We loved our stay! There were several activities for the kids including a trampoline, play ground, and games room. It’s right next to a gorgeous beach. We had a bbq area right outside our room which was great. Our cabin was small but had everything we needed. Would definitely love to come back!

It's a great little place but disappointing as there was a problem with the TV and it's very windy and unpleasant outside, so we are stuck in the cabin and there is not even music to listen to. They only fixed the problem the next day and it was still not working properly, even then.

Great location in Karikari with small beach across the street. Small playground on site for kids and a games room which we didn’t use. Good value motel with mix of rooms and camper sites. Functional, not posh.
