Exceptionally clean and well maintained studio. The King size bed was very comfortable and we had everything needed for an enjoyable three night stay. Our host, Julie, was friendly and welcoming, without being intrusive. She gave us many good recommendations and provides a laundry service, which was much appreciated on our extended trip. Pahia is a beautiful spot to spend a few days. Highly recommended.

From the moment we arrived we felt right at home. Parking right in front of the apartment, all sparkling clean and so well equipped ... everywhere ample storage space, good bedside tables on both sides of the bed, as well as easy to reach plugs, spacious bathroom with separate WC, good shower, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable bed, quiet room with view to the pool and beautiful garden. You could feel and see that the motel was planned by travelers for travelers! We hope to stay again in the future, and for more than 2 nights. We would have loved to spend more time at the motel and in the peaceful garden and pool. Next time :) Loved it!

Reception staff were nice and accommodating. I was glad to see Paul on checkout as he is retiring and has been a real asset to this motel, wish him well. The bed was huge, shared with a friend, so still room to move around and was so comfortable with nice linen

The cleansity, facilities and location of the motel were all fantastic! It's located right by the bay and in walking distance to shops, restaurants and the ferry wharf. Also, the Waitangi treaty grounds are right around the corner.

Ala Moana is a great motel, just a short stroll to the town centre. The room itself was very spacious, clean, comfortable, and the kitchenette had everything you needed if you were eating in. The bathroom was a good size. John was a lovely host and very helpful. Would definitely recommend staying at Ala Moana if visiting Paihia.
