Asure Colonial Lodge Motel
Manager was wonderful and support staff were super lovely too! The room was clean, with heaps of beds which surprised us. We only booked for two adults and a child, but you could easily sleep 5 people. Such a great place to stay if you have kids. We would definitely stay again 😊

Beach Front Motel Napier
I would happily stay here again and would recommend it to family and friends. We requested a room change due to stairs, and even though they were full they really tried to accommodate our request. I just wish our coffee was restocked.
