The staff at this hotel were excellent. When we checked in quite late the checkin staff were lovely and helpful. We booked for a second night however our room type was not available so were offered an 1140am checkout as the second nights room would not be ready until later in the day. We received a phone ca next morning saying we could stay in our room for another Night and moving was not required. Touched like this make a stay so very enjoyable and hassle free. Check out staff excellent also. Highly recommend this hour if staying in Dunedin.

Underground parking was particularly useful as I had two cycles on a rack on the car. I would not have liked to park on the road where theft or damage to the cycles was possible.

The good: Really nice spacious room. The bed was super comfortable. Great views of the beach from the balcony. The not so good: Bathroom has mold in the shower and the shower mixer was leaking and had poor water pressure.

The hotel has an outstanding location. You are looking directly at the ocean. We watched surfers from our room. The room was comfortable and clean. The bed was very comfortable. There are several nice restaurants in the area. The hotel itself looks a little dated which felt ok for the beachy vibe. Parking was difficult on the weekend.

No Designated Parking
They have no designated hotel parking. You have to take your chances with rest of the public. The car park below the hotel is public as well. So on a sunny day almost impossible to park. Found interaction with staff very poor. Customer service training needed.

Roberta

Location was outstanding but I feel like the hotel and villages were overrated. Rooms were very small and layout was awkward -our room was on main level that overlooked the main parking lot. No privacy and had to keep curtains closed. Village rooms are a lot further from the main hotel and restaurants than pictured. I feel like the pics were outstanding and the accommodations were fair. Very disappointing, but weather was great so we didn't have to stay in room but to sleep (expensive slumber).

On its last legs. In dire need of a revamp, our bathroom was unpleasant, grouting coming loose, mould, just dirty all over really. Someone needs to intervene and spend some money to save this property on the ocean!
