Hobbiton Movie Set is 6.6 mi (10.6 km) from central Matamata, why not stop by during your stay. If you'd also like to explore some of the parks in Matamata, head to Founders Park and Maungatautari Ecological Island.
When the beach is calling your name, you might want to head down to Cathedral Cove, located 0.6 mi (0.9 km) from central Hahei. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Hahei Beach located nearby.
Whether you want to collect beach glass or watch the sunset, Whangamata Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 1.8 mi (2.8 km) from central Whangamata. Enjoy the sunset by the shore at Surf beach.
Hoping to do some gaming? Why not spend the evening at SkyCity Hamilton in Hamilton Central and see how lucky you are. Why not take a stroll along the riverfront and watch the sunset while you're here?
Our check-in felt a bit awkward—we were told many (many) times how the property and views are “quite stunning” as we were shown around.
Everything else was very nice. Room had a great view, and we really liked the breakfast (and breakfast staff). Parking on the hill was tricky!

Everything about this motel is first-class. Our room was spacious, spotless, comfortable and loaded with amenities. The management was very welcoming and helpful in many ways. Highly recommended.

The property seemed very new. Clean, bright, comfortable with nice extras— a free pass to the fitness center just a few yards away, free laundry services. The staff was exceptionally helpful and friendly. When we ordered a birthday breakfast for the room, the staff cam up singing ‘Happy Birthday’ with a piece of cake , candles and ice Cream. Ludi at the front desk was especially helpful. The food at the restaurant/room service was very very good.
