It was a nice place to stay. Was a little cold in the loft as the only heater was downstairs but the electric blankets made it bearable. Would not recommend for solo female travelers because there was no manual lock/ deadbolt on the door. So the only lock was the keycard lock.

Close to Bayfair & Bay Park and easy driving distance to Mt Maunganui & Tauranga. If a swim is required the beaches are just around the corner and a couple good quality cafes a short drive on your way to Mt Maunganui along the beach road.

I go here every year for the month of February. The beautiful beaches are steps away. Girven Takeaways is across the road. Excellent food at a good price. Bayfield mall is just up the block. Mount Maunganui is a short bus ride or it’s a five minute drive in the car. New Zealand is the most beautiful place on Earth. 🇳🇿
