Helpful with check-in and questions. Breakfast was very good. No AC only a fan. Opened door to balcony to blow in cooler air. Got bitten by bugs. No screens on door or windows to keep bugs out.

Good and quiet location. The facility itself is aging and out of date, our room is downstairs and smells old and dampness, the bathroom don’t have space to put your Toiletrie. The small Air con is not making cool airs, guess it’s just a heater looks like air con, they do have a free standing fan provided, but just not enough for a summer night, we downstairs can’t open windows for safety reasons at night make this worse. We paid 240 for a night during the busy new year eve period, not worth it. The staff is friendly though.

The Settler’s Discovery Motel was a fantastic stay. The room was great, wonderful service with friendly staff, and great food. It was also a short walk to the Whangārei waterfront, and all the fabulous restaurants and cafes. I highly recommend this motel, and would stay again in a heartbeat.
