We found the motel room clean, towels and bedding clean and very comfy bed, good value for the price. Loved the outdoor area at the back, not something you always get with a motel unit. Very handy for the local shops and Napier town. Best of all was that the owners are 'pet friendly', hard to find .

We recently spent one night at the Bay Beauty while traveling between Wellington and Whangamata with two small dogs. We often travel with the dogs and make use of the various pet friendly accommodations now available. Bay Beauty is the best we have stayed as yet in terms of suitability for pets. Our room had a full fenced, grassed out door area which meant we were able to leave the door open and they could come in and out as they pleased and even chat to the other pet guests through the fence. Couldn't fault the staff, lovely and friendly. Overall the room was nice if a little older but very clean and really large. Would definitely stay here again when in the Napier area.

My wife and I went down to Napier during Easter. Although we made a pretty late booking we were pleasantly surprised by the deal offered to us. It saved us 2 meals in our stay of 2 nights. The rooms were sufficiently large with extra outdoor space, great kitchen space and bathrooms. In short the deal was great value for money.
Our best experience however was with the very homely, warm and helpful hosts. We knew we made the right choice as soon as we were shown into our rooms.

We went with family and friends to stay for 3 nights and it fit in well with us as we needed 3 separate units near each other. On arrival we were met by friendly hosts and the units were a good size, but tired and needed a better clean.
We did however have a great time.

The rooms at this motel are such a good size with quite good amenities also. The owners were very nice and helpful. It is indeed very good value for money and friend I went with was impressed enough that she will certainly consider staying here again when herself and husband visit the Hawkes Bay area again as they often do. Enjoyed the spa also.

Great place to stay in Napier with your family. The one-bed unit was spacious, with a courtyard at the back -- there was ample space for our daughter to play. The manager provided us cartoon DVDs, which kept our daughter busy. The managers were happy to provide us advice or help us (e.g buying stuff from the supermarket, welcome fruit), which was much appreciated. We were able to checkout late without any extra charges. Overall a very good experience.

I stayed here while my house had some repairs. Service was excellent and management friendly. There were a selection of beverages from plunger coffee to assorted teas. I had fun trying them all. I sat in the sun in my private courtyard with my book and radio. I could have brought my pet but he was being cared for at home. I noticed there were towels specially for animals.The Marewa shops are within easy walking distance.
I have no hesitation in recommending this quiet motel to other guests.

With a little girl and a dog finding accomodation can sometimes be challenging. The Bay Beauty (ex-Sherwood Lodge) was able to provide us with basic but acceptable facilities.Although a bit dated everything worked and there was a little fenced garden area at the rear of the unit for the dog to sniff around in. Location was ok for us but a little far from the town centre if you wanted to walk. Felt the place needed a refresh and a really good vacuum but no real cleanliness complaints. Nice rose garden couple of minutes walk up the road.
