Papamoa Beach motel with free on-site laundry and private courtyards
Private Courtyard Units with Kitchenettes
Each unit at Energy Motor Lodge Papamoa has a private courtyard with outdoor seating, a setting for relaxing after a day at the beach. The rooms include a kitchenette equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, electric kettle, and toaster, alongside a dining area. Air conditioning, a TV, and a sofa are provided in every room, with some units offering a separate living space.
Free On-Site Laundry and Parking
Guests have access to a free on-site laundry with a washing machine and dryer, a service rarely found at this price point. Free private parking is available directly in front of each unit, eliminating the need to search for street parking. The property also maintains a garden area for guest use.
Walk to Papamoa Beach and Shops
The motel is located a 14-minute walk from Papamoa Beach, one of the region's longest stretches of sand. Pak'nSave and the Papamoa Plaza are within a 2-minute walk, providing grocery and retail options. Tauranga Airport is 12 km from the property, and the location offers easy access to the motorway for exploring the Bay of Plenty.
Family-Friendly Accommodations
The two-bedroom apartments comfortably fit up to five adults, with a sofa bed in the living area for additional guests. Electric blankets are fitted on the beds, providing warmth during cooler nights. The rooms are well sound-insulated from the main road, and the private courtyard offers a safe outdoor space for children.
Guest Conveniences
Each unit has a large bathroom with a shower that delivers strong water pressure, a detail noted by many guests. Plentiful power points are located throughout the room, placed conveniently near the beds and dining table. Contactless check-in via a lockbox allows late arrivals without waiting at the reception.

“Arriving late, I found the location incredibly convenient for a quick dinner and appreciated the quiet surroundings. The shower pressure was notably good, and the comfortable bed made for a restful night. It's a practical choice for a straightforward stay.”
