Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Had a great stay at the Beachfront Resort. The place is family run and feels like it in the best way. The staff is welcoming and the property looks and feels very well cared for. The room was spacious, clean, had a very well appointed kitchen and an amazing view of the water. The location is perfect, walkable to town but far enough away to feel very peaceful and secluded from the main town hubbub. Would highly recommend for anyone coming to Whitianga.

We had a 4 night stay at the Beachfront Resort. Paul was super-welcoming and helpful. My two daughters absolutely loved it here - the trampoline was a huge hit and it was great to be able to relax in the hot tub after a chilly dip. The room was very clean and comfortable with everything you need. Highly recommended.

Lovely, clean units with kitchenette and beach access. Our family enjoyed the hot tub and trampoline. Although it was too cold to go into the water, we appreciated that there were beach toys and kayaks available for our use. 10/10 would stay here again for the amenities and location.

We spent a couple of nights here, receiving a friendly and informative greeting from Kate. Our apartment (8) had lovely views out into the bay, was well equipped, comfortable and clean. It was so relaxing to sit on the deck and listen to the waves breaking on the beach. We were well positioned for sunrise over the bay too. Highly recommended.

Location is the big plus. Right on the beach, waking with the ocean on one side and bird life producing a dawn chorus to start the day. Spectacular sunrise with photos to prove it. Well maintained gardens, clean unit and everything we needed for a two day stay. The highlight is the deck on the front dune with a bbq and a view that is magnificent. Will definitely go again.

Beautiful place, we enjoyed every minute of our stay. The view was spectacular, we stayed on the beachside view and waking up to the view of the ocean was beautiful. We also went kayaking and it was such a beautiful relaxing experience.
