Located opposite the picturesque Whakatane Wharf, we are just a short walk from the town centre and many great restaurants.
Take a stroll along the river or enjoy one of the local bushwalks to view the spectacular scenery across the bay.
Our quiet location means not only a great night’s sleep but you may even be lucky enough to hear the distinctive call of the kiwi birds which live in the nearby bush.
