Stayed for 2 nights whilst on holiday from the uk with my partner & son. We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit between Christmas & New Year for a 🐋 watching trip. Very clean, great facilities, pool was a bonus, only a short walk into town, 🐋 watching was fantastic. Couldn't ask for more.
Really nice experience. Room had everything well thought out as to what a traveller might need. Comfortable bed and beautifully clean throughout. Units were arranged around a kind of central area and had a laundry with both washer and dryer available. Close to the rest of Kaikoura which is a lovely place to stop with many shops close to the hotel. Highly recommend
What a fabulous hotel, everything was spotless, unfortunately we stayed here for 1 night before driving on to Christchurch. Would definitely stay here again. This motel is a credit to the owners. Located just outside of the beach strip, its a nice pleasant stroll into town. Best motel we have ever stayed in.
