Comfortable room with good bed and lovely views. Hosts (Michael) was very attentive and even put on a free New year's party on the grounds with a live band and fireworks against the backdrop of the waterfalls.

Not that I was on holiday to use the WiFi or the TV, but there were a few quiet times that it would have been nice to relax and watch Netflix or use my phone, unfortunately the bandwidth was sporadic (likely based on use of other guests), so if possible, increasing the bandwidth of the internet or ensuring the wifi is working in every room would be great.

From being greeted on arrival and throughout our stay we were treated in a polite and professional manner and this also follow the service, the knowledge and advise given by the host of the surrounding areas was knowledgeable and very helpful, the facilities although evidence of upgrading met our expectations, with the location having a range of shops within 5 minutes drive and ideal for us to visit local sites and make day trips to other destinations.

Fabulous view. Room had small kitchen and an outdoor bbq. Reception guy was so friendly and helpful. Option to use kayaks. Small swimming pool. Beach to river and view of falls. Really comfortable bed. Although breakfast was not included we were left tea/ coffee/ milk/ juice and cereal. Supermarket just down the road. Restaurants nearby if needed.

The kitchen cupboard smelled , though was perfectly clean

From the moment we arrived , we were welcomed with a friendly smile. Cam offered to help carry luggage to our room. Room was cleaned to a very high standard. Everything was there that we required. Even extras like orange juice, cereal , chips and Oreo's. Very quiet, even thou main road runs behind units. Didn't hear any noise including neighbouring units. Had the most beautiful view from our balcony overlooking the falls and river. Not far to town and attractions. Hosts Cam and Mike were exceptionally helpful and made our stay stressless. I would highly recommend staying here. We will certainly be back. Thank you both.

Nothing to state here.

Amazing location right at the waterfall. Relaxing. Super friendly owners and staff. Good kitchen and refrigerator for actually being able to shop and cook meals. Great value for a family.

No negatives. The place is a bit dated, but for the location and price, we didn’t notice or mind at all. You can tell the owners are doing the best with what they’ve got. It’s super clean and lots of space for a family of four.

falls motel & campground is a great place to stay especially for families looking for affordible accomodation. It has its own unique charm & its view of the waterfall is an awesome sight to wake up to. Our host michael has such a warm & welcoming personality & my family cannot wait to stay here again .

Not having the rest of my family there . They wold have loved it especially the camping ground below the motel with an even more spectacular view & local history about the falls

This was our 2nd time here and my wife noticed straight away from the outside the modernisation that’s been done and how nice it looked we had the same room and the new decor inside was lovely with a few extra added additions, Michael as always was an excellent host. Definitely coming again

Was all perfect

The hosts are fantastic, the rooms are older but great value for money with a family and wanting 2 rooms and cooking factilities. Free use of the kayaks to go up the river, the pool & BBQ area were great. Also very close to walk to pub for meal or brewery short walk across the road and can do the Haruru to Waitangi walkway. Great place to stay, we plan on staying again.

The falls motel , has stunning views. Michael who owns it was very helpful and has good knowledge of local history. Rooms are spacious, clean and have everything you would need ,and all at a very reasonable price. On our last day we had problems with our car starting .Micheal could not be more helpful and got us back up n running .I would definitely stay here again and would recommend .you won't be disappointed.

There is nothing not to like about this place .

Great motel for families. There's a fantastic pool, and free use of the kayaks is really good. The units are a little outdated, but Michael and Campbell are working hard to update them all. The views from your room out over the river and the waterfall are beautiful. The location is perfect for Paihia and Waitangi.
