The motel is clean and comfortable and description accurate and it was mostly quiet. However, the photos do give a better impression than what it actually is. The motel appears to be partly used for emergency housing and so the pool and spa were occupied by children most of the time. Also the table outside our room was used by smokers a lot of the time.

the Oasis was great for the kids with a pool area. It's a little out of town, but easily managed with a vehicle. You are also in a perfect position to head 5 min down the road to the beautiful Wainui Beach. A first we felt a little isolated out of town, but quickly realised it was the perfect spot & felt safe, the rooms were clean & tidy and the kids loved the pool access.

Cleaning staff excellent. I was let down by the front desk manager who had a tantrum when I politely asked for fresh towels (during proper office hours) due to me being in the shower when the cleaning staff arrived to service my room, so they skipped me. Her attitude and rude treatment of me ruined my experience (she made me cry). She went out of her way to tell me how inconvenient I was. Hot water also ran out for each day after that incident after only 5 mins of use.
