Not to firm. Not to soft Unit was dated and needs abit of a refresh. cubboard doors in the kitchen were difficult to open and close to get crockery out of.
- Michelle (9/5): -
- pareake (8/5): Family friendly property - We stayed here before because my boys absolutely love the warm pool, it was hot and lovely during our last visit. This time it wasn’t quite as hot, but still really nice on a cold night.
We also requested an early check-in and were able to do so for an extra fee, which we were happy to pay since we wanted to arrive quite early. Overall, we enjoyed our stay
- Elisabeth (8/5): -

- cb5948ca39337232c2d71eb42f72dba1 (7/5): My stay - Location to town, friendly staff Booked an accessable unit. The kitchenette is not the best for someone in wheelchair. Cupboard is too high. TV is very small and difficult to watch. Lighting in unit not the best
- da72f96c525173fbbb31fa14889e2e04 (9/5): -
- Christa (8/5): -
- Carol (10/5): - Very friendly greeting staff, good location, nice hotel pool Smell of urine in the toilet area
- Sherrie (8/5): - Location Bit dated
- Grecia (8/5): Good for families, good value for money, lots of different room options. - Good location. Had a kitchen so able cook our own meals. Nice little home away from home. Rooms were clean. Room was facing a busy main road - while we were offered a bigger room, I may have changed my mind if I was aware of the traffic noise.
- Mark (8/5): Very good value for money and would gladly stay again. - Friendly staff, great location (Moturoa is super close a great cafe and other retailers). The hot pool was great and the kids enjoyed the outdoor pool. Road works out front were a bit noisy but that would only be a temporary issue until they are completed.
- Paul (7/5): - Location, friendly staff Dated inside and out, in dire need of a renovation,
Office only open from 2pm to 6pm.
- Li (3/5): - I booked this hotel a full month in advance, but the hotel never informed us that the main road right in front was under construction. Our room was allocated facing that road. For two consecutive nights, construction work started in the middle of the night, making it impossible to sleep. Before dawn, the noise from heavy traffic on the main road began again.
Our child was in town for the Optimist National Championship, and the lack of rest seriously affected their performance. If you are considering staying here, think twice before accepting a room facing the main road. Very disappointing experience.
- Bronwyn (6/5): -
- Dinesh (7/5): - Ideally located, with easy access to the city and all essential amenities. Had a comfortable stay. Taps in the kitchen need some attention and the balcony door lock is broken.
- Falkner (9/5): -
- Alok (8/5): -
- Gary (8/5): Three day stay for exploring New Plymouth - It was clean and tidy, the bedrooms were placed nicely. The shower is a bit dated but fully functional. The staff were nice and provided great service. Would definately use again. Nothing worth mentioning.
- Wayne (8/5): Suited our needs perfectly - Quick check in and room was clean and tidy. Room had everything we needed for eating and entertainment
Quite happy to return again shower was very noisy thru the piping. Did not bother us but may upset guests in other rooms
- Neilson (8/5): Great value for money - Excellent value for money Dated but it worked for us
- Kevin (8/5): -
- Rochelle (8/5): - Room was clean and comfortable with all you could need for your stay. The two pools was a huge bonus.
- Alosio (9/5): - Both the pools. Our rooms were just next door to eachother. The staff were friendly and understanding. They were just awesome! My kids, hubby and I absolutely enjoyed our stay there! Most definitely will be staying again next time 😊
Thank you Flamingo Team! Hehe 😊
- Leonard (10/5): - Everything was awesome could of stay another night
- Chris (5/5): -
- Susan (6/5): Fair price,.convenient location, very good range of kitchen equipment but dated in some respects. - Location handy but noisy traffic being in front unit on main route though that dropped away at night so slept OK. Well equipped kitchen. Spacious rooms. Very dated kitchen units, bathroom very dated with some mould on fixtures that probably can't be removed. Very odd lounge layout with TV a long way from seating and very low sofa facing table, not tv.
- Aaron (8/5): Enjoyed our stay - Love the hot pool and outside pool
- Dana (4/5): Very disappointing booking. - Location was 2.5 blocks from the costal walk. Torn, worn and mismatched furniture and facilities. Amenities looked un clean and un desireable. Musty smell and continuous loud traffic noise all night from coastal highway beside the hotel. Thin walls allowed voices to carry from adjacent room. Dark enclosed hot pool looked unhealthy to use.
- dural (7/5): Easy, clean, basic accommodation. Friendly and helpful staff - Easy to find, quite central, like two bedrooms Shower was very weak, would have liked more secure windows stays to be able to have windows open more.
- Waipuna (10/5): Awesomeness - Location Nothing
- Denise (9/5): Super fijne locatie. - Fijne kamer, lekkere bedden, goede douche, goede keuken, dagelijkse schoonmaak, wasmachine en droger tegen betaling aanwezig, leuke speeltuin en zwembad voor de kids, makkelijk parkeren en bovenal vriendelijke mensen. Alles was perfect.
- clare (8/5): Our host was very welcoming. -

