We hadnt booked and just turned up, we had a great room and nothing was too much trouble. Great location right over the road from the sea. Great views and right next to an eathing and drinking venue, but we stayed a Saturday night and had no noise from next door and we were the closest unit to it

We booked the Anchorage from the Internet before arrival. We were not disappointed. Lovely place and setting. Excellent service. If dining out, try Seafood Only, just down the block. Excellent dining experience!!

My second visit to this motel. I stayed in one of the ground floor rooms facing the bay. The service is friendly and the facilities are extremely good. I will definitely return.

The facility is nice, but not outstanding, the location is good, but the rates certainly include a fee for the view. One imagines that great service could set this place apart, but it doesn't. I have to report that, having been granted our 15 minute leisurely late checkout, we STILL got a call at 5 to ten while we were... More

We are shocked by the content of this latest review, we have always been very obliging to any late checkout requests to which we simply reschedule the room to be last on the cleaning list. Our phone conversation with the guest was to establish whether they wished to checkout or stay another night, and we sincerely apologise if this came... More

We were a party of 11 who travel round New Zealand staying for a while to explore an area. We are unanimous in our praise for our recent stay. The position on the waterfront was great. The rooms are large, well presented and excellently serviced each day. There is a very tidy pool area including a thatched hut for shade... More

Very nice Motel. Booking via Internet very easy. Good conversation. It was even easy to arrive a little bit later in the evening. Aileen arranged this noncomplicated. The rooms were comfortabel and clean, also the shower. View to the bay from both floores, however a little bit better from the upper one. Therefore I would recommend to prefer a room... More
