Bk's Pohutukawa Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were spotlessly, clean, reception was very welcoming, there was everything in the room that you needed, the cleaning staff were absolutely lovely, the queen size bed was extremely comfortable, Also a great location to restaurants down at the basin. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and definitely recommend it"
