Top Pukepoto Hotel Reviews

Blue Marlin Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"We were upgraded to a larger room and it was so clean and lovely water views"

Grafton Cottage & Chalets

10/10 Excellent

"We decided to spend the first night of a Coromandel trip in Thames. Because we were only staying for one night, we looked for a room that wasn't too expensive, but still hoped to find something nice and self-contained, off the highway, ideally in a natural setting, with a bit of a view. Grafton Cottages and Chalets provided all of that! The host, Albi, graciously welcomed us and offered us the Camelia room, located at the front of the property, with a deck with views over the Firth of Thames. The kitchenette includes a two-burner hob plus microwave, allowing for meal prep, with a table and chairs positioned by the front window to take in the view. The room's heat pump kept us cozy and warm on a cool winter's night. Below the deck, there were plantings of regenerating bush, which we later learned was Albi's labour of love. We felt lucky we happened upon Grafton Cottages and Chalets when we searched for accommodation; we'd happily return, considering a larger unit for a longer stay, and while we're there, check out the regrowth on the property grounds over time."

Waterfront Apartments Whitianga

10/10 Excellent

"Great apartment with a beautiful sea view! It was spotless, clean, and very comfortable. Chris was amazing and provided excellent suggestions for things to do and places to visit around the area. The only downside was that the property doesn't have spa pools, although that's understandable given the limited space. Overall, a great stay and would happily return."
