Waterfront Apartments Whitianga

Hubby and I decided to have a pre-Christmas break here before the crowds descended on Whitianga, and enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere. The views from our apartment were really good, but we didn't use the glassed-in balcony, as the timber beam across the middle of the windows cut into the view, so we preferred to sit in the lounge area and look out through those window instead. Be aware that the location on the main waterfront road means a lot of traffic noise in busier seasons. I would recommend earplugs at night. The fan was good, but air-conditioning would have been even better! We stayed for 6 nights, and would have to say that the apartment isn't really set up for stays this long, as there is no storage in the kitchen, no drawers in the bedroom, and the fridge is very small. We made do by using our suitcases as drawers, and setting up some cardboard cartons as kitchen shelves, as we mostly did our own catering. The bed was very comfortable, but not really set up for sitting up in bed reading or watching TV, as it would start to move across the room when we leaned against the wall. We tried using the door stopper under one of the rear bed wheels, but that only helped on one side. If we stayed in Whitianga again, we would probably look for a place with more storage and air-conditioning. However, for the price, the location and views were very good, and I loved being able to walk across the road to go for a swim.

The appart was fantastic with a fantastic view and good facilities. Chri and Gina, the hosts, are a lovely couple and we're knowledgeable on the area. Supermarket was just round the corner and it was only a 10 min walk to restaurants. The area is a beautiful place to visit.

Lovely, spacious and well appointed apartment for our family of 4 adults. Beautiful location, super close to everything. We booked very last minute and Chris was more than accommodating with our request. Would have loved to have stayed longer....

We stayed at the penthouse top floor, stunning views, beautiful apartment. This is a 2 bedroom apartment and would highly recommend. Location was perfect, Just a few minutes walk to the Main Street and lots of eateries. Laundry available onsite, and staff were very friendly and helpful in advising things to do.
