Book a Maungatapere Cottage

"We had a great time, real kiwi bach unbeatable location with all the things you need to make your stay easy. Kids jumped off the bridge, kayaked in the estuary, walked for miles on the beach. Plenty of space for two families. Host was kind and great to communicate with. Kids are already planning next stay. Thanking for allowing us to share you special place."

"Cleanest motel we have stayed in. The bathroom was just sparkling! Great check in staff - very friendly and helpful. "

"This is the second time we stay here. Absolutely love it ! It's so peaceful. Close to the swim/surf beach. "

"Clean room / kitchen & parking"

"Close to beautiful view and playground "

"This was the perfect base for us. The place was a great size for the four of us, everything we needed. Great location for being close to Whangārei town but also easy access to the heads for exploring, walks and swims. Place was clean and fresh. Nice space to spend sone time. We plan to be back sometime. "

"Great spot to stay with huge rooms. Very friendly staff at checkin. "

"Lovely motel, probably one of the cleanest and most well maintained property I've stayed at. Would highly recommend. "

"Although the motel dates probably from the mid 1980’s, it is clean, and comfortable, with a kitchen comprising of an electric stove top, microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge. All were in excellent condition, and the property is well maintained. Whilst we did not use the pool, it looked clean and inviting. There are only 12 units, in a quiet street only 5 mins walk from a New World and Woolworths, with some excellent cafes close by, and a short walk to the Harbourside area and town. Highly recommend for the price and would definitely stay again"
