Pros:

The proximity to the beach made for a nice morning and evening stroll. The patio looking out to an open area made for a private and quiet stay. Did not hear the hey 6 traffic even though close. Cosy and comfortable little apartment.

Cons:

Cannot think of anything

Home away from home
Pros:

Made you feel welcome as soon as you walked in the door. Family run business that made us feel like family as well. Room was clean & comfortable, staff all helpful. Guide in room was great, detailing all attractions in the area to see. We ate at the attached restaurant & the servings were huge & delicious. Would definitely stay again.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

It was modern and clean

Cons:

The room was very tight. Bedroom and bathroom especially

The meal in the restaurant was disappointing. Chops that were too tough to cut even with a steak knife and served swimming in what tasted like an instant gravy. Vegetables and salad bar under the expected standard. Sad as the reviews gave a different impression. The guests at the table next to us rated their meal as terrible. 🫩

the Paroa Hotel is a comfortable place to stay. Staff and Owner efficient and friendly Recommended
Pros:

The owner checked us in he was friendly and efficient, showed us to our unit, did a good run through of the facility and the area. the unit was comfortable and good bathroom, however the second room was a tight fit with nowhere to out suitcase or to hang clothes.
We were there for a farewell of a departed family member, and we were given a room just off the restaurant for our own use. very good menu, staff friendly and good info regarding the menu. no one in our group of 20 plus had a complaint regarding their meal. Overall, we enjoyed the experience. I would recommend the Paroa hotel.

Cons:

the second room in our unit was very small for two adults .
