Thoroughly enjoyable experience. Located very close to our weekend functions. Hosts were very welcoming, friendly and accommodated our special request, and that of neighbouring unit. Highly recommend, and would stay again should need accommodation in Waipukurau.

We found it an easy motel to access, with the main shopping center a block away.. Lotto, supermarkets and petrol all available easily.
For a unit that sleeps five, the only downside was there wasnt five of everything, (cups etc), and four coffee sachets was just never going to be enough. Overall, a comfortable bed, plenty of sleep, and we would stay again.

What a Jewell
On our New Zealand trip we stayed at some very high class Motels and would rate Tuki Tuki as the best. The reason being the cleanliness, the friendliness, The homeliness and we all need that after travelling for a while. My wife and I would call it a Jewell in our New Zealand exploration, well done. Tuki Tuki.

Fabulous, friendly hard working owners who gave us a warm welcome. Explained where local dinning etc could be found and accommodated our special needs. A spotless unit with lots of space. Serviced daily which was an unexpected extra. Thank you TukiTuki Motel. See you next time.
