Second time have stayed at Shoreline and will come and stay again when next in Napier. Had stayed in another beachfront Motel prior to Shoreline which was more expensive however Shoreline had a bigger outdoor balcony which you could comfortably sit on and chill out without feeling cramped in. Also the receptionist was super friendly.

This was a great stay that exceeded all expectation. Room was much bigger than expected with an amazing view of the ocean! All amenities you could need, rooms were cleaned and replenished daily. It’s such a great spot for convenience, close to restaurants, bars, corner shops & bike hire. And if you want to dine in the kitchenette is set up with the standard things you would need plus the option of indoor or outdoor dining. Such a great stay at an incredible price. Thank you for having us!
