Awa Motel

A quiet location only minutes walk from Whakatāne’s boutique shopping and restaurants, Awa Motel is a 39-room motel that has rooms to suit any traveller.

Enjoy the spaciousness of a two-bedroom deluxe apartment, simplicity of a studio, or the luxury of a Californian king in one of our modern stand-alone micro-village cabins. Guests can wake up to a hearty cooked breakfast delivered to their room (with the exception of the Bungalow) or enjoy the atmosphere of on-site Café Awa – a favourite amongst locals.

All units have free Wi-Fi access and Sky TV.
