Tairua Shores Motel, hotel in Tairua

Tairua Shores Motel enjoys a harborside location close to the Tairua Wharf, and it takes 2 minutes to drive to the town center or a 10-minute beach walk overlooking Mt Paku and Tairua Harbor.

The bed was comfortable and the view out onto the water from the deck on unit 1 was lovely

The Boat House Studio, hotel in Tairua

Just 1.1 miles from Pauanui Beach and 1.2 miles from Tairua Ocean Beach, The Boat House Studio features accommodations in Tairua with a garden.

My husband and I loved The Boat House! What a setting in the beautiful little town of Tairua. This is a large spacious guest house, with a balcony with an excellent ocean view. Tastefully, and very nicely furnished with everything we needed. Our only complaint is that we only planned one night to stay in Tairua. We would’ve loved to spend the week there! Our host Bev was so nice, and very accommodating.

Paku Lodge Resort, hotel in Tairua

Located on The Esplanade overlooking Tairua Harbor, Paku Lodge Resort offers self-contained accommodations with a private balcony and harbor views.

The location was absolutely beautiful and the room was clean and spacious! We wish we stayed here longer because we ran out of time to use the kayaks but hopefully we can come again soon for a longer visit!! The staff were also friendly and approachable- had a great experience overall!

    Lovely laid-back and friendly little town in fantastic location and with great amenities. It’s got everything you need - shops, choice of places to eat and drink, lovely estuary with beaches for swimming when tide is in, and a great ocean surfing beach. Got a great little art gallery well worth a visit, and very helpful tourist info next door to library. Boat trips, including to Cathedral Cove direct from town - and lots of great beaches and other places visit just a short drive away. We loved Sailors Grave beach just 10 minutes drive.

    Loved the relaxed atmosphere.

    Loved the relaxed atmosphere. My father in law(1902-1997) used to say that Tairua never knew the Depression was on, meaning life went on as usual, plenty of seafood to eat etc. it had the same feel today.

    Tairua is in a beautiful setting within easy reach of Hot water Beach, Hahei beach, Cathedral Cove and Cook’s beach which is a lovely safe bathing beach. Don’t miss Shakespeare Cliff for spectacular views over Cook’s beach and Whitianga. Take the little 5 minute passenger ferry from Ferry Landing over to Whitianga for a nice lunch spot.

    We loved the walks, lookouts, friendly locals, spectacular views, helpful people at the Tourist Office and great weather. The speedboat out to the Aldermen Islands with Coromandel Adventure Tours was a highlight.

    Tairua is a great gateway town to the Coromandel but also perfect to stay just in Tairua, plenty to do: surfing, walking (beach & bush), climb Mt Paku, wonder around the estuary, go paddleboarding or kayaking.... or just relax. It's a lovely low key place....makes you relax

    Tairua was a friendly coastal town with a small population, yet had all the things a traveller requires. Things such as a swimming beach, boat ramps, fishing opportunities . A number of fast food outlets(Thai take away, local bakery , hotel, wine shop and a well stocked Four Square store. ) Thoroughly enjoyed the vibe of this small town

    Amazing location, amazing view. Ruth was super lovely and friendly, very accommodating and helpful. Offered to drive us into town since there is no taxi or uber service in Tairua. Even made breakfast for us both mornings. Was around and helpful but we felt free to be ourselves and do our own thing.

    Fantail B&B is amazing with the best views ever. The accommodation was better than expected and Klaas and Annetta are great hosts. A real gem in Tairua with the best location in walking distance to the beach and the summit. Everything you need is there and more. You will not be disappointed.

    Big deck, comfortable rooms, lots of amenities available to guests and well laid out. Great to be able to do laundry free of charge as we are on a month long holiday travelling about NZ.
