My wife and I stayed on March 15. We were very impressed with our friendly host and beautifully appointed suite. We were wonderfully cool for sleeping with a nice breeze from the ocean. We were thoroughly satisfied and would recommend blue water apartments to anyone. No suggestions for improvement. We enjoyed a nice stroll along the beach and a morning... More

Thank you for your review, I am so pleased I was able to make your stay at Whitianga a memorable one. We are only a small motel but we endeavour to give our guests the best service we possibly can. Maybe we will see you again visiting the lovely Coromandel Peninsula. All the best. More

We found Blue Water by chance and could not believe our luck. It was about 10 meters from the sea, close to restaurants and supermarket and owned by a lovely lady, Vivienne. The welcome was warm, and we were encouraged to use the decking area in the front garden where we sat and watched the sun go down. The accommodation... More

We were looking for a base to discover the wonderful coromandel and couldn't have found a better place. It was only a short hop to Cathedral cove and hot water beach or the wonderful beaches to the north. The owner was warm, friendly and helpful. The rooms were large, comfortable and had everything we needed, the facilities were modern and... More

Highly recommend this motel to everyone! Best location-water front, walk distance to town center and wharf. Best facility-Huge screen TV, moden shower room. Best service-friendly host. Best duvet and comfortable beds! Best price- a 2 bedroom unit is only $240 per night for 4 adults and 1 child! We will definitely come back!

We arrived before the check-in and the host greeted us and let us in our room (2nd floor studio). The location was perfect - right near the beach and the central business street. We were able to walk to the Lost Spring. It had a great beach house feel. We were there during winter and it was chilly. The room... More

We stayed at Blue Water Holiday apartments during our 3week holiday touring both the South and North Islands. We have stayed in a number of Motels and apartments and were disappointed in this one. The room was clean and the bed comfortable, but, the 50" television was much too big in a fairly small room. The decor and furniture were... More

Thank you for your response with regard to the room you stayed in. We havee taken your comments on board and this room now has a kitchenette with basin, fridge and microwave. We have also recarpeted so the room is looking wonderful. We appreciate constructive critisism and have acted on your main concerns. It still has a 52" TV. More

We stayed in the newest addition to Blue Water Apartments - the king bed unit in front of property - and we were thrilled with it. Its literally a stones throw away from the sea, which just opens up like a picture in front of this property, we could see and hear the sea from our room. Spent every morning... More
