Short week day stay
We have stayed at the Hotel before and this time we were lucky enough to have one of the end units which looks directly out to the harbour. There was a continental breakfast which was okay there could have been a bit more food left out. It's always nice to stay here the area is amazing.

The Opononi Hotel is situated in a most beautiful position on the harbour.Our one night stay was lovely . The check in staff were very accommodating and handled the situation great as our booking had not been sent to them . Lucky for us they had vacancies. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.

There is a feeling that you are stepping back in time, which matches the environment. It’s a very nice place to stay. But our bedroom was a little too small. However, the shower was roomy modern and very pleasant to use.

The staff were what made our stay special. Friendly, welcoming & nothing was too much trouble. Appreciated their willingness to go the extra mile during an exceptionally busy period.
Also like the old school vibe in the hotel although that comes at the expense of more modern conveniences. But I’m old enough not to let that bother me 😅

Cute room - quite small.
Room was clean, and chattels in good condition - cute balcony I worked on in the evening, looking out at the sea. It was pretty small - which is fine for just one, but if you had big luggage or if you were a big person, you might find it a bit poky. Pub would probably be a little noisy if there on a busy night.... had to wait for a wee while before someone was available to check me in (coming across from the bar), but when she arrived, check in was easy and very friendly.

Nice location. The room was very hot with no aircon but it was hit when we were there. Great view from the room balcony. While it's not 5 star, it was ok

We took friends on a far north holiday and stayed one night at the Opononi Resort. Check in was very friendly, room was in excellent condition,very very tidy. The bonus was the food next door and that does not mention the views which were superb...our friends looked directly onto beautiful sand dunes across the water...really nice.
