My booking was made last minute as a result of trip cancellations. It was easy as my wife made the booking online from the US. I was greeted by Zara in reception and she was very friendly and helped me obtain the map of the Wakapuaki cemetery where I was hoping to find my oldest brother who died when he was 11 months old. I was successful! The room was clean and had the necessary condiments etc. I would highly recommend the Beachcomber especially because of the staff but also the proximity to the beach. It is an excellent location with many eating houses, cafes, and pubs within a short distance of the hotel.

Very comfortable 1-bedroom suite including bed, pillows and recliner seats. Ideal location for Tahunanui Beach and for driving to Nelson, Mapua and Richmond. Loved the pool. Great you don’t get automatic servicing - just opt in for any day or get any supplies from cleaning staff.

Room was very small and we faced a highway that often was busy with log trucks. Thankfully the traffic on the highway did slow down after 9:15 p.m.. smugglers restaurant behind the hotel it's a great place to go for dinner.
