Reviewed Dec 27, 2025Ohuka Place Homestay is a traditional B&B where the hosts Sue & Harvey make you a wonderful, cooked breakfast. They are very friendly and helpful hosts. The B&B wing is slightly separate to the main part of the house, so you still feel like you have your own quiet space. They fly the flag of the current guests which is a nice touch. Our room & ensuite was large and comfortable.
Pillows, 1 was too low 2 was too high. Maybe 2 of different heights would help.

The location is peaceful, up above Whitianga but with close access to the town and the beaches. Above all we appreciated visiting with the hosts, who are so friendly and welcoming, while having breakfast, which was plentiful and delicious. We would return again when we can.

It was not a negative for me, but the location would not suit those who want to be in the middle of the action. It's a fair way out of town with no public transport, so you need a car. But you wouldn't have the tranquility or the great view in most other spots.
