Top Whakatane Hotel Reviews

Private Coastal Sanctuary, Next to the beach!

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely cozy accommodation with stunning tropical style gardens in an excellent location right next to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here on our family holiday. Andrew was great to deal with and responded to any questions promptly. Hoping when we are next travelling to Whakatane this place is available for us to stay at again :)"

Pacific Coast Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"We loved our stay. Everything you needed, warm, spacious, quiet, convenient and my czn is still dreaming about the shower pressure 👍 I was looking for the electric blanket on the bed to find that there wasn't one .. being in the middle of winter! To my surprise I found that what was on the bed was more than ample and there was a spare blanket in the draw. Have stayed in several other motels there but will definitely return to the Pacific Coast motel when in town."
