacted our stay and ended up being the biggest letdown of the trip. After raising the issue with reception, we were moved to a room at the back of the property for the remaining nights. This room was much quieter, and I was finally able to rest. While I do appreciate the staff’s efforts to resolve the situation, it was frustrating that we weren’t allocated a more suitable room from the beginning. Overall, the resort felt overpriced for what it offers. Housekeeping is only provided at an additional cost, and the rooms and bathrooms are quite dated, with poor soundproofing.

Great location and pool was superb. Bathrooms a little dated but rest of accomodation was nice.

Freshly cooked breakfast on the large deck overlookig the sea - what a great way to start a day!

Nice place to stay would stay again
