The room here is peaceful and well-lit, featuring comfortable beds, a cozy lounge, and a convenient kitchen.

Awesome location in an event that required a stop-over in Whitianga, KIND staff, everything was great. Location: the hotel was near to a beautiful beach, big supermarkets and the ferry. Besides, it was 5 mins walk from Buffalo Beach.

cheap and neat rooms with a view, friendly staff.

Great spot to stay! We were so pressed for time, but we’d totally come back here. It was the perfect home base for our awesome trip. the location was top-notch and the staff was super friendly the whole time! 😊

Friendly atmosphere, cheap, great location

The tiny sink

Such a lovely location, our large bright sunny room had a view of the sea. We really liked the way the hostel is split between houses so you have facilities shared between smaller numbers of people, its like a house share rather than a big hostel. Lots of free stuff too - Booked.nets, spades for hot water beach, beach towels, DVD.s, fishing rods. The team are really friendly and helpful. We were sad to leave and hope to come back sometime next year. Make sure you pick some pipis for dinner whilst you are there!

The location here is fantastic, easily within walking distance to all the places we wanted to visit, and just 2 km away from Combat Zone.

Lovely and clean. Booked a double room in one of the lodges, shared kitchen and bathroom with another guest, but plenty of space. Beach straight across the road.

Can't think of anything to dislike. Only thing to note: it's a longish walk from town if you don't have your own transport

The owner andthe manager are very nice. Helpto privode me tols to repair my bag. Alsothey provide feee wifi, though only 20m. But it is very convenient to plan next dayZs trip. Most other hotels try to penny customers on wifi.

over all its good . maybe more spacious

This place was a great base for traveling and exploring the area, located conveniently near restaurants and the mini ferry to cathedral cove.

The friendly and helpful staff, then the location, a beatiful beach just across the street. Sharing with interesting fellow travellers,all helped to make our "must do bucket list" expericence worth it.

Very nice stay, friendly staff. I wasnt housed with any lice ridden weirdos so thanks very much:)

All things considered, for instance price, there is nothing I didnt like about the Lodge.

I stayed at a cozy house in Whitianga for my trip to the Coromandel Peninsula. The 4-bed dorm room was beautiful and well-equipped, with a lovely kitchen and laundry facilities. The beach was just across the road, and the city center and ferry terminal were a short 10-minute walk away. The staff at the house were friendly and provided great service. I appreciated the thoughtful touches like beach toys and a fully equipped kitchen. a perfect base for exploring the area. Thanks for a great stay!

Totally recommend this hotel.

Very friendly stuffs and the manager, one of us missed a valuable ring and got returned, I got great support to fix my car's remote control, that let us to depature on time, also realy enjoy the quick and clean rooms.

Excellent value for money, with splendid, friendly staff. Many hobbies/activities catered for, and every possible gadget, sporting and fishing sport available either free (with deposit) or for low cost. Would unhesitatingly recommend to anyone.
