Pros - nice area, nice suite Cons - only bathroom on 3rd floor. No condiments including salt or pepper for cooking We booked a one bedroom suite and when we checked in, we were given a 3 bedroom 3 level suite. You could only use one bedroom, so we chose the one on the 3rd floor. There were only bathrooms on the 1st and 3rd floors so when you came into the house, you had to go up 2 flights to use it. It was a very nice suite other than that with a beautiful view from the top floor. There was everything you needed in the kitchen, very well equipped. We were surprised they didn't even have salt and pepper.

We stayed in a 3 bed apartment which was on 3 floors, so several steps! The weather was really hot, and an air con system on the upper sleeping area would have been useful, as the one on the middle floor didn’t cool upstairs. But a great stay, a nice outdoor pool, lovely check in staff. Apartment was really clean and modern, and the resort is a flat walking distance to the shops and restaurants. Also, it’s right next door to the Lost Springs hot pools. We would stay here again if we’re in Whitianga.

The apartment is spacious, modern and clean. The biggest attraction, though, is that it is just across the road from the magnificent Buffalo Beach with miles of sand and shallow water.

Despite the many stairs to get into the condo style accommodation, it was very modern and up-to-date interior. We used the oven to dine in which gave us a relaxing night in. Shower pressure was awesome! The staff was very easy to communicate with and much appreciative of them since we left a grocery bag. They retrieved it for us to pick up at the office.
