Tairua Shores Motel enjoys a harbourside location close to the Tairua Wharf, and it takes 2 minutes to drive to the town center or a 10-minute beach walk overlooking Mt Paku and Tairua Harbour. It offers barbecue facilities, laundry services, free on-site parking, free WiFi access, beach towels and shovels. I highly recommend this place. It is fully equipped. Great location, check in was very easy and communication with Steven was very good. Sabeena, the cleaning lady, was very friendly. We will definitely be back. 😁

The modern units have either lake, mountain or pool views and all include a spa bath and a well-equipped kitchenette. Modern amenities include air conditioning and TV reception. The rooms were huge with a small kitchenette, access to laundry in the hotel and the pool / hot tub area was fabulous. Easy access to the lake beside the hotel and a fabulous walk along the lake also.

Coromandel Seaview Motel is situated between the mountains and the sea of the Coromandel Peninsula. It is close to renowned saltwater fishing and a number of outdoor activities.

All of the spacious, refurbished rooms have a balcony and a private BBQ free parking on site. Wonderful gem of a place. The location is spectacular and Kim and Gail very warm and welcoming. We stayed in the 2 bed spa apartment with our son between Christmas and New Year. Everything was spotless, beds very comfortable. We made good use of the sparkling clean spa and did an evening BBQ every day just soaking up the wonderful views of the bay from our deck. Nice walk down to Long Bay Beach from the apartment and we loved the zip line experience at Driving Creek. Could not recommend this place more highly!! Thanks Gail and Kim

The holiday home offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. As a solo traveler I felt very safe in this cottage located within a farm. The range of nearby activities (Hobbiton, Maungatautari forest walks) was excellent. I will definitely visit again!
