Gorgeous views from every room. Very friendly & welcoming owners. Upgrades of the rooms are planned but already very pleasant & clean. The pool is lovely and includes the views! A hidden gem.

The manager was amazing and he tried being very accomodating which we really appreciate. Unfortunately, for the money payed at this time ($137.50) the place itself was highly disappointing. The room was extremely smelly (musty etc), the place was very outdated, the bed was not comfortable, there was mould on the walls of toilet, there was an issue with the water pressure in the shower and the night light on all night outside the room, which is understandable for safety but then there needs to be a black out curtain or something to block the light out. The view in the morning however was fantastic.

the property is probably overdue for some renovation as it is starting to show its age. however it was clean and comfortable and the owners were attentive to our needs and upgraded us to a more spacious room on arrival. situated out of town ,but within short drive of pahia.

Located on bend in river close to Haruru falls
Motel is right on the bend on the river just after the Haruru falls. Some rooms (1-7) are on a level with the pool and barbecue area - first photo. The upper floor rooms have views over the river and 8-10 have views of the falls from their private balconies.
