There are LOTS of great restaurants in the city center. If you only depend on Tripadvisor or Yelp to find restaurants, you will be limited. Just go downtown and walk around and you will find heaps.

30 minute drive to Hot water Beach. We really enjoyed our dinners at Stoked bar and Grill as well as Blue Lagoon. We thought that the salmon at Stoked was the best in our 3 weeks in NZ.

Lovely small town with good dining options . . Excellent nature around
"It was a wonderful place to take a break during our trip.
Being an apartment meant we could relax without being on our bed.
Our planned rest and laundry days were wonderful.
The apartment had everything we needed."
"The place was very roomy. It had large living area with clean well apointed kitchen. It was across the street from the ocean. We could park at our door. There was a nice pool. The reception was very helpful and offered us choices of things to to and resturants to visit. We are glad we stayed there. I personally liked the harder beds as too many places have sagging matresses. "
