The room was adequate for our 2 night stay. Very dated-70s but well done cleaners for presenting it well. Had to ask for another pillow and salt, but staff very obliging. Could do with blackout curtains as outside light shone all night!!

Go to a restaurant not fish and chip shop Got takeaways and was given Hopi not snapper
Not much going on for a Monday night, one restaurant open for dinner but that was excellent, The Beachcomber is well worth a visit.
I enjoyed going back to Kaitaia as it has been a very long time since I last visited the area. It still looks the same with a few more houses.
Plenty of eateries, must try the kebab house...Beaut food and very clean. Apart from the nutter that was running up and down the high st, all was good.We all have a village idiot! I even booked my next holiday at the flight centre, who were awesome.
