Location location location! Best location ever! Property is a bit dated bit clean and warm and brilliantly located on a stunning beach only 30 minutes from Whangārei if that.

Stunning scenery!! My children and I fell in love with the sounds of crashing waves while we drifted off to sleep. Out of the way place. Perfect. Easy to check in and easy to check out. Cheers

View was beautiful and relaxing. Ross and Shelley were so nice and friendly. Although there are no stores nearby, they do offer the necessities at the office. It was great having a full kitchen. We would definitely recommend staying at The Sands.

Petit motel modeste mais agréable, sur une longue plage de sable blanc, bordée d'arbres pohutukawa... Hébergement un peu ancien mais propre et bien équipé. Les bungalows sont un peu proches les uns des autres, d'où un manque d'intimité pas trop gênant pour une nuit mais sans doute davantage pour un séjour plus long... possibilité de barbecue sur la pelouse en bord de mer. Belle promenade à faire sur la longue plage déserte et joli point de vue au soleil couchant, du haut du petit promontoire rocheux la surplombant.

Beautify waterfront spot, mature pohutukawa shade in front lawn, golden sands beach, no surf but beautiful for swimming. Motel facilities simple, bathroom dated but everything super clean and tidy. Friendly management . 8mins to grocery store and restaurants at Tutukaka.

I can't thank you enough for giving us such an amazing experience. The units were spotless, loads of blankets, pillows and towels. We had not been together for over 5 years and this is just where we needed to be. Used the BBQ, swam, walked the beach and easy access to the Marina at Tutakaka and the dairy. What a lovely couple running the Sands Motel. My eldest daughter flew out yesterday and my second daughter went back to Auckland. We now know where my husband and I can come for a break. We will be back. Carole

My partner and I were very pleased with this little motel. The staff were friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. The Unit was spotless and warm. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will happily stay there again sometime in the future.
