Find the Cheap Matarangi Hotels

Our family of three stayed in Bayside Motel Whitianga for the last week of school summer holidays in 2022. We can not fault this place. From an excellent location, proximity to the beach and town, friendly and attentive hosts, to clean, modern and well equipped rooms. Off street parking, large bathroom, very quiet AC. Thank you Robyn and Warren for helping us with the medical issue we were suddenly facing and with recommendations of places to visit. We felt very welcome.

We stayed at Baileys the nights of February 27 and 28, 2023, in an upstairs unit. Positives - -Large unit with a comfortable bed -Nice shower with good water pressure -Great view from the unit and patio of the ocean -Very clean Negatives -The owner’s unit on the lower level unfortunately was damaged in the cyclone on February 12. They are having extensive remodeling done as a result and our unit was quite noisy with hammering and drilling etc. This started about 8:00 am and lasted all day both days. We were not forewarned of this despite having emailed the motel prior to our visit for a status due to the cyclone. -Wi-Fi is slow, at best had two bars. -The motel is at a busy corner with lots of truck traffic during the day - it’s noisy when the patio door is open. It quiets down at night.

Nice location, off the beach. Nice layout of the accommodation and conference facilities. Family running the Lodge were lovely, I think they are fairly new to this accommodation. The beds in the rooms had no consistency - I had a conversation at breakfast with a conference colleague (we were both bemoaning the beds). I thought she must have had the same very soft bed as me, but it turned out hers was hard as rock whereas mine was soft as clay. Catering was interesting to say the least. The continental breakfast option was good and wide selection available. The cooked option was a little 'odd' - no selection - everyone got the same on every plate - a fried egg on top of a hash brown, next to a few beans, one rasher bacon alongside a side salad with a soy sauce drizzle. No mushrooms, choice of how your egg done, no sausage etc. A bit odd. Conference delegates not staying at the accommodation had a bit of a weird time accessing a loo - because those of us staying on site had our own loos in their room. The other thing that was really odd - the TV had a notice saying do not change channels, $50 fee if you change the channels which I took a photo of - but there were only 3 channels working in my room! Would I stay here again - I think the rooms were 'on par' with any rooms available in the area, and the young couple who run the place were really nice, but on balance I think I would try somewhere else.

Very clean ! Good price ! Would deffinetly stay again !

This place is a gem. We could have stayed days if we were able to. Fresh, loved, clean and amazing sea views. If you choose this place for a stay try for a ground floor unit and you will have chosen wisely. Walk to main centre and seafront. Good value for money. Very comfy and friendly staff.

We booked a one bedroom apartment via ***********. We were allocated a two bedroom/two bathroom set out over two floors, but were not able to use the second bedroom and second bathroom or we would be charged an additional rate which was fair enough. The apartment was spacious, laundry area with tub and dryer. Upstairs was big open plan lounge and kitchen. Bathroom with a bath and shower over. Bedroom with a good sized bed and decent wardrobe space. Iron and ironing board. The outdoor area had a clothes rack to dry clothes. Nice balcony overlooking the pool, which can be noisy at times, however, there is a 8pm noise control in place which works well. Very quiet over night, until the birds wake at 5 a.m. ! Easy few minutes walk to Whitianga Wharf, town centre and beach. Supermarkets a short drive away, or about a 20 minute walk. There is a Four Square around the corner for basics. No late check out allowed (10 a.m.) Definitely recommend and would stay again.

Thank you Daniel for holding our booking. We found our room to be very cramped, maybe due to it being recessed to allow for stairs up to the first floor rooms. Could hear when someone used the toilet in the above room! Not much bench space, no running water apart from in the bathroom, and no electric blankets! Would suggest all info leaflets be compiled into a suitable folder, including instructions for the tv. Read that room included free continental breakfast, only tea/coffee/milk/sugar available! Pleasant outdoor area. Great location.
