I find this motel a perfect distance from the interislander ferry - a 50 min drive. It’s operated by the owners and it is a generational family business. A a former motelier I thoroughly recommend it.

Excellent communications from the proprietors, after delays with the interislander ferries. Very obliging and hassle free. Clean, tidy and quiet rooms. Great stop off away from Wellington, on way to Auckland.

This is a great overnight stop off when travelling with dogs. It is a little traffic noisey but then you are not far off the main route for the next day! It is very clean and good walking space for dogs. Town has a few food options and great fish and chips. Meet and greet efficient and we had lovely fresh linen and strong shower!
