I was greeted with a friendly welcome at reception, always appreciated after a long journey. I was impressed to find how spacious, clean and comfortable (and well equipped) the "Garden Chalet" was. Consisting of a single room functioning as bedroom (a very comfortable bed) lounge/dining and a kitchen area. A separate toilet/shower room. Accessed through sliding glass doors the chalet has it's own enclosed courtyard/garden. Parking is right outside the chalet which was handy. The front of the motel is located off the main road into Tairua, around 500 meters or so from the shops, cafes, etc. The back of the motel is on a quiet road, about 100 meters from the estuary, ferry / fishing wharf and local scenic walks. Staff were friendly and helpful and helped make it a relaxing stay. I definitely recommend and I will being staying there again.…
Had originally booked as partner was doing K2 which was postponed. Decided to visit anyway and stayed a week. Had a one bedroom unit. Very clean and tidy with great facilities. Steve really helpful and a lovely short walk into town for restaurants etc. great view from unit. was great they offered beach towels and had spades for hot water beach. Would certainly stay again.
We booked this motel last minute as we couldn't travel through Auckland due to Covid level 3 there. We're pleased we did, it is very clean and host Steven is very helpful. We didn't know it was right next to the Tairua ramp but that was super convenient. Close to shops and restaurants.
During our stay at Tairua Shores motel Steven was extremely accomodation to my group as we struggled to find accomodation over the New Years period. The accomodation was clean and the facilities provided were immaculate. Steven went above and beyond for our stay and we highly appreciated it. We were blown away by our stay at the motel and would highly recommend to any friends or family.
Stayed here and got free upgrade to one bedroom unit. Great kitchen facilities which allows you to cook . Great views to harbour. Clean and spacious with internet too. Couple of good restaurants within walking distance and nice walks you can do round and town. Great value for money!
Lovely motel just down the road from ‘town’ with restaurants and cafes. Rooms are clean and very spacious. When the road back to Auckland was closed due to flooding they extended my check out and rang to let me know when the road was open again - great service. Would recommend and stay again.
On arrival we were welcomed by a lovely young lady who was both pleasant & helpful. We were almost blown away by the spacious clean rooms. Well appointed, clean spacious and with a lovely enclosed courtyard where we could sit in peace & quit and enjoy sundowners. The Motel is around 800m from the village with shops & restaurants to cover most of ones needs. My only complaint was our rooms shower was so limited in water flow that we could barely wash our hair (but our friends shower was fine) and the BBQ facilities were a little neglected, although we managed to cook a lovely dinner on one we found that was in reasonable condition. Would I recommend the establishment .. well hell yes !!
Just back from a few days based at Tirua Shores Motel. Great decision!! We had a family unit, which could sleep 3/5 adults. It was spacious, well equipped, very clean and comfortable. The hosts are very welcoming and helpful. The motel is well located on the main road, yet right by the estuary, ferry and easy walks to the shops/cafes/ historic trail. Highly recommended!! We’ll definitely be back!
Room was clean and tidy, staff was friendly, good value. It's not a 5 star hotel, but I would give it a top rating comparing with other motels or hotels I have stayed in. Parking is easy too just outside the unit. Recommended.
We had the apartment nearest the shore, with a view from the kitchen and lounge of the area by the slipway, which was pleasant. There was also a seating area outside the kitchen door with a similar view. However, although the description says it is fully refurbished, the facilities were dated and basic, the curtains wouldn’t close fully, it was draughty and the doorframe was loose.
