Reviews for Beachfront Resort
Review 1:There were limited facilities such as drawers to store clothing
Review 2:The location with direct access to the beach is fantastic for young children. The owners are very friendly.
Review 3:Our kitchen unit had an ant infestation, staff were hardly around and no refund! Room later advertised at a reduced rate once we were locked in - book late if you must stay here
Review 4:Liked the beachfront location
Review 5:Non
Review 6:It is second time for me choosing this lovely place. The service is perfect, staff is friendly, room is tidy and clean. This place is never disappoint me! Well done!
Review 7:Loved staying here! Suggested improvements: would prefer soap or shower gel to bath foam in the shower, and the only kitchen items missing were washing up gloves.
Review 8:Loved the fabulous view from our room and the apartment was absolutely spotlessly clean and well cared for. Our hosts were lovely, helpful and accommodating. We had a great time!
Review 9:The room was dated, our view was of a main road in one window and a rusted down pipe in the other window. We thought we may have gotten a view.. But sadly no
Review 10:The location, and it was clean..
Review 11:The resort is far from any restaurant and did not offer any meal. I also would've changed the layout in the unit as we struggled to watch TV from the bed.
Review 12:The view of the sea was stunning and the unit was spotless.
Review 13:We liked having a newly renovated downstairs unit where we stepped out onto the lawn which fronted the beach and had lovely views across the bay. As a self-catering unit everything was provided - large frig, microwave and stove top and barbecue in the well maintained garden which also had an outside spa. Our unit comprised a queen sized bed and 2 single beds in another room. We would highly recommend staying at the Beachfront Resort being the only accommodation in Whitianga situated on absolute beachfront.
Review 14:Overgrown or too low tree branches on the sidewalk to the common area and bar-b-que area. A small amount of trimming would make a huge difference.
Review 15:Beautiful, fresh remodel. Wonderful location almost on the beach.
Review 16:The bed was by far too soft & the fridge did not stop to make noise - does not help to get a good sleep. We had a cot for our baby. Rooms are ok 2 or 3 but too small for 4 people. Overall a little expensive for what it is, but this appreciaton may have to be considered into a local seasonnal context
Review 17:The staff and the location are very good. Paul and Kate are very friendly, helpful to change our booking dates. Different to other hotels that have the road in front, BFR is right on the beach wich obviously is very enjoyable with a little garden and bbq area.
Review 18:Leaving.
Review 19:We stayed 3 nights in #8.. I have to say this looked to be the best room in the place. Breakfast watching the sun rise with the wall to wall glass windows that open riiiiiight the way up was just breath taking. I NEVER write reviews but have to say the service and location of this place was second to none. We have been staying in 5 star hotels the whole stay in NZ in this is and will continue to be the absolute most favorite. Couldn't be happier! Kate, you're the best.
Review 20:The owners had put a lot of thought into equipping the property. Good utensils and crockery in the kitchen. Although there are only 2 rings to cook on there is a microwave and (shared) gas barbecue The location is stunning. Excellent wifi.
Review 21:Nothing!
Review 22:Looking from our upstairs balcony over the lawn, then the small sandhill to the beach was just magic. The moon glistened in the water and it was so easy to go swimming, walking and just generally enjoy being right on the beach. This was also a haven for young families with the downstairs units having outside tables to eat at, a trampoline and spa pool. The children were easily watched and soon made friends with the other children.
Review 23:Can't think of anything.
Review 24:The view on entering the room was stunning and truly a beachfront stay. Great swimming just at the end of the garden. Although a bit away from town centre no problem to walk or drive there. Free use of boogie boards and spades for hot water beach visit! Great location for visiting local walks cathedral cove although note the ferry to Mercury Bay is pedestrian only. Would stay again readily.
Review 25:No
Review 26:Good location ,you can see the sea when you open the door ,the view juest like the picture show you ,but must pay when you use the washing machine !
Review 27:Nothing, it was good.
Review 28:A clean, tidy, well appointed motel with the luxury of being right on the beach. The spa pool was wonderful under the stars. We received a great welcome, and felt happy that we would be well catered for should we have needed anything. The unit was especially warm considering the time of year, and we didn't need to even have a heater on. Watched a fabulous sunrise from our upstairs balcony. Would definitely recommend for a weekend get-away.

Review 67:Bathroom very small. Double bed in small alcove with difficult access one side and no room for bedside table.
Review 68:Great location on lovely beach. Room opened onto private patio and garden, then direct to beach. Very friendly hosts.
