Pacific Rendezvous Resort

Easter Break - We were lucky to be able to stay and very much enjoy the Pacific Rendezvous in Tutukaka. Here you will find Ian and Sue who manage the resort , they are truly amazing . the 2 bedroom unit we had was just wonderful , clean , comfy , cosy and well equipt. The view was really out of this world beautiful. The grounds have a great salt water pool -spa , laundry , games room and shop and reception. Walks are a plenty and help is always on hand. Beaches a walk away , shopping a short r drive away. Please go , the Pacific Rendezvous and Tutukaka is a must to visit ! Thanks again Ian and Sue for a wonderful holiday. We will be back

Stayed at the Pacific Rendezvous for two nights in February – specifically due to the ratings and vicinity of Dive Tutukaka. Ian helped me at check-in and was extremely friendly and helpful! He provided a local map and details on the area, hikes, restaurants, etc. There is a small store connected to the reception desk where you can purchase snacks, beverages, etc. You can also rent a beach towel if needed. The place is very cozy and clean. I stayed in a studio, which had ocean views from the back patio on the main level and the bedroom upstairs. It’s similar to a duplex and unit is individually owned and managed by Ian and Susan. The units are self-accommodating. The unit does have wifi although it continuously cut in and out for me. The unit I stayed in had AC on the main level but not upstairs, which was exceptionally hot. Location-wise – it’s pretty secluded and VERY relaxing and quiet. In that aspect, I’d give it 5 stars. On the other end of the spectrum, it is not walkable if you want to be within walking distance of a shops/stores, etc. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe. There are a few ocean hikes/areas that are private to Pacific Rendezvous – Harbour Beach and Ocean Beach. I already planned to hike Whale Bay and Matapouri Bay, which were a short drive away otherwise I would have explored these two beaches. There is an onsite pool, playground area, tennis court, game room, laundry room, etc. The only reason I gave it 4 stars (would have given it 4.5 if that was an option) was the AC. There was a fan in the closet, but it was rusty/dusty so did not use it. That said, I really enjoyed my time here and would definitely stay again. The views and ocean sounds are the absolute best if you are looking for some quiet and relaxation.

What a wonderful place to land! This view is worth the trip to New Zealand. We had a 260 degree view of the bay and Poor Knights Islands -- of sunrise -- it was really an incredible location. Our two bedroom unit was perfect, no television, kitchen had the basics. I will say that the lighting -- like everywhere in New Zealand -- tends toward operating room bright or pitch dark. But it's a minor complaint for a lovely, lovely location and a comfortable, clean unit with an eye-popping view.

I really don't want people to know about this place because I would rather it remain a secret. But in all fairness to PRRM and the owners/managers, Ian and Sue, their place deserves serious consideration and praise. If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable, clean, efficiently run resort, look no further when you visit this part of New Zealand. This is not Vegas, this is not glitz and glamour, this is pure and simple stunning beauty. Hawaii has nice beaches, but they are crowded with tourists. The Tutukaka area beaches are gorgeous and amazing and NOT crowded!! We spent 10 days here in paradise and hope to return as soon as possible, too bad its such a long way from Colorado!! :( Check their website pictures to see this little piece of serenity and peace.

Incredible property with amazing views and two private beaches to walk to from the property. Pool and two hot tubs were great, tennis courts were fun to use with complimentary racquets and balls. Hosts were super friendly and helpful.

This place was an absolute gem! Beautiful view, perfect accommodations, super friendly check-in. Will definitely be back.

Beautiful location! The grounds are immaculate and the views are stunning. Excellent view of Poor Knights Island. Situated between two beaches which are a short walk down to access. Quick drive to variety of restaurants and shops. Small pantry shop run by hotel if you’re in need of basic items or morning coffee. Check in was quick and easy.

This is a beautiful place in an outstanding setting. The views are unbeatable. We had been here before and will most definitely go again.
