Parehua Resort
The room was large and well-appointed. Really liked the dishwasher. Everything was clean and functioned correctly. Only issue was that flies kept coming in from somewhere and we couldn't find the source. Room service was rapid and the meal was delicious.

Greytown Campground
Quiet, clean and convenient holiday park in a semi-rural setting, yet only 5 minutes walk from town. Super quick check-in with everything we needed for a great one night stay, including a well-equipped and well-kept communal kitchen.
