We were fortunate to select Discovery Settlers to hold our daughters wedding in April and what a great experience! From our first meeting with Rick - nothing was too much trouble. The wedding ceremony on the front lawn was lovely and the grounds were presented to perfection, even the rain shower could not dampen this wonderful day. The food was... More

“Two weeks ago we had my sons wedding at the Discovery Settlers Hotel Whangarei. From the moment we made inquiries until we booked out on the Sunday the team at The Settlers could not do enough for us. Throughout they maintained a high level of professionalism while maintaining a wonderful personal service. They were flexible and were no surprises, the... More

Top marks should be given to Discovery Settlers Hotel where we held our daughter's wedding in April. Rick and staff couldn't have done more for us and our guests were also very happy with their accommodation. Food was excellent and enough for everybody. The rooms were suited to what we wanted and if we should have another wedding come up... More

This was my second visit to Settlers having stayed there in 2011. I have to say I really enjoyed my stay, we were there for 10 days and the whole experience was excellent from the accomodation, to the food, to the management and staff. I travel worldwide with a motorsport team and right from the time we arrived we were... More

We booked three rooms for a 1 night stay to attend a wedding. After returning from a wedding function at 2230 we decided to have a Gaelic coffee before retiring for the night. We ordered three coffees and sat at an outside table. The restaurant/bar had had around 10 or so patrons inside. After waiting around 20 minutes my 60... More

After reviewing our choices for a wedding venue, I could not be happier that we decided on the Settlers Hotel for our reception venue. From the first contact Rick, the GM, personally handled our booking and he could not do enough to accommodate our requests. The communication from him and his staff was excellent. We had a reception of nearly... More

We arrived in Whangarei and didn't have a reservation but found Settlers since we had stayed there many years ago. We were pleasantly surprised because they have renovated many of the rooms and ours was very good. Large bathroom with shower and a very comfortable king size bed. The staff was very attentive. They have WiFi but you have to... More
