Harbourside Holiday Park, hotel in Whitianga

Located opposite Estuary Beach, Harbourside Holiday Park offers an outdoor seasonal swimming pool, a children's playground and a BBQ area with picnic tables.

We took our own food and ventured out at nighttime when we came back after being out, walking into the camp there was no lighting at the front above the sign or anywhere else up the driveway

Oceans 88 Whitianga Coastal Suites, hotel in Whitianga

Welcome to Oceans 88. We are absolute waterfront overlooking our stunning harbour with it’s own jetty. Literally, a hop skip and jump from the pool into the sea.

The pool, spa and bbq area was neat, the interior design of the room was stunning, the bed was comfortable and shower pressure was incredibly strong. I loved how they left a hot water bottle on the bed.

    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. 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!!

    A real 'wow' property with the most beautiful views over Whitianga Bay. Fantastic for two families (which we were effectively with our son and his family) given it was split into two apartments with the main one having enough entertainment space for everyone and a huge balcony. Really nicely appointed and furnished with good bathrooms/en suites and everything you might need in the kitchen. Had a bit of a fight over rooms they were so nice! Great range of toys and stuff in case you needed it.

    This place would have to be one of our favourite BnBs we’ve visited in NZ! Nestled into the bank of Brophys Bay, the studio looks onto the gorgeous coastline of Whitianga’s Buffalo Beach. It has everything we needed for our weekend getaway - Netflix, a comfy bed, outside coffee spot. They also have an outdoor bathtub, a little pathway that leads to the ocean and, the highlight of my morning, home made croissants with butter and jam. They made us feel so welcome and were exceptional hosts.

    Amazing property & location, better than any 5 star resort! The breakfast was very culinary and Don & Heather are outstanding hosts! The views during breakfast were incredible! The room we stayed in was super clean had all amenities with very nice thoughtful touches to make us fee like home. We even had our own garden with the coolest garden furniture! Ability to use the washer & dryer was very much appreciated. Highly recommend this property! We felt very welcomed!

    Faith and Ralph are excellent hosts. They make you feel so welcome. They couldn't be more helpful. Check-in and guest information book very informative. The unit itself is spotlessly clean. Lovely garden which guests can use too. Good breakfast items in the fridge. Very close to the centre of Whitianga and the supermarkets. We loved this place and will definitely stay again.

    The view is amazing. The apartment located away from the main house is beautifully decorated. It is a dream location and just 5 minutes drive away from Whitianga. The hosts were very nice and very discreet. We enjoyed the quietness and the beauty of the place. The 3 days that we spent there were a dream part of our vacation

    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.

    The space is so clean and classy. The decor was perfect. A lot of care went into designing the decor. The bed was totally comfortable. The location is great. Nice and quiet but still close to everything. The town of Whitianga is completely charming full of great things to do, close by.
