Waves Restaurant @ Watermark Hotel & Spa

The buffet has a great variety of seafood and other food, but the desserts are amazing! The only issue is that they don't cater for dietary requirements well (or at all). Good value for money if you can get a deal - I wouldn't pay full price.

Used Groupon offer which made it better value. There was a pretty good selection of dishes available, and the quality and presentation was very good indeed. Certainly better than many others! We came for the seafood, and the oysters were superbly fresh, and they had great quality sweet fresh prawns and spanner crab, but the swimmer crabs unfortunately weren't great tonight! However I had the best tasting garlic and chilli NZ green mussels here! Tandoori chicken was lovely too! The service we got was fantastic from all the staff. We shall be coming back!

We went early with two young kids. Probably the best service I've ever had. Solid range of food and everything tasted great. The seafood on offer was crab, muscles, oysters and the king prawns were awesome. I probably had too much of the desserts, but they all looked too good to ignore. There was enough there to keep the kids grazing and plenty of room for them to move around without causing trouble.

We had dinner here again on a Saturday night when we last stayed at the Watermark. The variety of food was good and catered for many tastes. The seafood selection had prawns, oysters, bugs, crab and smoked salmon. All were fresh and added to regularly.There were a range of hot dishes on offer as well with crumbed fish pieces, Oysters Kilpatrick , spaghetti carbonara, Roast pork and roast beef, baked vegetables, curry's and a bar that cooked stir frys on request. There is also a salad section and cold meats and a selection of cheeses. There is also a desert bar that caters for adults and kids.The service was efficient and all staff were polite and helpful and the dining area is spacious with soft lighting.Although Saturday nights are more expensive than week nights it is a great experience
