Although I'm not usually a fan of B&B's, Jeanette was an excellent hostess. The property is very clean and comfortable and has a beautiful view and excellent breakfast. She provided us with a lot of information for things to do and places to see along our travels. It's within walking distance to shops and restaurants as well. I would definitely stay there again.

Very comfortable and scenic apartment

Jeanette was a wonderful hostess. The apartment was extremely well- equipped ( with even a larger refrigerator) and well-laid out, with a wrap-around verandah with lovely views looking into town and out to sea.

Beautiful place with great Customer service

This is a beautiful place to stay with stunning views across the bay if you book a balcony room. Jeanette was excellent and very helpful when our flight was considerably delayed so we didn't arrive until very late. The breakfasts were lovely with plenty of choice. A very nice old colonial style building and the room had tea and coffee making facilities and a fridge. All in all I'd highly recommend staying here.

Stay at Mangawhai Lodge

It was a very nice stay in the Lodge. Our manager was Jenette was helpful and kind and the room was immaculate. The view from our room was beautiful and morning breakfast was just right to start the day. Apart from the road works that was happening at the time of our stay it was recommended a good stay. Loved that the Lodge was close to a good walk to the beach and to shopping facilities.

If you have the chance to stay at the Mangawhai Lodge, don't hesitate to book. We enjoyed every aspect of our recent two day stay with Jeannette serving as an excellent host. Our room looked out at the ocean and the beach was a short walk away. Restaurants are also close by with an impressive range of choices for a small village. Our only mistake was not booking at least another night.
