Thames is a quiet town with quite a few coffee shops and a good variety of stores to browse. The supermarket (Pack & Save) was close to where we were staying. There are several locations close to Thames that are worth a visit The Gold mine just north of town Cathedral beach and the hot water beach are worth the time to check out. A scenic drive up to Coramandel town is interesting. Just be careful on the narrow sea side road. Enjoy

Didnt know which cafe to choose, but this one had a lot of people in it, so we chose this one.Hot chocolate cafe. The big breakfast and the pancakes were delicious. Quaint, busy little township, just caught the tail end of the market. We stumbled on another cafe further up, which sold this devine louise cake & caramel wheaty slice. Yummy. I thoroughly enjoyed the Nakontong Thai restaurant for dinner too.

Shared bathroom and toilet wasn't good.
Shared bathroom and toilet wasn't good. Luckily for me there was only one other guest a female but that was awkward as we both wanted to shower at the same time. Lucky for both of us there were not 3 couples staying at the same time.

The Coastal walkway is a good walk. Old town worth a visit.
The Coastal walkway is a good walk. Old town worth a visit. Lots of good places to eat in town and some good shops and cafes. Lots of walks up the Kauaeranga river Valley in the Cormandel Forest Park.
Good base for surrounding areas, we did full circuit of Carmandel from here. Also enjoyed Gold mines tour at Waihi and walks on the Whatawheta river gorge
Excellent place to stay in Thames: great unit; 3 bedrooms, lovely living room and kitchen with all amenities needed for a longer stay. Lovely owners who stay next door. Quiet and peaceful, lots of privacy. Enough food in the cupboard to make some great breakfasts. Great shower. Spotless clean. Nice deck while not providing sea view still amazing view over the mountains and a quiet residential area. Excellent place to stay for group of friends or family to recharge from busy work or the busy city life. Would definitely stay here again
Great place to stay while exploring the coromandel. Just a short trip to Thames town and supermarket - yet not in town - lovely outlook across the water and the sunsets were stunning. A modestly price accommodation that we could make our base while doing day trips. Fresh towels each day were greatly appreciated. We stayed in the 2 story unit - which by far had the nicest outlook and deck space to sit in the shade and look out to the views.
A nice holiday park with plenty to do within the park and nearby. A nice river to swim in, some trails, games like table tennis, very friendly and helpful staff, and seemingly booked by overall good people. I ended up adding another night as I grew comfortable and really established myself into New Zealand, as this was my second spot I stayed during my trip. The kitchen was also pretty nice and well equipped.
We just spent one night at the motel to escape cyclone Gabrielle so we didn’t get to enjoy the pool or other facilities. But we appreciated the super friendly welcome by the staff and the clean and comfortable room. The location is great to explore Thames and the area. The kitchenette has everything needed to prepare breakfast or small meals. Beds were comfortable and felt fairly new.
This was our first stay in New zealand. We loved the relaxed cultural atmosphere .. Alby was a great host, very interesting and friendly.
Our breakfast was generous and everything we wanted and it was nice having it delivered the evening before to enjoy at our leisure in the morning. overall we loved the whole experience!
Our hosts Ken was very welcoming and gave great advise for our trip round the Cormandel peninsular. Good sized room, comfy bed and very clean. I even used the pool which was clean and very inviting. Outdoor patio area to sit out in. Enjoyed our visit to Thames and the Cormandel peninsular.
Lovely little motel with a great location right next to the sea and with a nice courtyard with bbq. The place was super clean and spacious and the beds very comfortable. We had a great time and would definitely stay there again.
My husband and I have stayed in a few motels lately. This was the most expensive but very comfortable the bed we had was the most comfortable we have ever slept in. We also loved the fact we could cook her if we wanted to.
The elderly couple at the front desk were amazing. They really made our stay a lot of fun. Also the motel had a friendly cat who wanted to hang out so I rate this place really high.
Great location overlooking Thames and a lovely rural outlook including a field containing their sheep. Very generous provisions for breakfast and a spacious accommodation.
Breakfast was really good and plentiful. The welcome drink was an unexpected bonus and the host was very informative about the history of the town and the hotel.