- Gipsy Alysha (10/5): For a person like myself this place is easily accessible, close to town and private enough to maintain both the peace an - Its very private
- Nikki (6/5): Average, not inclined to stay again as the whole place needs an upgrade - Location Dated rooms. Bathrooms so old difficult to keep clean and explains mould in the joins.
- jenny (7/5): Basic but comfortable. - Comfortable beds, strong shower Toilet door did not shut, fan not working in the shower. Kitchen cupboard doors were a major hazard above the sink. Room needed updating.
- Callum (10/5): -
- Paula (8/5): We enjoyed our stay there, would consider staying there again. - The room was clean and had most things we needed. No sky TV
- Shannen Joshua (6/5): Good facilities for families - Loved the communal facilities.
The kids loved the pools especially because it rained most of the days we were there. The kitchen and bathroom floors were not clean unfortunately. The kids came in a bit wet and we wiped the floor and we're disappointed to see they were rather dirty .
In the pictures we saw there was a full sized fridge and freezer. We only got a bar fridge in our room which was a let down and we did a rather big supermarket shop and had to throw out a lot of food especially frozens.
- Jone (8/5): Love the staff, it was clean and spacious. Very accomodating and communication with the office was awesome! Huge thank - The availability of the pool and the 2 bedroom apartment was spacious. Just a bit outdated but still a good value for money.
- Stephen Jonathon (8/5): -
- Peter (6/5): -
- Rina (9/5): - The pool I didn't not like anything. We had a great stay
- Vicky (10/5): -

- Michelle (4/5): -
- Chris (7/5): - The staff were awesome The whole establishment is dated
- Barbara (9/5): - Kids lived the pool and playground. Two TVs in 2 rooms was a life saver!
- Catherine (9/5): Great motel value for money . - The property was spotlessly clean , the staff were very helpful and attentive. The apartment was spacious and had all the amenities to make it a comfortable stay.
It was within easy walking distance of the city centre and art gallery and museums,plus the beach walkway. Not the fault of the motel but there was some road noice .
- manush (5/5): -
- Mike (5/5): - The beds were comfy and having a stove was nice. The water tasted dirty and mouldy. The floor in the kitchen sloped down, which made it difficult in my wheelchair. The accessible shower area could use a padded shower bench. The kitchen was small and difficult to use.
- Cecily (7/5): Good - The room, it was a really good. We had enough facilities. The grounds were nice. The lack of information for eating places.
- Roughton (10/5): - Friendly staff, kids loved the pools, easy to find, parking right outside. Friendly staff on reception.
- Reed (8/5): -
- KIN PONG (8/5): - The cold and hot pools are the best and we spend a lot of time of swimming. The trampoline is not safe as no safety net.
- Natasha (3/5): Decent sized room, but desperately needs updating - Bed was comfortable Very dated, with an uncomfortable smell. Found it odd that there was no kitchen bin, despite the fact there was a full kitchen.
- Gary (8/5): - Good pool, well priced. Had upstairs unit at front. Bit noisy at times (traffic).
- Jason (10/5): -
- Kumarrs (10/5): Great place - Great location, amazing staff. Loved the comfort the place provided. The rooms and amenities exceeded our expectations greatly. We would definitely come back here for another stay or recommend it to others.
- Laura (8/5): -
- Vienna (10/5): Awesome stay! - I loved how there was a fully fenced pool for the kids but also a indoor pool that is perfect for the kids clean and comfortable, also there was a tramp and slide along with a swing! With was even more a bonus there weren’t any prickles in the grass and perfect shade under the trees by the playground! The parking that goes under the tunnels could be a bit better
- Kevin_Waho (10/5): - Thoroghly enjoyed relaxing in the heated indoor pool, after a hike along the coatal walkway. The outdoor pool was also great to just cool down after relaxing in the heated pool.
- Debbie (9/5): -
- Kylie (10/5): Clean, friendly and comfy family friendly motel - Friendly staff, family friendly, great location (there’s a dairy across the road), playground and swimming facilities, very clean, comfy beds, well equipped rooms. Sorry I forgot to let the staff know before we left but the oven in room 20 doesn’t get very hot even on the highest setting and the time on the stove kept flickering on and off while using - might need some maintenance?
- Sarah (8/5): -
- Tracy (5/5): Nice stay in New Plymouth. - Good area location, good room space Was a bit run down, very basic.
Very noisy as the room was right next to main road.
Pool and playground pretty average, even the “hot” pool was not hot and more room temperature
- Amy (9/5): - It was easy, comfortable and affordable. Sperate rooms for parents and children.
- Geoffrey (8/5): Great location and value for money with friendly staff. - Great location for the coastal walkway and lights festival which was our main reason for the visit. Parking was a little tight for larger vehicles.
- Hollie (9/5): - Perfect location, excellent facilities - shower and bedding was great. Loved the pool also. Little bit noisy over night
- Sarah (7/5): - Good basic motel, close to town. Kids loved the pools and would book again in summer for the pools.
- Rebecca (7/5): -
- Wong (8/5): - Room was clean and the space is bigger than expected with kitchen and separate toilet/shower. The place is dated but well maintained and clean. Parking is quite tight for bigger cars but not a major problem as the place is not full
- Moananui (10/5): - Service was really good. Bed was nice and comfortable. Decent one bedroom. Lots of space. Outdoor and indoor pool my son loved it. Nil
- Colin (9/5): Hassle free - Excellent Nothing
