Tapawera Holidays from NZ$814

Big and spacious apartment. Very clean and well equipped with the added benefit of a spacious balcony. Only stayed one night but would be more than happy to spend a week here

The owner was excellent. Super keen to make sure our stay was really good and we had everything we needed at all times. He was always happy, friendly and chatty, greeting me by my name every time he saw me. The room was spotlessly clean, kitchen had everything you could need and the towels were changed each day.

Great location, spacious room, very clean, friendly staff members, highly recommended

To describe this place as oceanside is laughable. At best, it's estuary-side, and mostly the mudflats. I paid extra to have an "ocean" view, and that simply wasn't the case. We arrived mid afternoon and had to text a number to have someone come to the lobby. The room was fine, although certainly not high end. The people working that we saw, however, were super friendly. The restaurant next door is incredible! So, it's fine, but don't expect high end.
