Cons: The room was presented to an above average modern motel standard, and there was nothing wrong with it as such. We specifically wanted the view we had and the spa......so don't regret the cost. Objectively, one might expect a higher spec of fixtures and fittings for $300 per night in a motel.

All amenities were sparkling clean and in addition a small jar of home-baked cookies was a nice touch. The owners were so friendly and straight off made 2 very good dinner recommendations. We took him up on the delicious Malabar Nepalese restaurant which delivered our food, as the restaurant was booked out (Saturday night) and gave us a 20% discount!

Close to a nice little hotel restaurant down the road within walking distance. Altogether a really enjoyable stay and would come back again 👍💕

Cons: Only a few minor downsides for us, some of which weren't so much downsides.. more just our constructive feedback. One being the size of the breakfast, was VERY small for the price, but still tasty! We also would have loved to of had some lunch or dinner options available. Another being the loud plumbing, although we were lucky to only witness this a few times during our stay. And if we are just being picky, the bed was a little hard for my liking & decor could use a bit of an update.. but no biggie for us, that's just being picky! 😊

Very nice to soak in after a day exploring. The bed was comfy and room had everything we needed. Was also surprisingly quiet given that its central location and just off the main road.

Cons: To pool area needs a revamp other then that awesome stay, that’s just a personal opinion though

Pros: The ground floor unit was beautiful and very clean and tidy, spotless in fact. Everything that you needed was in the room. The bed was a good large size and very comfortable. The bonus of the ground floor unit was the addition of a separate room with its own thermal hot tub to enjoy. Carol, the host, was great, very welcoming, friendly and helpful, even rang us to see what time we would arrive, so that she could fill the thermal hot tub for us. Great location, with a view to the lake. We highly recommend it.

Pros: The country had that day gone into level 2 and Auckland level 3 so there was no dining and we dont think there was breakfast. I suspect they had a number of cancelations. We used it as a stopover on our way home. I would stay there again at the price as long as it was not summer. There was no air conditioning, however I did see a fan in the wardrobe.
