    Fine Views and Chill Vibes

    Had a blast here! The views from our balcony were next level. We spent mornings sipping coffee while watching the ocean come alive. Ken and Lyn were super friendly. The picnic area was awesome for dinner outside. Just wish the Wi-Fi was a bit stronger, but overall an lovely stay!

    My honest journey to loving this

    The fine views from the room made every sunrise a magical moment, and the friendly hosts added a personal touch to our stay.

    The internet connection was weak, making it a challenge to stay connected .

    The scenery and closeness to shops.

    The rain on the first day there. The single top step to the upper back rooms.

    The views are absolutely outstanding, walking distance to lovely restaurants, bars and the Russel ferry. The management and service was freindly and helpful and the accomodation was modern and meticulously kept.

    The only thing I could fault is the road noise, but this is far outweighed by the fantastic views and of cause no fault of the motel

    sliced tropical fruits
    serene ocean views
    limited parking
    weak internet

    The Breakwater Motel was a good find! The mouthwatering sliced tropical fruits were a breakfast highlight, and the nearby dining gems like Swordfish Bar & Bistro (just 0.3 km away) left my taste buds dancing. The serene ocean views added magic to our mornings.

    While the car parking was limited by a brick wall, we managed just fine, so it wasn't a dealbreaker. A bit more attention to internet connectivity would bring this experience to the next level.

    Would recommend it as we greatly enjoyed this hotel. The venue is clean with free parking. There is plenty of nice food for breakfast. Plus, the location is great, minutes from Paihia Beach.
