“What stands out is the thermal pool; a rare treat among Tauranga motels, and I imagine families find the outdoor grass area especially appealing. The self-catering kitchens strike me as ideal for longer stays; a definite advantage, plus its location in a quieter part of town near local attractions adds to its charm.
All considered, 18th Avenue Thermal Motel feels like a solid choice for those seeking relaxation with a touch of local exploration.”
