Motel complex right across road from lovely Little Manly beach. Spacious rooms which were clean. Although the restaurant and breakfast were unavailable when we stayed there are very good restaurants for breakfasts through to evening meals in the township 5mins drive away. Only 30mins approx from Auckland city off Northern Motorway. Both Gulf Harbour and Penninsula Golf Courses are close... More

Having a side patio window and moving the outside table round the corner we had our own private balcony for sunrises and sunsets. Faces due East. The Little Manly Beach is straight across the busy road and... More

This motel is more than a motel with its recently opened cafe and breakfast room service the owners go above and beyond the typical motel stereotype. Not one to usually stay in motels, usually opting for hotels, I was pleasantly surprised at how clean, friendly and upmarket it was. Although it is situated on a busy road, this never bothered...

Hearing the owner tell me that I was the first one that had complained made me laugh, all those trucks and motorbikes on... More
