"Amazing place to stay. Easy check in & check out, accommodating & everything was as it should be! Even free sky sports etc!"

Quality Hotel Oceans Tutukaka

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived late at night and called ahead as checkin is only to 8pm. They left us easy instructions to get our room key. Our room was a lot bigger than we anticipated and very clean. We were impressed with the quality and easy checkout the next morning. Tutukaka, the town itself, is very sleepy and it was a bit tough to find an early breakfast, but very beautiful and serene."
