An easy walk to Napier main street along... More

We stayed here for over a week and loved it. So comfortable. We were given a spa room upgrade. John and Llanys went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and had a great time. Highly recommended.

We had excellent advice from the owners on places to eat and visit. It is only a short walk to the centre... More

Stylish and in keeping with the Art Deco town. Complete with all amenities. Well positioned - be sure to ask for room with sea view.Owner meticulous - everything thought out to the last detail. More than an everyday motel. Recommended.
