6/10 Good

It’s nice that unit had a spa bath but there were no hand rails to assist getting in & out. The shower was over the tub too which was just too difficult to climb into & nothing to hold onto. Probably wouldn’t stay here again for that reason.

3-night stay
It is a very short walk to the beach and you can enjoy a pleasant stroll along the smooth sand. Located north of the main Orewa shopping area it is still an easy walk to the restaurants. We were upstairs and had glimpses of the sea and the gently breaking waves. We would stay there again.

Our room was on the 2nd floor and there is no elevator so it’s kind of hassle to carry up all our bags Other that everything else is fine and we like it

Room was big and very comfortable, however somme items in the room looking very "tired" and ready for replacement. Minimal contact with staff, they did not interact with me or appear friendly at all.
