Property is well located to town where multiple venues for eating and drinking are available. The additional twin bed was quite uncomfortable. It is an older hotel that does need updating

Close to beach; everything you need in an efficiency. Our unit was next to stairs to 2nd floor and somewhat noisy
It is close to the beach and town centre. Th3 only thing missing in the rooms were heat pumps for the AC as it was warm in the rooms. A fabulos place to stay.
Stay was good, clean. However, when I booked through Expedia, the price I clicked was $180. I was charged $210 by the resort, despite providing screenshots of the price I agreed to. They also need to get a different brand of instant hot chocolate, as it was terrible.
Very pleased we decided to come to Whitianga. From the time we arrived we have felt genuinely welcomed. Unit is very comfortable. We have a view to Buffalo Beach. Service staff always helpful
We even stayed an extra night. We will be back
Loved this as accommodation for our vacation. The staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The unit itself contained everything we needed and more for a comfortable stay. Definitely will be coming back on our next stay in Coromandel!

Great room sizes, nice and close within walking distance to the main town, playgrounds, eatery, shopping and most importantly the beautiful beach. Perfect for families!
Some ants 🐜 were visiting during our stay however but otherwise a fantastic stay.

We had a ground floor property with no air conditioning and only two windows that could open. The large window by the road had damaged stays and the securistay was missing . The only way to keep the property cool was to leave the window open however this was too unsafe as it opens onto a busy road . This was the worst nights sleep we have had ever.

Thank you for staying with us. We are sorry we didn't meet all your expectations. We pride ourselves in delivering a great friendly service. Next time you stay with us please do not hesitate to contact our friendly team asap so we can better serve you. Sincerely,
The property is well maintained, and the unit itself had everything we needed for a three night stay. The location made it was easy to walk to restaurants or just wander about town.
Chose the room for the view from the bslcony but didn't end up spending time there. Room was spacious & comfortable & well layed out, but bathroom was dated with cracked floor tile & marked basin. Woken early both mornings by glass bottles being dumped in the central recycling bins under the external stairs below our room.
The room was on a side road off the main beach road with a side view of the sea. Hence "Beachside Resort". Tv was minimal with only 4 freeview channels but there was you tube etc.
The shower didn't work but the lovely lady arranged another room which was fine. No aircon or sky.
Excellent Overnight stay. From checkin to check out. Had ground room 1 bedroom apartment which had queen bed and a single bed in the lounge it had everything we needed. The grounds are beautifully kept. Next time we’ll bring the kids. Walking distance to town nice 5 min walk. We booked here to go to the Lost Sorings which was amazing 2 min drive away. The pool is awesome just had the most relaxing stay in the middle of winter! Quiet and peaceful and safe. Beachside resort highly recommended for that quick getaway 🙌

Thank you so much for a lovely comment. We hope to you and your family back at Beachside
I book a superior full beach view and paid an extra $60 but was given a partial view room. I bought this up with the lady reception but the Staff tried to talk their way out of it. Felt that we were misled by either Expedia or taken advantage of by the motel. This was not how the motel should treat the customers advertising one thing but giving another
Honesty goes a long way.
The motel itself was well situated and was well maintained with all utensils for a quick easy cooking.
