Reef Lodge Motel

My boyfriend and I stayed last minute at the Reef lodge motel in early January. Leslie and her team were very accommodating and answered every and all questions we needed with kindness, despite the last minute booking and arrival. The reef lodge motel has amazing facilities for families or even couples wanting to run away for the weekend. A spa pool, kayaks, a trampoline, a rope swing, and best of all, the diamond of a view a couple meters from the door step. The rooms are newly refurbished and are stocked with all you need and more. We spent the day by the beach enjoying the clear, warm water, and exploring the reef. We spent the afternoon by watching panoramic views of the sunset. It is rare to find a beautiful white sand beach with a view of the west coast sunset! We took advantage of this and went snorkelling during sunset then jumped in the spa to watch the rest, such an amazing experience. The Reef lodge motel highlights the core beauty of Northland. We had an amazing stay at the Reef lodge motel, would recommend it to anyone!

The one great feature this place has is the location, the beach is stunning, the water is crystal clear and you could spend hours basking in its beauty. The facilities are tidy and thats about where it stops. Customer service does not seem to be the male managers forte, Leslie is pleasant enough however her husband is HORRIBLE, he is extremely aggressive and unwelcoming, he should not be in the hospitality industry at all and certainly no where near the facilities if this establishment is to have returning customers (if they return). We are a family of four and were only supplied 3 towels, we were also not given any fresh replacement towels on our 3 day stay. If Leslies husband was not aggressive towards guests and he was not on the property at all then perhaps this would be a lovely little place to stay, we certainly will not be returning.

If I could leave a review for 0 I would, was thinking of staying here, drove down and in and as we turned around got confronted by an aggressive Karen that said we cant drive onto private property we apologised saying we thought it was a motel and she advised it was, we got confused as she kept saying its hers and private, if this is how they treat potential guest I cant imagine how bad they are when they already have your money, hostel and aggressive owner, give it a skip
