Your hosts, Monica and Tim, welcome you to the Continental Motel and hope we can delight you with great value and service. We are conveniently nestled halfway between Regent and Kensington giving easy access to the city centre, our popular Town Basin, sports grounds, superb restaurants, supermarkets and medical centres. We are easy to find – just look for the flags!
The Continental has recently been refurbished and the units are spacious, clean, fresh and modern, each with full kitchen facilities. We have a purpose-built accessibility unit giving easy wheelchair access and other appropriate facilities for a comfortable stay.
The heated salt-water pool (in summer) and spa and garden allow you to relax and have fun, and the FREE WiFi will keep you connected.
It is easy to spend time exploring the Whangarei area. We have hundreds of beautiful beaches, some of the best diving in the world, tranquil native bush walks and caves to discover. We are only an hour's drive from the beautiful Bay of Islands. Make Whangarei your base to see the North.
