Top Waiau Hotel Reviews

Beachside Resort Whitianga

10/10 Excellent

"Receptionist was very friendly. Have stayed a couple of times now close to town and the beach always clean and tidy. Had a great view of Buffalo beach on our balcony ."

Albert Number 6 Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly helpful staff. Pretty motel, set up nicely. Heater in room, free Netflix. Fridge and microwave. Close to food and beach. We miss it already."

Tasman Holiday Parks – Hahei Beach

10/10 Excellent

"A great spot to stay that is close to the beach. The staff were lovely enough to turn our heater on in our cabin before we arrived."

Waterfront Apartments Whitianga

10/10 Excellent

"We had an incredible few days in The Coromandel and our apartment at Waterfront Apartments in Whitianga was the perfect base. It was clean and spacious with incredible views. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped, which meant we we were able to cook every night of our stay. Having Sky TV to watch was a real bonus too. The owners couldn't have been more helpful and even took our dried washing to our room while we were out. I recommend this place to anyone visiting this truly beautiful part of the world."

Oceans Resort Whitianga

8/10 Good

"Great central location!"

Bailey's At The Beach Motel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic family weekend stay at Baileys at the Beach in Whitianga. The room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location is absolutely perfect. The beach is literally right on your doorstep, making it easy to enjoy morning walks and sunset views. The town centre is just a short stroll away, with plenty of great cafés, restaurants, and eateries to choose from. It's also an excellent base for exploring the Coromandel. We were able to easily visit popular attractions including Coromandel Town, Hahei Beach, Hot Water Beach, and Cathedral Cove, all within a short drive. What really made our stay special were the hosts. They were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. If you're looking for comfortable accommodation in a brilliant location with genuinely awesome hosts, we highly recommend Baileys at the Beach. We would happily stay again!"

Peninsula Motel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 2 nights in a Superior Deluxe Studio over the weekend. The room was clean, comfortable, well maintained and large for a studio. The kitchenette had all the essentials and had the weather been better we would have enjoyed the deck area. The motel is a 5 min walk to the centre of town which made getting around easy. Relaxed and friendly service from Fred added to our experience. We were very happy with our choice, especially for the price paid."

Harbour View Motel Coromandel
