Most of Hawkes Bay is back up and running after the devastating effects of Cyclone Gabrielle and we would love to see visitors again.
Wineries, cycle trails and Farmers Market are just some of the special things here to experience. We would love to see you.

Important Lorde Update:
In line with advice from police, and her promoter, Lorde has made the tough decision to postpone her two Black Barn shows.

From Ella "I would love to be there with you right now, but I can also read the room, and taking precious resources away from those who need them right now is not it. This is a postponement not a cancellation at this stage — I’m working on something, and you’ll hear from me soon.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Kia kaha.”

Please head to our website for further details.

Thankfully Wine Country Motel had only minor damage from cyclone Gabrielle and is fully functioning and offering all the usual high standards of accommodation. Our hearts go out to all those who have been so severely affected and are pleased to have been able to provide emergency accommodation to some who needed it. Kia Kaha East Coast and Hawke’s Bay we will recover.

Good to see things opening up again.

Thankfully the Village CBD area has escaped largely unscathed. We have a few retailers and couple of cafes open with more eateries and takeout working to open for a dinner service. Plus, dairys are open for the basics.

The supermarket is currently closed while staff clear out the unsafe food items. They are waiting for deliveries and currently hoping to open around 5pm if trucks aren’t delayed further.

Our local businesses are trying to reopen as soon as they can so, the community can access what they need - many are aiming for tomorrow. However, please be mindful that while the business maybe undamaged the team behind them may be dealing with same issues as the rest of the community and will likely be running on reduced capacities.

The Hawke’s Bay Civil defence and your local council’s social media are the best place for updates regarding services.

Power is slowly being restored around Havelock North. However, there is only so much they can do until the damaged sub-station is repaired so some of the more disconnected areas are being advised it could be up to two weeks.
Spark seems to be the most connected; with 2 degrees and Vodafone networks still largely down.

We have been out in the community today, checking on people. As heart breaking as the damage is the community spirit is amazing, with so many supporting their neighbours and lending a hand - makes you grateful to live in such a special place 💕

Review from Dec 31, 2022
Wonderful location
We loved this property in the 2 bedroom family room.The bedrooms and living area were very spacious. The kitchenette had absolutely everything we needed. The hosts were so kind and helpful. The parking was easy. The location is absolutely perfect with walking trails, so many great restaurants, and Arataki Honey a short walk down the street. We definitely recommend this property.
