Satisfactory stay.
Pros:

The lodge is situated in a quiet area, surrounded by native fauna. We enjoyed listening to the sounds of the different birds and the view from the kitchen BBQ area. The kitchen was well-equipped. The room was adequate to meet our needs. Great that they had a pool.

Cons:

No air conditioner in the room. Restless nights due to the mugginess. Mosquitoes are a big problem, although they did have a warning notice in the booklet.
I don't mind that pets are welcome, but I would recommend keeping dogs on a leash.

It was pretty much perfect for what we wanted - an overnight stop close to Paihia.
Pros:

We did not have breakfast

Cons:

It was very hot throughout the night and I would have left the bathroom window open but for the fact it could have been used to access the rooms from outside. I might be nearly 76, but I remember from teenage years how easy windows were to enter home when my Dad locked the doors at midnight!

Pros:

There was a message sent when the room was ready and the place was actually good as what we expected. The kids loved the pool right away. Really clean room however a little outdated but manageable. We love our stay, just the kitchen white wares needs an update.

Cons:

Bugs at night and kitchen needs to be renovated or at least replace the microwave and stroves.

Motel review
Pros:

I enjoyed the swimming pool and the room and bed was comfortable for my liking and enjoyed my stay at Pinelodge.

Cons:

The motel is a bit on the old side of things but overall it was comfortable and I don't really have anything bad to say about it.
