Easy to find, central location perfect for a quick stop over through Haast. Staff were all excellent, easy parking right out front of unit, big room with comfortable beds and super soft sheets. New bar fridge, room had everything we needed. Great to have an onsite restaurant with a big fireplace and good menu. Food was delicious and beers were cold! Outstanding value for money. Highly recommend!

The room was very clean and the manager Tania was very friendly and helpful and provided some good recommendations of things to check out in the area 😊
I also really appreciated the electric blankets on the bed!

Some really good coastal walks set up by DOC. Some great board walks and coastal walks of various lengths. Peaceful area with most tourists not taking advantage of the walks and stopping in car parks for a quick look only. Warning: don't go off road near beachs. We towed someone out of the sand!

Haast is a definite stop and you must visit Jackson's Bay. Although itis a long way from Haast its a lovely drive and an interesting place when you get there. Make sure you take insect repellant as it is a MUST.
We ate at the hotel restaurant. Good selection of mains.
Lots of walks.

Haast requires some commitment to not just blast through to Wanaka or the glaciers. The visitors centre and the boardwalk (on way to Jackson Bay) are both worth an hour of your time. Plus all the points on the map just before and after Knights Point, Ship creek walks x2, waterfalls. An overnight stay is recommended to have two brilliant travel days.
Take snacks and a flask though, it's remote and you may not find something open when you are hungry. And sandfly repellent, and long clothes!

We only stayed in Haast for 2 nights as a stopover between Queenstown and Franz Josef. Although there is not a lot to do apart from various walks and some fishing we did do a day trip down to Jackson Bay. A lovely little village on the edge of the ocean and they have a great seafood restaurant.

Jackson's Bay was probably beautiful in the sun, it was pouring down whilst we were there!! There is nothing to see at Haast- The beach isOK but there are the awful black bitingfies in their droves, other than that it is just a place to break a journey if necessary.

Haast is a nice remote location close to the seashore and national park. When travelling there are the facilities that you would need, but limited in choices. There is a Pub and Cafe where you can eat, but beware of their hours of operation. Wifi and cell service seeks to be restrictive in the region should you be needing it.
Haast is really, I mean REALLY, small. This motel is located just down the street from essentially the only two restaurants in the town. Easy safe car parking right in front of your room. Nice kitchenette in the room as well as excellent Wi-Fi. Okay bed, okay bathroom. Overall quite clean room. The motel property had some nice plants around the perimeter. The woman that checked us in was friendly and pleasant.
It was a sweet old style motel where you park at the door. Beds were comfy, the room was clean.Dinner at the restaurant was fabulous with very generous meals,
the staff we had contact with were all lovely.
It was a great stop to break up our trip to Queenstown from Hokitika
Aspire Motel, Haast offers very nice accommodation. The rooms are very well equipped and comfortable. I had a view to hills from my room and was able to park the car outside. The bathroom and kitchen are also lovely. The WiFi offered good signal strength.
Well presented, the unit was properly cleaned with everything that one would expect. It probably wasn’t a five star hotel but as a motel in a stunning position with everything needed for an overnight stop it is definitely worth a visit
Was upgraded to a queen bedroom by pleasant staff at this backpackers and motel. The bed was comfortable for a quiet night's stay. Quirky internal garden common area. Grocery takeaway behind the facilities. Good parking available.
Haast is a very small town but the motel was very close to all facilities. We were only staying one night but it was a very nice and clean motel and the owners were very friendly and helpful as to what to see around the town.
The motel is located between Haast Beach and Jacksons Bay so you can drive to the latter in about 30 minutes to see the sunset and/or do the Ocean Beach walk. It is near the Hapuka Estuary Walk. It is also dog-friendly.
Haast is a quiet township, so accommodation is few and spread out. The hostess tipped us on a good dinner restaurant in the township but it was 13 km to drive. Hard Antler was good!
2nd time in a month we stayed at the haast motel
Whilst basic,it is great value with a good heater and electric blankets, it's very clean and beds are comfortable
