Detailed Reviews
Well appointed apartment in a great location to explore the area. You are provided with a parking bay for convenience. The beds are a bit firm and this may be challenging to some travellers. All in all great value for money.

Spacious two bedroom apartment in a great location with only a short walk to town. Our kids were in the pool for hours and we also enjoyed the extra large hot tub. Special thanks to Maree for making our stay possible after I made an error with our booking dates - delightful hosts who were very accommodating and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed for a very pleasant stay.

Wasn’t my first pick but others sold out due to school holidays. #44 ( managed by Bach care)was clean, spacious and warm. Handy walk to most places. A peep of the marina, good sized outdoor deck, and off street parking. Slightly strange kitchen layout to suit wheelchairs. Appreciated the welcome bubbles, and Nespresso coffee. Only downside was slightly cavern like bedroom, with sub quality linen and bedding, cheap toilet paper, and no Wifi.

Booked a Park and Marina View Apartment which was stated on their Booking Confirmation. Mistakenly believed that the unit would, sort of; overlook a Park and a Marina. Very disappointed when arrived in our unit. The Marina View was almost non-existent, overlooked a storage block and the Park was distant. If only partial/minimal views are provided, this should be stated up front on advertising and documentation. Such a let down when expectations are not even close to being met. Be sure to clarify the EXACT location of your unit before booking. Also, our unit had no A/C or window in bedroom - only rattling fans.

To start off it was quite hard to get hold
of reception to check in. when we first arrived the reception was closed. And when we checked out no one was their to give the keys to.
When we got to the room it had a really bad smell of old takeaway food. The carpets were dirty with old food stains and need a good clean .
Very noisy at night time makes it hard to sleep.
I wouldn’t stay here again.
Positives are wifi was very fast and hotel was walking distance to everything which was good.

Travelling with friends who had specifically requested 1 bedroom apartments with Marina & River Front views having booked several months ago.
On arrival was given apartments overlooking vacant block where caravans were stored & in the far distance a glimpse of the water only.
So disappointing.

After a week's break in the Coromandel, our car broke down as we were setting off home for Wellington. It was a public holiday in the middle of the Christmas/ New Year period and we needed to find accommodation ASAP. I rang Marina Park and Maree went out of her way to help us! She quickly found us her only available property and had it cleaned so quickly that within a few hours of the car breaking down we were in and relaxing by the pool.
Maree and Kevin were outstanding Property Managers, the facilities were fantastic and immaculately clean. The location is fantastic and the apartments have views around the Marina and overlooking the town.
We could not have wished for a nicer property in a convenient location (we didn't have a car, but everything was within a 5-minute walk). Maree and Kevin really have created a relaxing and friendly holiday getaway!

We booked a two bedroom apartment & Maree was very helpful. We had a lovely, relaxing holiday. Enjoyed the hot tub & pool. Everything we needed was within walking distance. The actual apartment was spacious & had everything we needed. It was like home from home! We would definitely book again!!!

Our apartment was a bit run down, with a view of an empty section. The bed was terrible and so hard, we have to go and buy a topper pad, to make it barely comfortable. We should of complained. Pretty disappointing. The location and pool are a good consolation.

Stayed for four nights last week. When we walked into our room we were stunned by how good the view was. Comfortable, clean, spacious apartment. Just perfect for a short stay. And the view overlooking the marina made it all so special. Great pool and spa too. Easy, flat walk to bars and shops. Thanks Maree for looking after us, we had a great break.
