I can't thank you enough for giving us such an amazing experience. The units were spotless, loads of blankets, pillows and towels. We had not been together for over 5 years and this is just where we needed to be. Used the BBQ, swam, walked the beach and easy access to the Marina at Tutakaka and the dairy. What a lovely couple running the Sands Motel. My eldest daughter flew out yesterday and my second daughter went back to Auckland. We now know where my husband and I can come for a break. We will be back. Carole

My partner and I were very pleased with this little motel. The staff were friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. The Unit was spotless and warm. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will happily stay there again sometime in the future.

My daughter and I spent 4 days in this beautiful part of NZ. While the motel is older, it has a very efficient heat pump which made it very comfortable. The location is as per the photos, right on the beach. Hosts are friendly, helpful and kind.
