Thames Coast, Waikato hotel rooms at the Independent

"Love view of the ocean"

"Good bed and excellent black out curtains. Great sleep and great facilities "

"A beautiful location for a laid back vacation. Close enough to the village centre to walk. Lots of places nearby to explore, Cathedral Cove, Hot Water Beach, Cook's Beach. We were there in the off-season so we understandand, but getting dinner each night was a bit of a challenge with only one restaurant (which was off-site) open."

"Gantastic little villa, had a very relaxed stay. "

"It was amazing, I found everything to an excellent standard. I have stayed at a lot of motels and this motel is right up there. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. I would stay there again if I come back to Thames. You should give it a try."

"Hosts are just wonderful people!"

"The host was absolutely lovely. Great unit for a couple nights stay."

"Impressed with all the facilities and loved our stay at Top 10 Holiday Park Hot Water Beach. The location made it, I loved the beach and the opportunity to see Glow Worms at night. "

"Great communication, friendly check in and check out. Lovely, clean, spacious apartment. Handy to town and the beach."
