5/5 Excellent

Great stay at the Quality Hotel Oceans in Tutukaka

"The team was very accommodating for a late check in. The stay was great and the room was spacious, though we paid a little extra for the larger room. The place was conveniently located next to the marina where we took the Perfect Day tour."
