Overlooking Hokianga Harbour at Omapere, The Sands Hotel Hokianga is a pretty 4-star hotel offering spacious accommodation in a lovely location.

That view is worth every penny and having the bar and restaurant on site is great. The rooms were tidy and clean albeit a little dated however I know Pip & Shane have only just gotten the Sands back so I look to see what they have in store. The staff were absolutely lovely and very helpful and that view Ataahua (beautiful).
Offering studios with a view of Hokianga Harbour, Opononi Hotel is a 15-minute drive from ‘Tane Mahuta’, the giant Kauri tree. It offers a restaurant, free parking on site and free Wi-Fi access.

It's a handy base to visit other attractions such as the giant kauri and the Koutu Boulders. We were there on a Saturday so the Markey was open. There are harbour cruises and kayaking available and trips to the sand dunes for tobogganing.

I should have booked further on the road.
I should have booked further on the road. This motel is too old and dated and far too cramped among other adjacent rooms for comfort. At $240 /night it was shockingly overpriced. The bathroom was so tiney, you could barely turn around, also the old toilet. The shower had a plastic curtain! ( circa 1970). The place was clean but really too old to be operating espeially at this price. The owner or the operator was pilote and pleasant ( Felicity and Sasha) but really, we were not impressed, in fact VERY disappointed. Cutlery in the drawers was toally unmatched1 Like a scout camp.

Location was great but unfortunately the room was dirty and the pool was closed due to health and safety. The staff were friendly and accommodated as much as they could. It was difficult for them because they could see how dirty things were and they tried their best. It needs an upgrade. It use to be such a beautiful place to stay at.

We did not stay in Opononi but had breakfast at the Thai Landing which was excellent. We booked the Manea footprints of Kupe cultural experience which was informative and professionally presented. Would recommend.

Have stayed here a number of times over the past 8 years. Since the change of ownership you can really see the decline in service and appearance.
Villas cost more now than they ever have yet there are broken toilet roll holders, broken TVs, horrible wifi issues, not enough staff, rooms not being serviced and a kitchen that caught on fire.
This place is in need of some serious work and adjustments. Sad to see such a historical place in the Hokianga go down like this.
Incredible facilities. Hotel-style bathroom (amazing after being used to hostel bathrooms!), and lovely kitchen and common area with TV, books etc. Quiet location. Owners were lovely and the right amount of being involved without intruding on my stay
Spacious family unit with a private deck in a motel right on the beachfront set in lovely gardens. Opononi is a delightful spot on the Hokianga harbour. Kitchen was well equipped. Comfy bed and good shower. Friendly and welcoming staff.
