Find the Cheap Papamoa Hotels

We stayed in beachfront spa villa. The unit is better than what is shown in the pictures, spacious bathroom with large spa looking out towards the beach, bright room with comfortable bed and the best thing of all is 'out of this world' view of Papamoa Beach. There is a short path leading from the deck to the beach (no roads to cross). We enjoyed eating fish and chips on the deck. We also had breakfasts in cafe Gather just across the road and dinner in Lantern. Both places were very good! The holiday park is walking distance from Papamoa Plaza with all the shops nearby. You can also hire bikes at the reception.

What a amazing time we had. gentleman at reception was so pleasant and no messing around he had everything ready on arrival. Rooms are big and very clean and modern. everything you need. grounds and pool are well maintained, perfect spot to bring the kids at any time of the year. as the pool and spa are warm and have covered areas to by and watch kids while they swim. Just perfect

The place is very accesible from state hiway and few blocks away from Bayfair mall. We did not expect that a motel could have been that complete. The check in was very smooth. The guy accompanied us to our room. The unit has 2 floors. Ground floor has 1 single bed, small receiving area and mini kitchen. Mini kitchen has cuttleries, kitchen utensils, pans and mini fridge. The toilet hAs bath tub and complete with toiletries. Queen size bed is uptairs. I must commend this has the most generous plug/ socket that we have ever stayed in! I think the entire unit has 5 x 2 plugs. Yehey!! Thats 10 gadgets or appliance at the same time. Lol. There is a heater panel as well but electric fan is provided too. We are delighted that we were able to use their heated pool After a tiring day from walking around. The check out was fast and easy too! Will recommend this motel to everyone who does not expect something grand and not fussy. We are happy to stay here again and again in the future

This establishment allows pets, but quite frankly I wouldn't let my dog anywhere near it. Spent a week here on work (clearly upset someone in bookings) and found it thoroughly unpleasant. On entry to the room I was greeted with carpet stains and an aroma akin to an ailing widowers home. Single beds serve as lounge seating and wooden decor and panelling throughout gives a distinctly 80s vibe. Shower is lined with black mould. The thermal pool may well be very pleasant but given its condition (refer to photographs) was not something I wanted to immerse my body in. Location is undesirable and driveway is on a corner of a busy road which is treacherous. All in all a dreadful time. Fortunately a corkscrew is supplied, as if you stay here you'll certainly want to drink.

We had misfortune of booking and staying at this motel. The motel lady Kerry-Ann behaved really harshly when we were late to check out by 5 minutes. I was travelling with my 80-year old father-in-law and my 4-year old son. Due to some reasons, we got a bit late to check out by few minutes. I requested late check-out by one hour and she refused it strictly (did not allow even 5 minutes). Afterwards, she came at the door at the stroke of 10 o'clock and I said we are almost ready and would leave in few minutes. She started behaving rude and we were literally thrown out of the door with my kid and family. Never had such horrible experience in NZ. Poor manners. She said she took an early check-in because someone paid for that! How can they allow an early check-in just after 30 minutes of check-out? When I asked for early checkin day before my travel, she did not agree easily and said maximum she can do is two hours before 2pm! That means different standards for different customers or just plain lies? The day before my travel, my kid had lot of vomiting and diahrrea and I requested that if she could cancel my booking and refund the amount. She hassled us lot and told she would cancel the booking only if she could onsell. Nowadays, after the covid age, most of the motel owners are flexible enough with bookings and they allow cancellation due to medical emergency! Finally I had to travel with my sick kid because I did not want to lose out the amount. We also saw a big notice inside room threatening for fines if dishes are left unclean, moving furniture etc. The motel also charges 3% surcharge over the total price because of credit card payment and there is no other way to pay (so be ready to shell out that extra 3%)! The motel owner needs to take some lessons on humanity. She needs to learn how to behave with customers. Customers need to be treated with respect. Please be careful while dealing with this motel and be ready well ahead of your check-out time. Otherwise, be ready to be kicked out rudely.

Loved this hotel! Simon was very welcoming and incredibly accommodating especially with providing a cot for our toddler and making sure we had enough blankets etc for him. Beds were super comfy, carpet nice and plush, everything is new! Also loved the eco aspect of the whole place with sensor lighting etc which felt very modern as well as being excellent for the environment. Loved the room access on ground level straight to the carpark which was handy for pram (and I’m assuming wheelchair) access. Would highly recommend!
