★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Bathroom not so brilliant . Didn't like the fact coffee and sugar etc had been dipped into by previous guests. On the up side lovely and peaceful, warm and plenty of room.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was clean and well presented. The unit was excellent. Waking up to the bird song every morning was the best thing. Every day I saw at least 10 tuis. Good host just remember that check in time is 2.00.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent spacious and comfortable room with kitchenette handy to a number of easy and very pleasant walks to the beach and river mouth. Beach access best at low tide. Plan to spend at least two nights here.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not your standard motel but charming. Room 2 has a comfortable bed, large bathroom, separate sitting room with kitchen and dining table, and a deck. The sofa needs replacing and the shower curtain was stained but overall the place was cute.
A bigger detraction is the lack of local amenities, the grocery store across the road hasn't opened in weeks.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ There are quite a few accommodation options in The Catlins and I was surprised at how expensive there were for the area. I decided to book a twin room here as it was a reasonable price considering being in the middle of nowhere.
Though dated in décor, the room was very clean; spacious bathroom and kitchen area which had a hot place for self-cooking etc; the usual tea/coffee with electric jug, crockery, cutlery etc.
Craig is a very friendly man, most helpful and the Motel complex actually offers quite a number of rooms.
We've scored a 3 but it's more like a 3.5 - almost a 4, as the beds probably need to be updated, especially the sheets as ours were quite threadbare; a couple of the coffee mugs were cracked - one even leaked water when filled; and the oil heater had rust spots all over it but it worked very well.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very dated motel. Old and werid empty pot plant that just had a pot with soil. Just really needed a tidy up. Like that it allowed dogs and the location. Craig needs a slight attitude change.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Visited the region from Dunedin in February. Stayed overnight. Mould on curtains and lamp shades. Rusted oil heater, rot in window sills, hot plate striker not working, stains on sheets, some utensils with broken handles. The lack of attention to detail in maintenance shows. Host advised us he had run out of milk a few days earlier, and suggested we provide our own. Would not recommend and will not be staying again.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice motel unit with morning and afternoon sun. The manager was grouchy with us for reducing our stay and hovered around a bit too much for my liking but the bed was comfortable for a good sleep. I recommend replacing the discoloured kettle and adding extra pillows and a bath mat.
