After visiting Refining NZ Visitors Centre, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Ruakaka. Take some time to visit the spas in this relaxing area.
A one bedroom en site cabin just behind the dunes so 50m to the beach. Nice grounds with flowering trees, great murals on all the facility buildings. Good rules on noise etc.

Great location, with only a short walk to the beach. We had a room that went straight out to the pool that was convenient for the kids. It was quiet here which was nice.
The only down side was limited parking, we did have a parking space for our room but someone else parked there, although the staff did arrange for the car to be moved. There was not a lot of space to turn around a large vehicle.

Enjoyed our stay here. The accommodation is excellent and in a beautiful location. The hosts, Andrea and Mike, go out of their way to ensure your stay is comfortable and enjoyable. The cottage was super clean, modern and equipped with everything you'd need. We'd have no hesitation in recommending it.

Nice quiet area, we had a little mishap with our car (the window got smashed) and the owners of the hotel were super helpful in temporarily fixing this, the hotel staff looked after us very well whilst we had to make various phone calls. I DO NOT want to deter people from booking this hotel due to the mishap, it happens and the hotel was very friendly to us.

A really comfortable stay in this spotlessly clean (l've never seen such a shiney stainless steel sink!!) Motel.
The laundry was really handy and the room was extremely comfortable with all the amenities we needed.

We've stayed in plenty of motels, apartments and hotels in NZ this past month, most arentired or have seen better days. But this spot was clean, felt new and is easily one of our best stays. Thanks to all the team who help keep it nice and clean, you're doing an excellent job. Appreciated the airocn and Netflix too.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and the area was good plenty of shops and places to eat nearby. The lodge was just what we needed our first date in New Zealand.

Room was modern, clean and comfortable. Good location in centre of town. HINT make sure you specify parking requirements, basement car park has limited spaces and they are quite tight.

The hotel is in a great location staff all very friendly and helpful. Bar closes stupid early at 9 if it’s not busy and only found out you can order from the night porter when bar is closed half way through my stay. Food is good, chef was prepared to do my scrambled egg how I like it. I would recommend staying here.

Ideal location, easy to find, ample parking, great staff. Plenty of space in room, well equipped with drawers and hangers. Excellent breakfast with plenty of choice. What's not to love!
