Hokianga hotel rooms a the Independent

"Great view of the Ocean! Everything was clean and we had everything we needed. Please note that there isn’t air conditioning, but there is a fan and with the windows open there is usually a breeze. We loved the accommodations and the owners were very kind and offered recommendations for things to see around the Northland!"

"We had fallen in love with the Sands Hotel in an earlier overnight visit (2023). The ocean view from the room was exceptional and the weather was pleasant so we slept with the doors open listening the to ocean and the breeze. Staff was wonderful and meals were good. Folks went above and beyond by being able to make up an ad hoc dinner when the power was out - delicious fish dinner by candlelight. There was a decent number of construction projects underway so it looks like the hotel will only get better."
