Napier sits within reach of Taupo, Rotorua and Tauranga, and the island's road network connects it to Auckland, Wellington, Hamilton and New Plymouth.
Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture, and both turn up on menus around the region. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, so travellers should plan around the reversed calendar. The motel's position in Taradale keeps it within the wider road network that links Napier with the other towns listed for this island.
