Search hotels in Papamoa

Papamoa is probably best known for its white sand beach, which stretches for several kilometres. It is very accessible, as there are walkways between houses at frequent intervals allowing pedestrian acces from the two streets running parallel to the beach. Papamoa has a modern mall and several shopping centres, offering a variety of dining experiences and convenience foods. A highway system allows access to Mt Maunganui and Tauranga, about a half hour's drive away. The only downside for me is the traffic navigation - the highway system is very busy and clogs up quickly during peak traffic times, and some of the surrounding roads have some pretty unfriendly roundabouts with speed humps and traffic lights added, sensory overload for a driver unfamiliar with the area.

Papamoa is a very laid back and peaceful place to visit. Everything you need is right on the doorstep and really great to visit a beach that isn't crowded. Everyone you meet while walking along the beach are friendly (including the dogs) and it's a lovely place to relax and be at one with nature.

We had a lovely stay over looking the beach. Laundry facilities are always a bonus - $2 coins needed. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Close to cafes, takeaways and shopping. Lovely coffee cart nearby.

Didn't go to papamoa no one told me about a the pacific hotel that I booked. I don't spend my wiz payment for that I got a baby and nw I got no money. Us took mostly all my money out of my win payment.

Papamoa is ideally situated close to Mt Maunganui yet far away enough to retain a sense of peace. It's also within an hour's drive of beautiful Ohope Beach &, to the north, Waihi Beach, both of which are well worth visiting (especially Ohope Beach & Whaktane).

Papamoa is a lovely beach resort town. There's plenty of beach space with a surf club to patrol the beach. There are plenty of food outlets to cater for all needs. The walkways are a great asset to encourage people outdoors for their chosen exercise routine.
