This is a good location - with a tired fitout that needs a major shot in the arm. Management is warm, friendly and effective - if a tad folksy. Units are basic - but clean and comfortable. Sadly they have trucking clients who arrive at all hours - and jolt you from your bed. Purely on this basis I would... More

Just one block back from the fabulous beach at Paraparaumu, this motel is in a great location. The rooms are comfortable, if a little tired. The proprietors are friendly and helpful. Really handy for the shops. There is a restaurant, a coffee shop and a food takeaway in the complex, a pizza place just over the road and other restaurants... More

We stayed one night at the motel on a drive back to Wellington on a Saturday night. We booked a studio room with a spa. The motel is well located, within easy walking distance of the Paraparam beach shops and restaurants. The receptionist lady was very friendly and showed us to our room. The room was basic, and decor slightly... More

This is a convenient location, walking distance to beach, restaurants and shops. The room was funky. Seemed like they tried to update it recently, but chose really outdated decor. The front of the room had a full wall of windows and was ground floor. To have privacy, it was necessary to close all of the draperies, which made it drab... More

Great location just off the beach at Paraparaumu. Very close to the beach shopping centre, 30 seconds and you are there. Very helpful in the office. Perhaps getting a bit tired, but very comfortable If you whatnot go further afield and eave your car behind there is a very regular bus service right outside

We were disappointed with our stay. I don't know how the accomodation can be described as 'elegant'. More like cheap and tacky and in need of a serious upgrade. Horrible decor and the unit we were in did not look at all like the pictures on their website. Worst of all upon arrival there were little black hairs in the... More

At one street from the beach and shops with bus stop outside, this motel is well placed. Room was clean and recently refreshed. I stayed in the spa unit. The spa/ bathroom had 2 windows which the exterior stairs went next to. Although windows frosted could see people coming and going - was not sure what they could see in!... More

Spent one night here, it was perfect. We parked the car and were able to walk everywhere. The people managing the motels were very friendly and helpful. We were able to leave our car in the carpark for another night whilst we went to Kapiti Island. The motel was clean and tidy.

This is a hidden wee gem, with great service and value for money. The rooms have all that is needed for a romantic weekend getaway, with the spa bath and close proximity to a great Italian Restaurant. Although the noise of over zelous patrons can be heard at times late into the night, if in the front units, the place... More
