Very nice motel close to the alpine crossing finished car Park . Very confortable room and bed with fully equiped kitchen . Quiet place also . Close to shop like New World . I really recommand this place .

It has been 5+ years since we stayed here, and we still find it a comfortable spot. It isn't the flashest motel, but is well laid out and in summer with front and back doors open it can be pleasantly cool without needing the air conditioning (and it does get VERY hot in Turangi mid-summer). Clean and comfortable with all the items we needed in the kitchen. The WiFi is okay, but we did experience some glitches in the evenings. It is a short walk to the river or in to Turangi for food and takeaways. We find it a good spot and will stay there again if stopping in Turangi.

The place was spacious and clean . Good place for stopovers from Wellington towards Rotorua

This place advertises itself as a luxury resort and Google says it’s a five star hotel. That is definitely not the case. This place is more of a rustic lake camp. Our place smelled like mildew and all of the furniture and fixtures were old, tired, and grungy. There are no screens on the windows and quite a few mosquitoes so you can’t enjoy the fresh air with the windows open. There was a kitchen but limited dishes, utinsils, and supplies for having a meal in. No napkins, no dish brush or sponge. No way to clean up other than putting dishes in the dishwasher. There are ashtrays on the deck tables. Luckily the people around us didn’t smoke or we would have been miserable. Their website mentions a number of things that aren’t accurate. Says it’s lakefront but it’s actually way above the lake and there’s no way to actually get down to the lake from the resort. They also advertise that you can book fly fishing and their chef will cook it for you. My husband booked the fly fishing and normally does catch and release only but I thought fresh fish would be awesome for dinner so he brought back a huge trout. When I asked the woman at the bar to cook it she stared at me like I was crazy and said we don’t do that. Then they tried to tell us we could bake it in the oven in our room. We didn’t even have a baking dish much less foil, butter, or anything else to put on the eventually, after telling them their website says they will do this and we didn’t want to hav killed the fish for nothing, they cooked it for us but nothing special. Not with a meal in the restaurant. They just sent us back to our room with it in foil. Don’t get me wrong, the views are amazing and if you go in expecting more of a lake cabin, it’s fine, but it’s definitely not luxurious. They do weddings and I don’t know how you could possibly feel clean and beautiful dressed up for a wedding staying here.
