Top Pauanui Hotel Reviews

Waterfront Apartments Whitianga

Waterfront Apartments Whitianga

10/10 Excellent
"The view from Apartment #8 was amazing! The location was great as well, being directly across from the beach and walkway, and a short stroll into the center of town. Even being so close to the street, the living area remained quiet due to the enclosed balcony. Chris and Gina are fantastic hosts, and are improving/maintaining this property to a high standard. Highly recommended!"
