My daughter met me in Auckland from California and I came from Texas. Barbara and Stu were so sweet, kind and friendly. The breakfast room has a beautiful rectangle table I wanted to take home with me. The breakfast was amazing! Crispy meaty bacon, tasty sausage and the eggs were perfectly round. Thanks again for everything!

We did not enjoy the property. Our “chalet” had a very rusted cafe table and chairs on the front porch. Yuk. The staff looked like he hadn’t showered in days and wasn’t welcoming at all. I would NEVER recommend staying here. What a rip-off.
Just 328 feet from a fresh water swimming spot, Te Puru Holiday Park features BBQ facilities and a children’s playground. Most chalets feature a private patio with outdoor setting.

Thames is a quiet town with quite a few coffee shops and a good variety of stores to browse. The supermarket (Pack & Save) was close to where we were staying. There are several locations close to Thames that are worth a visit The Gold mine just north of town Cathedral beach and the hot water beach are worth the time to check out. A scenic drive up to Coramandel town is interesting. Just be careful on the narrow sea side road. Enjoy

Didnt know which cafe to choose, but this one had a lot of people in it, so we chose this one.Hot chocolate cafe. The big breakfast and the pancakes were delicious. Quaint, busy little township, just caught the tail end of the market. We stumbled on another cafe further up, which sold this devine louise cake & caramel wheaty slice. Yummy. I thoroughly enjoyed the Nakontong Thai restaurant for dinner too.

Shared bathroom and toilet wasn't good.
Shared bathroom and toilet wasn't good. Luckily for me there was only one other guest a female but that was awkward as we both wanted to shower at the same time. Lucky for both of us there were not 3 couples staying at the same time.

The Coastal walkway is a good walk. Old town worth a visit. Lots of good places to eat in town and some good shops and cafes. Lots of walks up the Kauaeranga river Valley in the Cormandel Forest Park.
Good base for surrounding areas, we did full circuit of Carmandel from here. Also enjoyed Gold mines tour at Waihi and walks on the Whatawheta river gorge

The Thames Goldmine Experience was awesome.
The Thames Goldmine Experience was awesome. It is run by volunteers that are passionate about keeping the history alive. We've been to several mine attractions, but this is the only one that has original equipment that actually runs for demonstration.
Excellent place to stay in Thames: great unit; 3 bedrooms, lovely living room and kitchen with all amenities needed for a longer stay. Lovely owners who stay next door. Quiet and peaceful, lots of privacy. Enough food in the cupboard to make some great breakfasts. Great shower. Spotless clean. Nice deck while not providing sea view still amazing view over the mountains and a quiet residential area. Excellent place to stay for group of friends or family to recharge from busy work or the busy city life. Would definitely stay here again
Where to begin ... everything fabulous! Very kind hosts, large apartment with great views (sunset!) and everything one might need in the kitchen (and good quality). Anna-Marie provided ample breakfast and other food: home-made cake, cookies and bread, salad from the garden, daily fresh eggs from their own chicken ... fantastic! The property is easy to find and perfectly located for Coromandel coast, the shorebirds at Miranda, Karangahake Gorge or Kauaeranga Valley.
Friendly easygoing owners of a historical building that is part of the Thames/Coromandel experience. The owners are very open about the “gold rush” simplicity of their home & provided lots of history to go with it. The whole package worked well for us. And yes, key to b&b success, breakfast arrangements were great for getting our days off to a good start, on time & owners were keen to assist in providing information and/or supplies where they could. THANK YOU!
A nice holiday park with plenty to do within the park and nearby. A nice river to swim in, some trails, games like table tennis, very friendly and helpful staff, and seemingly booked by overall good people. I ended up adding another night as I grew comfortable and really established myself into New Zealand, as this was my second spot I stayed during my trip. The kitchen was also pretty nice and well equipped.
The cottage was beautiful and exceeded our expectations. The personal touches definitely made it a home from home. The breakfast provisions were perfect as I hadn't remembered this would be provided from when I made the booking. I couldn't fault the cottage and Linda's communication was excellent. I would strongly recommend this cottage to anyone looking to stay in Thames and visit the Coromandel. Thank you!
We just spent one night at the motel to escape cyclone Gabrielle so we didn’t get to enjoy the pool or other facilities. But we appreciated the super friendly welcome by the staff and the clean and comfortable room. The location is great to explore Thames and the area. The kitchenette has everything needed to prepare breakfast or small meals. Beds were comfortable and felt fairly new.
Sunset hotel is a diamond in the rough we didn't expect much on Booking but the staff were friendly and helpful and the accommodation was spacious clean and very accomodating right on the beach and would highly recommend to other travelers
This property is very quaint, and the staff was extra helpful as we acclimated to New Zealand. Our unit was well-sized and perfect for our needs. It's the perfect base of operations for exploring the Coromandel.
Incredible and calm house lost in the trees very near to Thames city center
Very kind hosting with a lot of recommandations about where to go and what to visit
The aviation atmosphere is really great
Great location a short drive to Thames township.
Rooms were spacious and the view was great (enjoyed watching a spectacular sunset).
Staff were friendly and rooms were clean and tidily presented.
The location set in the back drop of the Thames scenic hills. The facilities were great & entertaining for myself & my son. Along with the beautiful Creek with lovely places to swim & enjoy.
The elderly couple at the front desk were amazing. They really made our stay a lot of fun. Also the motel had a friendly cat who wanted to hang out so I rate this place really high.
THE APARTMENT WAS LARGER THAN I EXPECTED, WHICH WAS A BONUS.
I LOVED THAT WE HAD SEPARATE BEDROOMS.
TUSCANY ON THAMES HAD A LOVELY WELCOMING FEELING, WOULD DEFINITELY STAY AGAIN :)
The Interior of our unit was smart and attractive. The bedding was fresh, upmarket and lovely to sleep in !!
We liked the setting of the Motel on the coast.
