“Beachside Bliss lives up to its name with direct, unfettered access to a fantastic beach, a true gem in Tauranga. The comfort of the rooms, particularly the beds, and the ease of arrival make it a stay I anticipate repeating. It's a place where waking up to the ocean is simply part of the experience.”
