The owners were extremely responsive and helpful. We did not have reservations for dinner on a busy night and they immediately "found a table" for us. The outside grounds are impressive, one can wander or sit and relax, the food, generous portions and excellent. Loved the location! The place is close to but not in the town, a tranquil setting near the lavender farm. Would definitely book again!

Staff were excellent, great service. Stone throw away from the supermarket and eatery. Short drive to the viewing point which is a must go.
Very happy with my stay, would definitely come back if I'm here again.

Location was perfect for walking to the Seal Colony along the path and the beach . The front Desk hours were very limited and the breakfast left a bit to be desired . But the location and the quaint courtyard make up for its downfalls.

Kaikoura is a 2 hr drive from our home, so we regularly visit for long weekends. It's a special part of NZ where people and nature can interact. There's something special about how the mountains meet the sea. And of course the fresh seafood is spectacular

WhaleWatch trip was very good.
WhaleWatch trip was very good. Great cafes: Flo and Co has excellent coffee. Sime's Kitchen had great breakfast and lunch - vegan choices were delicious. Tipsy Foodies also recommended. Southern Paua shop and factory highly recommended - amazing range of jewellery, carvings and gifts. Some exquisite pounamu too. Best place to buy gifts in Kaikoura!!
Novel Findings is a great bookshop and homewares shop - don't miss it!
Loved the Ngāi Tahu artworks beside the highway, murals on the railway bridge and buildings. It's really worth checking the "Neat Places Kaikoura" website - lots of great suggestions for cool places and things to do in Kaikoura.

The wild life was definitely the highlight of the trip for me. I went swimming with dolphins and saw load of seals with their pups.
Also the people in the town are super friendly and helpful.
Of course the scenery is also breathtaking.
Loads of nice eating places that serve great seafood.

Very easy to find way to attractions,town lovely and clean.Plenty of eating places,ones we used were all excellent and value for money.Only thing we regretted was we missed the Whale Watch tour as it was blowing hard both full days we were there and there were no sailings.Will have to go back again.
While we just needed to be here so that we could get on an earlier whale watching cruise the next day, the property that all of our needs, and we would definitely consider another stay. our room had of sliding glass door, overlooking the bay, with a small table and chairs for outdoor dining.
The property is away from downtown Kaikoura, so it was very quiet and very relaxing.
The location could not be better. It was directly across the road from the beach. We had a stunning view of the ocean and coastal Kaikoura range. Restaurants and shops were walking distance away. It was also a nice touch that the hotel was so generous with the little extras - more tea, coffee (plunger, pods, and instant!), and hot chocolate than we could get through.
The location is lovely being across from the beach with a beautiful view of the mountains.
It was clean, tidy and comfortable with a good sized kitchen and smart TV. Appreciated the fridge had a freezer compartment too not just one of those little ice boxes you get in most motels fridges.
Michelle - Absolutely the perfect person who greeted us and us so welcome and the staff, superb. Rome was absolutely spotless, and Michelle offered to put my catch of fish (went charter fishing with Tommo & Shane Kaikoura Charters) in the freezer for me. Again, superb, loved it.There
The place is just a short drive from Kaikoura main hub. Our room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Judy the host is kind and helpful. Ample parking available. Nice continental breakfast and great view from the breakfast area!
A great location in Kaikoura, right near the beach which was awesome and the New World is around the corner. I liked that it was nice and quiet. It’s also about a 20 minute walk to the town. The room was very tidy and clean.
Nice quiet location with access to the beach across the street. perfect for a pre dinner walk. Enjoyed being away from busy Kaikoura, but yet close. Be sure to walk the Kaikoura Peninsula Walkway - it was wonderful!
Lovely 2 bedroom home away from home in Kaikoura. Would definitely stay here again. Nicely decorated, good location with parking, enough comfortable beds for our family of 5 with 3 adult sized children.
Excellent facilities. kitchen and bathrooms were better than most the motels we have stayed in. staff very polite and helpful. I would recommend. the beach access was also great
We loved this hotel. It was so clean. The room was very nice. It had everything we needed. Great bathroom/shower. The front staff were kind and helpful.
