Looking back, it’s a great hub for a longer stay with all the options within a half hour depending on the direction you go. There isn’t a whole lot going on in this town but there are great beaches everywhere. This b&b is fantastic and the host, Carol, is a true gem. I can’t even begin to describe the kindness and generosity. We arrived in New Zealand and our luggage did not - Carol actually helped my wife by letting her borrrow some clothing! The location of the b&b is great - pathway takes you to the road and the beach is right there. Breakfast and the room itself were both excellent as well. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### yan Jan 31, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hostess by the beach Carol is a great host.

Home made preserves remarkable! ##### Gregory Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Larry, Toronto Sep 20, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet beautiful location on the Coromandel Carol offers a lovely and accommodating B & B on the Coromandel peninsula. The guest room is very large with a private outdoor sitting area and you have access to the common living/kitchen/dining area. Although not directly on the beach it is a very short walk across the road. We stayed in mid-September so the weather was cool but we were still able to walk and beach comb on the beach. Otamo and Opito beaches are a short 20 minute drive away and worth visiting as well. If we had more time in our itinerary we would have stayed longer and highly recommend it. ##### Larry Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Corry, Seattle Mar 7, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful stay across from a gorgeous beach Our hostess Carol has thought out every detail to make for a wonderful stay at her Band B.

The environment was excellent and the breakfast generous. We would definitely stay with Carol again if we are in the area. ##### Choy Ching ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 4, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great B&B in a seaside town. Fabulous from the moment we checked in. Watched the sunrise from the beach. Breakfast was wonderful. You need to stay more than one day in order to sample all the homemade jams and jellies on the homemade bread. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 14, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Akaroa on the Beach Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Akaroa-Hotels-Akaroa-On-The-Beach-Apartments.h9626017.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake Breeze Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Taupo-Hotels-Lake-Breeze-Motel.h5959092.Hotel-Information) > > [Horse and Jockey Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Horse-And-Jockey-Inn.h29357900.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeview Colonial Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Colonial-Village-Motel.h11453583.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Village Chalets Home of Kiwipaka](https://www.expedia.ca/Waitomo-Caves-Hotels-Kiwi-Paka-Waitomo.h19526472.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruapehu Country Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Ruapehu-Country-Lodge.h9625899.Hotel-Information) > > [Maple Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Wanaka-Hotels-Maple-Lodge.h1862628.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Chantillys Motor Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Taupo-Hotels-Chantillys-Motor-Lodge.h4528350.Hotel-Information) > > [Tudor Motor Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Tudor-Motor-Lodge.h9626531.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Rivers Boutique Lodge Ohakune](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Two-Rivers-Ohakune.h109320695.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Motorlodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Turangi-Hotels-Parklands-Motorlodge.h918774.Hotel-Information) > > [JetPark Hotel Hamilton Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Jet-Park-Hotel-Hamilton-Airport.h4281130.Hotel-Information) > > [Monty's self-contained unit](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Montys-Self-Contained-Unit.h37984382.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakefront Luxury](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Lakefront-Luxury.h37329794.Hotel-Information) > > [Acacia Cliffs Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Taupo-Hotels-Acacia-Cliffs-Lodge.h3918501.Hotel-Information) > > [Somersal Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Somersal-Bed-Breakfast.h4528347.Hotel-Information) > > [Baycrest Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Taupo-Hotels-Baycrest-Lodge.h558050.Hotel-Information) > > [Hamilton Settlers Motor Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Hamilton-Settlers-Motor-Lodge.h9127261.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Kuiti-Hotels-Waitomo-Lodge.h72941486.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Lodge Okataina](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Okataina-Hotels-Lakes-Lodge-Okataina.h88669411.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waterlily Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Waihi-Hotels-The-Waterlily-Gardens.h21518126.Hotel-Information) > > [Turangi Leisure Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Turangi-Hotels-Turangi-Leisure-Lodge.h61338998.Hotel-Information) > > [Te Anau Central Backpackers](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Central-Backpackers.h84134490.Hotel-Information) > > [Distinction Luxmore Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Distinction-Luxmore-Hotel.h519248.Hotel-Information) > > [Abel Tasman Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Marahau-Hotels-Abel-Tasman-Lodge.h20040118.Hotel-Information) > > [The Matarangi B & B](https://www.expedia.ca/Matarangi-Hotels-The-Matarangi-B-B.h97053938.Hotel-Information) > > [Awaroa Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Awaroa-Bay-Hotels-Awaroa-Lodge.h5417771.Hotel-Information)
