Independent in Manakau from NZ$145

"Tidy and love the rooms as well. The fireplace was fantastic, lite the fire Friday night was cosy and warm. And family freindly."

"Very good "

"Great spot for get togethers with everything you need nearby"

"Room was very tidy, Francis and the other staff member we met were super friendly and wonderful. Francis was such a lovely person, made us feel very welcoming from the beginning :) Would definitely stay again!"

"Small and compact but everything we needed. Peacefully and quiet and very close to the beach"

"Beautiful location, warm cozy home, everything there that you could need for a break away "

"I loved the little extra touches at this motor lodge, like the electric blankets, bottles of water in the fridge and a decent number of hot chocolate sachets for non-tea and coffee drinkers. There was a spa bath too which we didn’t use but it elevated the room above your usual motor lodge. We arrived quite late at night, after reception closed, but they had a nifty screen where you type in your name and phone number and your room key pops out. Made it really easy to stay no matter what time you arrive. Even though it was close to a main road we didn’t hear one single car. I was kept awake though from the person in the unit above thumping around like an elephant at all hours of the night, so if you’re susceptible to noise like me I recommend booking an upstairs unit so you don’t hear heavy footsteps above you. All in all a great place to stay."

"Great property, would absolutely stay again 😊"

"Such a delightful stay! So cosy with the fire on, well stocked with firewood, had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook all our meals. No wifi which was so nice to unplug. Nice and private to have our own space out of sight of the rest of the property. Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend away :)"
