There are better places to visit that are much less difficult to travel to than Gisborne, we went because we had never been before so it was good to see the place but wouldn’t go to the trouble to go back.
Roadworks from Napier to Gisborne were many with many stoppages. Long slow winding road. Gisborne to Whakatane however was a very pleasant very scenic drive starting off with Gisborne's horticulture then farmland then through a native forested river gorge. Gisborne's main retail strip looks great and is well laid out, the palm trees set it off so well on a sunny day. The famous Eastwoodhill Arboretum was a bit of a let down, it was a big reason we finally decided to add Gisborne to our trip however it didn’t live up to the online pictures and information we saw of it. Basically it’s just hilly farmland heavily planted out sporadically with various trees and riddled with many tracks colour coded but good luck trying to completely follow a particular track as some markers weren’t there at various intersections. It’s nice for a bit of a hilly tree walk but there is nothing particularly organised or grand about the plantings that looks anything like you see of tree plantings in various Botanical Gardens.

My first time visit to gisborne.
My first time visit to gisborne. Town centre is not big, but it was interesting. I enjoyed the botanical gardens and small museum during my visit. My visit was the middle of winter, but still enjoyable.

I found the Cook Landing Reserve to be underwhelming, It was disappointing in that there was not much about Captain Cook at the site, just gourds.
The Gisborne Museum was worth a visit.
The beaches would have been lovely if not for cyclone Hale.

Sadly economic conditions and the requirements for earthquake improvements has seen a lot of buildings in the CBD close up shops a sad barren appearance. No street performers no music in the air the city council needs to do more to bring the city back to life.
High prices on everything makes it even harder for the locals visitors think twice before buying.
A shaddow of what it used to be. 😢
Property has one of the most beautiful views in Gisborne.
Very Relaxing and peaceful environment .
This house is in a stunning location, with mountains and sea views. The furniture is beautiful, and it's just a short 15-minute drive from the town centre. It's a peaceful and relaxing place to stay, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty and comfort. Whether you're looking to unwind or explore the surrounding area, this house provides an ideal retreat.
Lovely host. Super friendly and helpful. Able to borrow their spare car at an extra fee which made the trip easier. Nice little spread of breakfast items available complimentary. Lovely porch and good off street parking space outside the house. Free wifi. Streaming sites available on TV (Netflix and Disney plus). Able to do airport pick up and drop offs. Great Gisborne recommendations provided. Overall a great stay!
I really enjoyed my stay at this location...........within minutes Tarquin, Lincoln and Crystal (the management team) made me feel like family, They did a great job of tucking away my bike, showing me around the facility, spending time with me teaching me about kitchen use, open area use and enjoyable things to do around Gisborne.........we will remain lifelong friends after this visit.
I loved everything about Tudor park chalet. we ended up having mates join us in the chalet and there was so much space for us. everything in the place was all so clean the chalet exceeded our expectations we loved our stay in gisborne thanks to Art & Kim. perfect hosts. lovely place and great exceptional service!! definitely staying there again on our next stay in gisborne.
The room was exceptionally clean. It felt new and modern. We could park right outside our door and the rooms are numbered clearly. I was extremely happy with everything that was supplied in the room and the spa bath was an extra luxury that was the point of difference when choosing this hotel
Have always booked at Captain Cook out of any motor lodge in Gisborne this place has been the go to for me and all my family that I have brought along on my journey to Gisborne and by far is the best place to stay the staff are so lovely here 💛💚💛 and is close to town and the beach ⛱️
Really enjoyed our stay. Quiet despite being busy and packed. The facilities were awesome, clean and tidy with so much space to unwind. Hubby enjoyed the shower so much, definitely something we needed after a long few days,will definitely be back when in Gisborne
The manager Scott was super friendly when we arrived, the room was clean, it had all the amenities we needed for our one night stay and the kids loved the spa bath. It was also a short drive to the city and Gisborne airport. ☺️
It’s so peace and quiet room service was just great hotel owners were friendly . They pretty much let you do what you want to do without been in your face ..
Will definitely book this hotel again once we in Gisborne again
We loved the location, so close to the beach. The Sauna and spa were a complete luxury and at such a low additional cost. Staff had great communication; self-check in instructions prior to arrival and helpful on site.
Easy to find on arrival in Gisborne, and very well furnished and equipped. Many little 'extras' such as a choice of cereals, chocolates, and a very unobtrusive but highly appreciated unit service during the stay.
This is a very nice waterfront hotel, kitchette was included and the place was modern and the staff are friendly and accomading, there is a pool and a lot of people fish from the close by river channel
