You'll find a selection of accommodation options, from holiday parks to boutique lodges, along the main road. It's well-connected for exploring the wider Coromandel Peninsula, with easy drives to popular spots like Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove.

For couples looking for a relaxing escape, staying slightly off the main highway, perhaps along a quiet side road leading towards the coast, can be ideal.

You're still only a short drive from local eateries and activities.
