Amazing service, amazing facilities. Winnie is awesome, really customer focused and takes the time to acknowledge you. We had to cut our stay short due to a death in the family and Winnie out of the kindness of her heart offered us a credit for the remainder of our stay to be used another time. We’ll definitely be back during holiday season, thank you Winnie. The Pupuo family from Room 19

Lovely, clean and welcoming”

Averill Court Motel is a lovely place to stay and an easy, level walk past the beach to town and close to a convenience store and the Alfresco restaurant, which does delicious breakfasts! We had a front, upstairs unit, which got a bit of road noise, but overall that wasn't too much of an issue. The Studio Unit itself was very clean and had all the amenities you need for a short stay. Housekeeping were thorough each day, the bed was very comfortable and the shower had good pressure. It was great to see the refillable soaps in the bathroom, however there were no labels on the ones in the shower which left us a little confused as to which was soap and which was hair shampoo/conditioner. We didn't use the swimming pool on the premises but it certainly looked lovely. My only bugbear was that the WiFi signal in our unit was really poor and kept dropping out. That said, that was a minor inconvenience during a lovely relaxing stay in Paihia. Many thanks to Winnie and her team for a great job

Clean, location and cheap

I got the studio 3 night special. Room was spacious, clean, comfortable and great value for money. Serviced daily. Free car park. Within walking distance to Paihia town center and ferry port. Wifi didn't have great reception but can't complain as it came free and was enough to check emails, google for information and book tours etc. If you want to watch a movie there is sky TV. I would definitely return to Averill Court and highly recommend for those who wants a comfortable place to stay.

Slow kitchen stove, but very comfortable environment”

We are a group of 3 adults. When compared with other backpacker hostels like the nearby YHA and BASE (Tiki Lodge), Averill Court Motel has the best value for money in terms of room comfort, a private parking space, and a spa & swimming pool (although quite small). However, the stove in the self-contained kitchen is not fire-based, so it takes quite long to heat the pans.

Averill court motell was an OK place to stay at time while in Paihia. Our ren-suite rooms could sleep a family of 6, but we used 5 beds. Parking is just outside the door and they also have a pool and a jackussi (that we did not mangage to turn on). 5 minutes to restaurants and the beach, 10 minutes to the pier.

We had a lovely stay at the Averill Court. It was easy to find and after checking in we walked downtown for some fantastic gelato. Saw a couple stingrays in the harbor right off the deck with a beer in hand. Took the ferry over to Roberton Island to have dinner at the oldest pub in NZ, which was a real treat. Great service there (which wasn't always the case on our 2 weeks in the country). Beautiful sunset views.

Perhaps the colour (blue) of the sheets didnt turn out well in the picture. Anyway, the room was very spacious, clean, and even came with cooking utensils and stoves. 5 min walk away from the beach.
