It was very clean and comfortable. Close to the Basin for good cafes.
All good.
Absolutely lovely place to stay. We were offered an upgrade for free, such an unexpected lovely surprise. Staff were lovely. Room was so comfortable and felt like home
Bella Vista was an excellent find! Clean, comfortable and very convenient.
The couple running the motel are lovely, so helpful and informative. The room was really nice and exceptionally clean.

Clean and modern
Limited cooking facilities- microwave only. Ok for 1 night but i stsyed for a week so i had to eat out
Great place to stay. JJ and Cindy were wonderful hosts. Very helpful. Free parking good air conditioning, free washing machine. Definitely recommend Bella Vista Whangarei.
No issues to speak of.
The property is a traditional motor inn by appearance but everything was exceptionally newly painted, clean and fresh. The bathrooms are updated with a great shower. The beds were extremely comfortable and the rooms very quiet. No traffic noise! We enjoyed a glass of wine sitting at the table and chairs outside our room entrance.
Nothing not to like!
Location was good and central to the city. JJ and Cindy are really welcoming and friendly. The unit was very clean and with air conditioning it was very comfortable.
Staff were lovely and friendly. Beds were comfortable, and the room was clean.
The property and our room were very clean and the bed very comfortable. Walking distance to town. Great location!
Firstly, I have to compliment JJ and Cindy. They are super friendly, and very helpful. Exceptional service. They themselves get a 10/10.The room and bathroom were meticulously clean.Small and compact, but a KING size bed and a kitchenette fitted very comfortable.The bed also very comfortable.The motel is very close to everything, including the town centre. And although on a busy main road, we heard NOTHING.Highly unlikely that we will ever be this way again, but we will highly recommend.
Smoking,... hey, that is our issue, but if you are smokers, you need to go to the front of the complex to smoke, and there is no cover if it is raining.
Clean rooms spacious
Bed configuration unclear on booking.com website Expected twin and double but had a double bed and a single in one room
