Top Whitianga Hotel Reviews

Oceans 88 Whitianga Coastal Accommodation Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place in a great town! Extremely helpful and kind staff went the extra mile to make a great experience of their wonderful area! Thank you, Ken!"

Albert Number 6 Motel

8/10 Good

"Car park was a struggle to get in and out of with not much backing room and turn space. Friendly staff just wished I hadn’t had to wait a while to get a fresh set of towels, seen a family waiting for a staff member was there for a long period of time. When arriving not properly greeted or instructed on how cleaning and everything works (or even telling us tourist about what’s around here and what activities are on etc)"

Bailey's At The Beach Motel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was so clean, cozy, and inviting. The ocean is right across the street, offering incredible views and beach access. The location was outside of the commercial center, but still so close it was walkable. Finally, the proprietors were very helpful and pleasant. We will most certainly be back."
