Whispering Sands Beachfront Motel is situated on Waikanae Beach, just a 10-minute walk from Gisborne city centre. It offers stunning panoramic views across Poverty Bay, with Young Nick's Head and Kaiti Hill standing in the distance. Our apartment backed directly onto the grassed area that led to the beach. Our toddler could play and we could sit and relax just outside the room close to our food and drink.

Set in a private garden, Tudor Park Motel Spacious with kitchens 1 minute walk to restaurant and shopping centre and Gisborne Hospital offers self-contained accommodation with free WiFi. Located away from the main road, opposite the Gisborne hospital. Had a great stay. We were upgraded to a bedroom suite and the king bed was sooo comfy as were the twin beds in the bedroom. The bathroom was roomy and room was large with a table, chairs and sofa. The hot tub and pool were clean. We would have like to stay longer in the morning but had to drive to our tour. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
