Less than 4 weeks ago Kelly and I took over the Midway Motel. Coming from marketing and advertising backgrounds, the first thing we had to do is change the name! It's the only Motel on Waiheke, so its the biggest and the smallest, and oldest and the newest, but the one thing we do want to make it is the friendliest.
We have big and small changes planned, so join us on our journey as we develop and grow Waiheke Island Motel, in the centre of paradise.
We loved the hotel and the reception staff were fantastic and very pleasant and helpful, she sorted out all our problems in a very sympathetic and professional manner, THANKYOU so much, we loved our stay and you made the difference, THANKYOU xx

will never forget the exceptional service and kindness we received, from the moment we stepped on to the property. Thank you so much for going out of your way to make sure we had a great time, when we didn't know anything about the island whatsoever. Also, our little Santa bag we got greeted with at our door on Christmas morning. Again, thank you so much, Cristina and Brad!!! I'd give this place a bajillion stars if I could!!! Cheers to Midway!!!!���

Absolutely amazing!!!! Loved this place, very comfortable and cosy but the main thing was the service was amazing. The owner was so friendly, such a lovely man as we had a five month old baby and we were to check out at 10 however our boat wasn’t leaving until 430 so he let us stay longer. When we left we were waiting to go on the ferry and he even drove down to us in a storm by the way to give our IPad as we had left Iit there. We will defiantly go back and highly recommend this place :)

Very good location. Less than 5min walk to bus stop. Situated between Oneroa and Onetangi so anywhere you want to go isnt far. Hosts were lovely. Room was just right. Had everything we needed at a great price. Was clean. Would stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this kiwiana motel. Comfy beds, great size rooms, friendly atmosphere and central to everywhere on the island. The family hosts were amazing and create a real kiwi atmosphere with BBQ, spa, pool and their hospitality was superb. We even got to use the motels beetle convertible to check out the island. Will definitely be back.

We stayed here for 2x nights in October. Really enjoyed our stay, rooms were clean and cozy and the Owner was very friendly and helpful, let us check in early and gave us some good advice.
Stayed: October 2017
Friendly staff, they had no problem talking to us about the different places to visit and were helpful when we needed help. The room was clean and surprisingly spacious (had more beds than we expected) and the view was fantastic from the lounge within the room. Would definitely recommend this place if you're staying on Waiheke Island.
Stayed: May 2017, traveled with family

My Partner and I went to Waiheke Island for a day trip. Enjoyed our day so much that we decided to stay a night. We saw a little yellow VW convertible advertising the motel and decided to try it out. Stayed in room 10. So clean, friendly staff. Countdown supermarket, RSA, close by. Lovely valley and native bush and birds...
