A fabulous place for a weekend away.. we felt like we were in our own wee paradise. The gardens and pool made it very private and like a tropical island. The Bruce Mason centre was so close we could walk to our event. Will be back.

Great the location as walkable to everything you need&want yet relatively quiet area. Clean and plenty of space for a couple. It’s an old motel building so let’s not expect anything super shiny. Much appreciate the lovely hospitality. :)

Quaint and Hidden Charm

This is a gorgeous little place tucked nicely off The Prominad in Takapuna. It has an old-school, classic charm to it. It still has a key to unlock the room, which I loved. The room was a perfect size, extremely clean, and well kept. I would recommend this to anyone.
