Pros:

Nice view, comfortable and clean, close to intersection but not too noisy, walls are thin, could hear the neighbours but was no problem, a coffee sachet for the plunger each morning would be good and maybe coffee sachets could be upgraded to a better brand. Would stay again.

Beautiful spot
Pros:

Just got back from a fantastic stay at Baileys at the beach motel. If I could give this place 6 stars I would! Was such a stunning room with a beautiful view over the ocean. This unit was one on the upper floor-it was immaculately clean, modern and had everything we needed for a weekend away. Lovely little touches like toiletries and robes were a nice touch. Warm welcome on arrival from the owner-thank you for a great stay.

Great place to stay
Pros:

We had an upstairs room. With amazing views out to the ocean. Was a great place to stay.
There was double glazing so all sound was blocked out.
The room was exceptionally clean, comfortable and well kitted out. Had everything that we could need. The hosts were amazing and so welcoming. We will be back.

Pros:

The property is conveniently located close tomahor attractions on the east coast fof the Coromandel and close to the beach.
The rate per night however is excessive for what you pay and what you get.
Early morning road noise is not how you want to be woken up in the early hours of the morning.
