I cannot begin to explain what a wonderful stay we had here. The place is in a privileged spot facing the beach and we were lucky enough to get one of the rooms facing the lake directly, which made us feel we had our own private beach. The owners are charming and very kind and we will never forget this place!

The rooms were spacious and clean. My family stayed in Turangi Motel with 5 groups of family friends. We occupied 7 rooms altogether and it was amazing. The place was peaceful and relaxing. The management of the motel are very accommodating and friendly too. Highly recommended!

Fantastic motel - service, cleanliness, lovely room...everything. We needed a late check in and this was not a problem - heating had been turned on in the room (thank goodness), and very helpful staff everytime we rang about our changing checkin. Just brilliant.

Beds were exceptionally comfortable. The whole unit was spotlessly clean. One of the best motels we've stayed in in recent years.
