Quayside Apartments

This was our second stay here, and it was just as good as the previous time. The weather was fantastic, which meant more time in the pool. Thank goodness for aircon. We had a great view of the cruise ship anchored off the coast and then got to watch the tenders tying up at the isite wharf and discharging the tourists. We love the views from the deck and spent a fair bit of time sitting out there watching the world go by. We would like to think we will be back again as we really enjoy our stays here.

Yes as we left today we were throwing dates around to book our return trip to Quayside Apartments. This was our first time staying at these apartments and it was was a great long weekend. The location is fantastic. There are so many cafes, restaurants, and bars within a short walk. Our 2 bedroom apartment had nice river views. Our list includes 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 car parks, a decent size lounge and dining area, and a view. This apartment covered the lot. The kitchen had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. The apartment includes great bathrooms, a fully equipped laundry, and comfortable beds. On the fifth floor is a good size gym, sauna and day room with sofas and a TV. Alongside this is a good deck area with several tables and chairs. And the views are probably the best in Whakatane as this is one ot the tallest buildings around. Then there is the roof top pool. I tried to get in at least 2 swims each day. Yes there was only one towel per person, one dish wash tablet, one powder sachet for the washing machine, and no spare bin liners but it is not the end of the world. All the positives out weigh the few negatives many times over. Just go and sit on the deck for a few minutes and take in the view. That's what it's all about.

Lovely place to stay with a spacious apartment with a beautiful elevated outlook. So close to everything from walks by the water to shopping and cafes and restaurants.

There was a constant droning in the main bedroom n couldn’t sleep…didn’t happen first night so not sure what the cause was, but presumed it was something to do with vent on balcony.A shame as other than that it was great!

Really great location, walking distance to lots of eateries and bars. Really well appointed apartment with secure off street parking and roof top pool. Comfy couch and Netflix on Smart TV in lounge. Could've done without the motelier bursting into our apartment one morning with some other random person and waking us up and being all confused as to what WE were doing there! Thankfully I'd fallen asleep on couch so was fully clothed when she turned on the lights coz had she'd gone into bedroom would've been even more awkward ;)

apartment was so lovely. minor bugbear was the height of the bathroom vanity

Great place and wonderful view - highly recommend.
