We stayed at the Surf Lodge for three nights and did the surf lessons. Awesome location; every day we walked to the harbour and the shops for coffee. We really enjoyed Mangawhai.
★★★★★
Stayed here over the Christmas break and met so many cool people. The room was super comfy with Netflix and good wifi. I also rented a board and got out surfing. Probably should have got a lesson!
★★★★★
Amazing good vibe! Clean and tidy, a private cozy room and a super comfy lounge, within walking distance of the estuary and Mangawhai Heads. Grateful for an awesome week.
