"So close to everything. Orewa a great destination "

"Beautiful established gardens leading in to front main entrance. Welcoming and friendly reception, thank you Maureen & Bronwyn. We were in unit 6 was clean and tidy with fresh linen sheets towels. Couple of things: When you open the front door straight ahead on wall you see black marks. Have stayed many times here but there were no outside table & chairs to sit on while enjoying outside view having a spa. Pool area stunning garden pots with beautiful tropical plants shrubs & flowers. Very inviting and lovely. There are broken and loose tiles at the top deep end of pool that need immediate repair for the safety of our children and elderly. While my children were swimming for hours until dark we also noticed for safety of others wouldn’t be bad idea to put more lighting opposite laundry room to the left the step and ramp need to be made visible at night also walking up the ramp and around the whole perimeter of the pool make it brighter and easier to see. Last but not least the whole outside exterior needs a good clean water blasted from top to bottom the entire property fences decks annual spring clean thanks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Parakai Lodge hope you don’t mind our feedback look forward to our next visit thank you. "

"This is a great Motel about1 hour out of Auckland this was or first time stay here the Motel may look dated but don’t let this put you off the unit we stayed in was a Studio unit the room was very spacious and the hole unit was very clean it had separate toilet of the bathroom which in itself was of a good size the shower was big enough to have a party in the shower itself had great pressure and the floor area had stones on the concrete floor and it wasn’t slippery the bed was comfortable the kitchen area had the basics and a microwave thanks to Bridget who gave us a great welcome as stated the Motel may look out dated but the owner is doing it up so stop on in and see Bridget "
