Location is a little out of town but only about a short walk away. It is in a sunny spot, but there is some road noise as it's near a junction although most of the time this isn't an issue. It's about a 5 min or less walk to the beach and about a 15 min walk/short drive to the Treaty Grounds or similar in opposite direction to town. Owners were very friendly and knowledgeable about places to visit in the area. Very spacious room Great shower Loads of kitchen equipment if needed

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

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.
