    We really enjoyed our 1 night stay at this gem of a place,...

    We really enjoyed our 1 night stay at this gem of a place, set in a lush forest. The surroundings were idyllic, with beautiful vistas over Whitianga town and beach. The bed was superb and breakfast was amazing - more than we could eat with more than 6 types of fruit, yoghurt, bacon & eggs, and mushrooms and tomatoes, toast...... We've never seen such a variety of teas and coffee on offer! Wish we had had more than 1 night to enjoy Beverley and Dave's wonderful hospitality. 10 out of 10!!

    We joined a cruise to the Cathedral Cove from Whitianga.

    We joined a cruise to the Cathedral Cove from Whitianga. It was very nice and enjoyable. The beach was scenic. It is a small town but with 2 big supermarkets where we can buy fresh local food. It is a long drive from Auckland. It would be easier if there is car ferry from Auckland east to the Coromandel pennisula.

    Whitianga is a beautiful place especially the area we stayed...

    Whitianga is a beautiful place especially the area we stayed in being surrounded by the beach. Everything is close by in walking distance. What a bonus. The people are lovely and friendly. We tried the Slice slice baby - pizza place because we seen a lot of people going in and out and now we know why! We also had fish and chips from the shop just next to the pizza and by far the best fish and chips I've had. Fresh and tasty.

    Small town but had most things you would want access to.

    Small town but had most things you would want access to. Lovely beach and it had a lovely peaceful feel about it. Enjoyed dining at Stoked Bar and Grill. Had a great vibe and was across from the beach.

    Our favourite activity was going on a Cathedral Cove Coast and cave tour with mercury Bay discoveries. Highly recommend getting out on the water. We enjoyed a dinner at Grace O'Malleys, generous meals at a reasonable price, with a beautiful view. We enjoyed the closeness to other beaches eg Hahei, Cooks Beach. We enjoyed taking the ferry across to Ferry landing to explore Flaxmore Bay and other landmarks. Great Mini Putt golf course , very well kept.

    Whitianga is the perfect place to stay on the Coromandel...

    Whitianga is the perfect place to stay on the Coromandel Peninsula. The town had plenty of facilities and we enjoyed using the passenger ferry to Shakespeare lookout. The town has plenty of bars, restaurants and cafes, some of the bars have DJ nights and live music. The town has plenty of little shops, we found everything we needed from a chemist to a second-hand book shop. There are lots of cute little independent boutiques & shops, convenience stores and some big brand names including Countdown, New World and Subway! Plus several places to get fuel. There are restaurants galore, Indian, Chinese, Thai, bistro style and pie shops. If we stayed here again we would rent a property a little bit away from the centre of town, the outdoor DJ kept us away until 12.45 one night!!

    Hands down one of the best places we have stayed. Exceptional service, clean, comfortable, gorgeous surroundings with lots to explore. The breakfast supplied was incredible and far exceeded our expectations. Hosts were absolutely wonderful, thought of everything with no little detail missed. The tree top bath house was bliss. Close to town, but far enough for some secluded luxury. Will definetly be back in summer. 10/10

    The property was even better than the photos. My wife and I strongly recommend that you do yourself a favour if your staying in Whitianga you can’t go wrong staying with these great hosts. I have to mention the breakfast I couldn’t eat until the evening… it was so good.. We loved the whole stay my only regret was we couldn’t stay longer. Great bed and pillows 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Perfect location for a relaxed break. Fun water taxi over to Whitianga which had plenty of restaurants and bars to choose from. The hosts were super helpful and gave us some great recommendations. Great location to pop to cathedral cove and hot water beach. Would love to return for another stop over.

    Evolve Bach was a lovely place to stay during our visit to Whitianga. We walked everywhere we needed, grocery, laundry mat, restaurants and more. It was an easy drive to Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove. Our host was responsive to inquiries and made our stay most enjoyable.

    This property and our hosts were absolutely faultless and delightful. In all our years of travelling we have never come across such an amazingly fitted out bathroom and bedroom. It is not the cheapest in town but in our opinion represents gtyvalue for money. Recommend.

    An older style motel right in the middle of Whitianga, near Buffalo Beach, the wharf and downtown shopping. The owner was super friendly, and the rooms were comfortable and clean - met our expectations.

    Another amazing stay at the waterfront apartments. Even though possibly that it's changed hands in my last trips. Nothing has changed in terms of comfort and how accommodating the owners are here.
