“Friendly local service. Food was all so good and fresh.portions were huge too Recommended this place if you haven't been already.”

“We really loved our stay at the Atrium Apartments. Our apartment had lovely sea views to wake up to every day. Everything was clean and tidy. The apartment was fully self-contained with fridge, washing machine, and dryer. We loved being in walking distance to the Mount, beach, spa pools, shops, and restaurants.”

“What a cool spot. Felt like going for a swim and found this place on Google. We really enjoyed our day out here.”

“I don't know whether it was just my lucky day but I walked straight in and up to the counter at VTNZ. I had lost my Driver's Licence. Within approx 5 minutes flat I had a temporary licence issued, a photograph for a new licence taken and a vision test done. I walked out a happy woman.”

The Barrio Brothers Express runs with a classic fish‑and‑chips menu and an easy pace. Fillets arrive fresh and the fry keeps clean. The team keeps things friendly and organised. Meals reach the pass promptly.

“Excellent. Because there were a few prescriptions before me, there was a small wait; however this would be expected in most pharmacies. Friendly staff and half price prescription fees compared to other pharmacies. Would go again with hesitation.”

At Su's Kitchen, the menu stays simple, bistro‑style with tidy execution. The room sits relaxed with an easy buzz. Service stays present without fuss. Plates offer plenty without weighing things down.

“I was very impressed with City Suites accommodation when I stayed there recently. A nice host, who dealt patiently with my lack of technology knowledge. My room was clean, quiet and comfortable, with a lovely bathroom, and a kitchenette with all the necessary equipment. The huge bed was very welcoming, and as soon as my head hit the pillows, I slept like a log until woken by alarm clock in the morning. A big plus was the locked basement carpark, and a lift to help get my luggage to my room on first floor. Not only that, there were also luggage trolleys like at airports, which I've never come across before at accommodation, and both the trolley and lift were a great relief for me as senior lady. Also I felt very safe when I had to go to my car at 11pm for something that I'd forgotten. Another bonus was that it was just a short walk to the Cafe on the Strand for a delicious breakfast and nice view of the sea. I recommend you try them too. All in all I'd love to stay at City Suites again, and highly recommend it to others. It's well deserving of the five stars I'm giving it. Thank you city suites for a very pleasant stay!”

Oi Sushi in Katikati is a casual takeaway serving cabinet sushi and simple Japanese staples. It’s set up for quick lunches with packs and individual pieces to go.

“Great place to have events - jazz festival is on on Easter Monday. Urban Park in centre of township with small grassed area.”

“The food was delicious and the restuarant owner and chef made is feel welcome and made sure we were well loomed after. The best Mexican dishes I've ever had.”

“A very convenient location opposite Gate Pa shopping center in Tauranga, the staff was really helpful, and friendly. They even went to the extent of accommodating my son for no extra cost even though his booking wasn't there, as he turned up last minute to attend the Jazz festival. The place is a bit old, but the location is just so convenient. Would definitely stay there again..”

“Stayed in unit 7 and it had a great sea view. The rooms itself are quite basic, though clean and well serviced. It is nothing flash but very good for the price and good enough for a 2 night stay. We left the 3rd day as we had enough of all Tauranga could offer us and we had to return to Auckland. Would return for an overnight next time. Alan is a great host. Tip: Get a room with a sea view.”

“Been going to them for a couple years now, to start with i will say the chips were a little overcooked 90% of the time but over this year they have been cooked perfectly (to me atleast). Its unfortunate that they had to up the price but its understandable considering this economy at the moment, still happily geting my food though dispite that. The people there iv found have been really nice aswell, ill usually go next door to pick up something to drink but usually after that it dosnt take that long for the food to be ready. Sometimes ill actually go once or twice a week since its a easy lunch or dinner option and is only just a 5 minute walk for me.”

“In the 25 years I've lived in New Zealand, I've never experienced hotel service like yesterday. When I requested a room change because the room was a little uncomfortable, the hotel manager was happy to accommodate me. They replaced our room and also split the single bad and adjusted it to the twin bed. All the staff were friendly, the staff serving breakfast in the restaurant were very friendly, and the food was delicious. Also, when I slept at the hotel last night, it was so comfortable and quiet. Thank you to all the hotel staff.”

“Absolutely love this place. Would eat there every day if I could. They make the best chicken kebabs ever. Especially the young lady. Always very clean. Thanks heaps to the wonderful staff, and best of luck for the future.”
