Coromandel Seaview Motel is situated between the mountains and the sea of the Coromandel Peninsula. It is close to renowned saltwater fishing and a number of outdoor activities.

All of the spacious, refurbished rooms have a balcony and a private BBQ free parking on site. Gail and Kim were so welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was great and coffee amazing. My wife said it was the best she had ever had. For me, in the top five. Studio two was just the right size and the view breathe taking. And I am not exaggerating. Really glad we found this place and will be back.
