Whakatu Hotellit

”Fabulous service, small intimate hotel and lovely food. ”

”Absolutely beautiful. Staff excellent, restaurant world-class, vineyards and grounds meticulously presented. We stayed in a 2-bed cabin & even the design of the cabin, complementary bottle of Craggy Range wine, and daily generous stocking of breakfast supplies were a great experience. Loved Craggy Range! ”

”Amazing property, dining and staff. Variety of activities from relaxing to adventurous and inbetween. Hope to return someday!”

”Very accommodating staff, helpful when we needed to check in late. Bach vibes right next to the beach. ”

”We had a great stay at Bluebell Lodge.”

”Room excellent, reception experience needs attention. ”

”Fully refurbished room within a newly refurbished hotel. Great central location with parking (local council) available within a 3 minute walk. Bars, shops and restaurants nearby and a short 2 minute walk to promenade. Room has a kitchenette which is very handy. The member of staff ‘Charlie’ was extremely helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Can highly recommend this hotel and will definitely return.”

”Good clean accommodation,had everything we needed and a super comfy bed. Just one thing that annoyed us us the outside light on all night,so the 2nd night we tucked a towel into binds to block out light which worked. Close to shops and venue where we had family 21st birthday party.”

”Clean, convenience, lots of outlets. Easy to check in and out.”

”The hotel was exceptionally neat and clean, making the entire stay very comfortable and relaxing. Its location is excellent—conveniently situated close to restaurants and the beach. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to assist with a smile, adding a personal touch to the experience. Overall, a wonderful place to stay that I would happily recommend.”

”Very easy, efficient check in, spotlessly clean cabin, great location. Wonderful ”

”The rooms at Porters are beautifully kept, spacious and with ample amenities. The location is excellent and our suite was superb for our family. Staff at Porters are always a highlight - going out of their way to help and make your stay as enjoyable as possible. The surroundjng area is loaded with dining options and is a short drive to surrounding cellar doors and scenic spots that Hawke's Bay has to offer. We will be back for our third stay in April 2026!”
