Mauao Studio - Mount Maunganui

I always choose this place for my stay and have no regrets. The staff helped me print tickets on my first visit. It suits me perfectly with Wi-Fi, off-site car park, a flat-screen TV, and an electric kettle. Coming back for a holiday.

The superior queen room is airy and has a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a microwave oven, and a fridge...

Conveniently located away from the busy street. Lots of good food choices just a short stroll from here. 🍔

I got great value for my money at the studio, with a thoughtfully designed room and attractive decor. The location was perfect for me, being just a short drive to shops and restaurants and a quick walk to the beach. The staff were friendly and cute, making my stay more fun.

Breakfast delights could be improved with more options.

The beds were comfortable and the rooms were quaint and charming.

Best aspects were the comfortable bed, quality toiletries and linen, fully equipped kitchenette, and the kind and helpful hosts. The hotel is located in a quiet residential area, but it's still close to the beach and easy to get around with the free borrowed bikes.

All was perfect.

The studio was well, appointed with a fully, equipped kitchenette and quality linens. There were complementary towels for the beach and toiletries for the shower. the location was fantastic, with easy access to the city center and nearby beaches. the studio was tastefully decorated and had a cozy atmosphere, making it the perfect home away from home.

The only issue we encountered was that there was not enough sugar provided for our tea. this was a minor inconvenience and did not detract from our overall experience.

I recently stayed at a cozy and well-appointed studio for 4 nights. The kitchenette had all the necessary amenities for light meals, and the bed was fairly new and comfortable. The location was perfect, with easy access to the local beach, restaurants, mall, and supermarkets. I loved that I could walk or cycle instead of relying on a car. The studio itself was beautifully decorated and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I would definitely stay again and recommend it to friends.

100% Recommend this hotel.

The check-in and check-out process was very easy and hassle-free. The privacy offered by the facility was amazing. We loved the fact that it was located just a few minutes away from the town center and other key locations. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even better.

The bed was very uncomfortable and urgently needs to be replaced. The parking situation was a bit frustrating, as we were initially advised that we could park outside the studio but it turned out not to be the case on our last night.

The location of the property was excellent, with plenty of shops, restaurants and attractions nearby. The room was modern, clean and had comfortable bedding. The bathroom was well equipped with high quality towels and toiletries. The hosts were welcoming and friendly, and happy to assist with any requests.

The parking situation was a bit of a hassle, with guests having to park on the street on occasion.

I had a fantastic stay at Mauao Studio. The check-in and check-out process was easy, and the owners, Paul and Suzanne, were very friendly. The studio itself was beautifully designed and decorated, with a homely yet stylish atmosphere. The location was perfect, just a short drive from shops and restaurants, and a quick walk to the beach. I felt warm, comfortable, and had everything I needed, including a great selection of tea and coffee. I highly recommend this studio for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

If I had to mention a drawback, it would be that there was no basket provided for used towels and dishcloths. It would have been more convenient to have a designated place to put them instead of having them on the floor until I left.

The hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming, making our romantic escape even more special. The modern studio had a beautiful kitchenette and bathroom, giving us all the privacy we needed. The location was perfect, tucked away in a quiet street, away from noisy traffic. We were able to easily explore the nearby attractions such as the beach and hot spring pools. It was a great advantage to have our own little space with a lovely view.

The parking situation was a bit difficult, with a narrow driveway and limited size of the parking area. We had a smaller SUV and it was a tight fit, so larger vehicles may struggle.

Friendly hosts, comfortable bed, private bathroom, kitchen facilities, lovely view.

Nothing I didn't like to be fair.
