Mangawhai Lodge, hotel in Waipu

Offering free WiFi and free parking, Mangawhai Lodge is located at Mangawhai Heads, halfway between Auckland Airport and the Bay of Islands.

Very comfortable room with a lovely balcony and a gorgeous view. The common room, with its beautiful furnishings, useful information and wrap-around verandah, was spectacular. Breakfast with that view was a delight. Jeannette was lovely, a real pleasure to sit and talk with. Having retired from her nursing work now, after 27 years running The Lodge, she is looking forward to a well-deserved rest, and has decided to put the place on the market, hopefully to be sold to someone who will continue the tradition as a going concern.

    Great place to step away from the hustle and bustle of city life and reconnect with nature a bit. Good food at the waipu cove pub, if a little pricey (the food is quite gourmet and the drink options were many)

    Waipu is a gorgeous beach settlement.

    Waipu is a gorgeous beach settlement. There are good facilities available e.g essential shops, cafes, the restaurant bar down at the cove is a great spot and the food and service was great even though they were extremely busy

    A quite Town for a night or two night stay for a short weekend. Kids friendly pizza store and the waipu cave not too far but would recommend to have gumboots and Torch when visit with young kids. Waipu fall is a eazy 10 mis return track but the parking space is limited.

    New Years day markets & night Ceilidh (Scottish dance).

    New Years day markets & night Ceilidh (Scottish dance). Busy rural town. Lots happening. Great art gallery in the old firestation. Nice cafes. Shops all open on the weekend. Close to Whangarei & Langs/Waipu Cove etc. Waipu has it's own museum - worth a look. Free parking in the town. Seems to be very dog friendly.

    Loved the choice of beaches Waipu Cove, Lang’s and Mangawhai. Waipu Cove didn’t have much choice for eateries and the pub filled to capacity so I couldn’t eat there and this wasn’t very good considering it was only 6pm!

    What's not to like, the location is great with a general store / takeaway at the end of the drive and a café just about 100 metres down the road. The 1 bedroom (cosy) unit we stayed in had a nice little outdoor patio / garden to sit in although we were next to the road which, being holiday season, was rather busy. The units were nice and clean too. Right on the lifeguard patrolled beach and just a few minutes from Waipu

    Lisa & Anthony are lovely hosts! Their Waipu Cove home is beautiful and our room & bathroom were spacious and comfortable. Lots of windows so wonderful light & views of their property. Breakfast was delightful and conversation with fellow guests was enjoyable. Love the black sheep, beautiful young cows and walking on their property. Gorgeous beaches & beach walks nearby.

    Spacious, comfortable room with a seating area and views out over the countryside to the sea. Hosts were very friendly and hospitable. Excellent continental breakfast included with homemade pastries and great coffee. Short drive to nearby Waipu Cove and a good eatery for dinner. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area.

    The most idyllic place for our first few days in New Zealand. Wonderful hosts Lisa and Antony, a spotlessly clean, spacious, modern room and so many homemade treats for breakfast. This is the perfect place to stay if visiting the Waipu area, we would 100% stay here again and wholeheartedly recommend it to any other travellers.

    Absolutely adored the eclectic decor. The mid century furniture pieces, the art prints and knick knacks. The garden was stunning and provided a green canopy of calm and privacy. It was super close to Waipu and a great base for our surf comps.

    The location is right by the beach. The cafe opposite (Cove Cafe) is very nice for a cocktail and pizza. The walkway to the pancake rocks was literally 250m away.