Review 69:Great place on the beach, out of town, but not too far. We enjoyed sitting on the grass reading books with the beach a few metres away and testing the hot water tub when it got a little cooler in the afternoon. Great place to relax. Owners were very friendly and helpful with all our questions. Rooms - new bathroom and kitchen and were very clean and tidy.
Review 70:Very friendly staff, lovely apartments very well equipped. A fair old walk into town if you want to go in to eat, but the spot right on the bay makes up for that. First rate accommodation.
Review 71:Unfortunately we expected another kind of accommodation. It reminded us more of a cabin or motel next to the beach but not a resort. If you read the word beachfront resort you have totally different picture in your mind, especially for that price. Our room was overpriced, no seaview, old interior and no resort feeling at all.
Review 72:We enjoyed the view, garden and nice welcome by our host. He was very helpful and gave us a lot of information about the area. It was great to be just step away from the beach.
Review 73:Uncomfortable sofas inside ...TV could not be viewed in bed and a lot of noise thru walls plus lack of privacy in bathroom with walkway right by window. Second sleeping area had to be entered to go to the bathroom.
Review 74:The stunning views....good beds.Very clean...pretty well equipped.
Review 75:The location was perfect, just a little outside of town with your own virtually private beach out front. The property was great for our families, lots of stuff for the kids to do-trampoline, beach and beach toys, while the adults grilled dinner on the outside deck over looking the beach. Also, loved the hot tub! Kate and her husband were so nice and accommodating, thank you!
Review 76:Rooms a little small. Slick stainless floor of shower.
Review 77:friendly owner, clean, quiet family neighborhood. location in reference to the ocean and town.Comfortable beds, equipped kitchen. Use of the lawn area and bar/bbq area. boogie boards. breakfast on the patio area, nice table and chairs. we are 4 mature adults
Review 78:Nothing.
Review 79:The location of this comfortable light, well equipped apartment was wonderful. We had a lovely view of the sea and slept to the sound of the waves.You went across the garden straight onto the beautiful sandy beach which you could walk along to the town or little ferry. We highly recommend it.
Review 80:All good!
Review 81:Lovely quiet resort, with the beach on your door step. A wonderful spotto relax and recharge! While we are a mature couple I can see that itwould be a great spot for families with all the extras provided...spa,kayaks, games, beach towels, trampoline.
Review 82:matress had a hard join in the middle that my wife didn't like.
Review 83:the beachfront rooms were superb, spa down by the ocean was sublime. Under renovation when we stayed and still excellent
Review 84:Nothing of any consequence!
Review 85:Friendly welcome. Fabulous view of the ocean. Generous size unit. Woollen blankets for use, if wanted. Lots of SKY channels. Kitchen utensils more than adequate.
Review 86:The floor wasn't vaccumed every day while we had our 4 day stay.
Review 87:The view and relaxation of the place, especially the spa pool being near the beach,
Review 88:Exceptional accommodation for a great price in a superb location. Room (more of studio apartment with kitchen and spare room) was well appointed and equipped with everything you might possibly need. Great hosts who took a personal interest in our trip and comfort and who clearly have an eye for detail. The place was extremely clean and well maintained and the options available for enjoying the location (kayaks, BBQ, garden, spa, beach towels etc) as well as onsite laundry and stacks of information about the local area lend themselves to all sorts of breaks, both long and short and for families and couples/friends. Perfect location with views of and access right on to the beach. If in Whitianga or Mercury Bay we cannot recommend this enough.
Review 89:sitting on the bed to watch the television.
Review 90:matching cutlery also setting out of utensils, oil at the bbq, being welcomed,the views are awesome, all the outside facilities were great, loved the water at the door for feet, that was an awesome thought.
Review 91:The location was great, right to the beach, close to the famous beaches and shops, all the people there was so nice to us,even the cat ezze came to say hi in our room, but she only came because we want to, very treined and cleaned animal,I felt like home, full kitchen and barbecue machine and area fantastic, faced to the ocean, I will ce back for sure.
Review 92:very limited storage space for clothes etc, so just kept things in suitcase in the main.
Review 93:location was stunning, right on the beach with a fabulous view. apartment gorgeous, well equipped.clean and very comfortable. owners paul and kate kindly allowed my daughter's mini dachshund puppy to come into the garden which made things a lot easier
Review 94:Would have been nice for us to have more time there to enjoy all the outdoor facilities - shame our timing didn't allow it.
Review 95:Kate was an excellent host and we had everything we could want for. After 10 days in a campervan, the hotel was a great way to unwind. The kitchen was excellent for preparing meals and the room was an excellent size.
Review 96:Suberb location on beach, very helpful owners, free loan of boogie boards buckets and spadesj
