The stay was magnificent: so tranquil and beautiful. The birdlife was fantastic. We fell asleep to the sound of kiwi and ruru and woke up to the song of tui and korimako. The facilities were modern, clean and beautiful with a lovely patio with a nice bbq. I'll definitely stay here again. The only thing I regret is that we only booked it for one night!

Friendly and very accommodating host, loved all the wild birds we saw right outside our balcony and window! There were Kaka birds that came right up to us and beautiful sounds on Tui singing endlessly. Thank you Bill and to our surprise it came with a car as well, which we got around Stewart island much more efficiently. I would definitely come back here and stay happily 😊

You don't need to spend money on tours if you don't have it...

You don't need to spend money on tours if you don't have it (I never do), as there are plenty of beautiful walks to discover for yourself. Ulva Island is a must, though!!! The bird life is amazing, and even though at home we have plenty of kereru, piwakawaka, bellbirds, the song and sight of these guys over there is next level. Kereru, walking or sitting on the ground, is not seen in cities. Do take sandfly spray as these wee guys are also very friendly 😉

The township of Oban is the place to find out most info, access e-bikes and get details of walks, kiwis, trips to places such as Ulva Island. It’s the central township for the island. Glad it has a four square, friendly people at the Doc site. Butterfield Bay is gorgeous.

Great place. I would have liked more time to do more walks.

Great place. I would have liked more time to do more walks. We stayed 2 nights - just enough to do a kiwi experience and visit Ulva Island. We were unlucky with no Kiwi sightings. But the longer walks would have green goid to do if we had more time.

We loved Stewart Island and our travel by ferry to Half Moon...

We loved Stewart Island and our travel by ferry to Half Moon Bay. We ate several meals at South Sea Restaurant. Delicious! Several walks, beaches and sights were within easy walking distance. We took a taxi from our accommodations to Golden Bay for our Beaks and Feathers Tour to Ulva Island which we would highly recommend. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the island, the birds and trees.

Very peaceful and quaint area that is brilliant for walking to see stunning scenery and enjoy the wildlife. Lots of well made pathways and with the island roads being quiet it was easy to explore the numerous beautiful sandy bays. I will definitely come back to enjoy more of this fabulous area.

Beautiful place with lovely people.

Beautiful place with lovely people. Good range of shops although only a few. The new Museum is definitely worth viewing but quite pricey. Stunning bird life and scenery. Totally awesome place and people.

This hotel boasts a perfect, balanced location. Perched on a hillside, it offers wonderful views without a difficult climb. It's within easy walking distance of Oban's center, the ferry, and check-in for flights (you do this in the city center), yet remains peacefully removed from the late-night buzz of the town. Our room (number 4) was fantastic. The view was stunning, and we were delighted by visits from various beautiful birds right outside our window.

The most comfortable thick duvet on the best. Such a good nights sleep. A short walk up the hill to reach the property from the ferry terminal. Everything we needed for our short stay was there. Our host let us know we only had a short amount of time if we wanted food at the hotel in the village, so glad of this or we would have missed it.

This small boutique hotel is a gem. Sat just above the bay great views from our room and a very short walk to the harbour and facilities. The owners Deanne and Chris really looked after us and the food was exceptional. A welcoming Alfie the dog was just an extra bonus!

Very nicely thought out amenities for a backpacker hotel. I had a single room which was just a bed. It was a nice way to experience the shared facilities as a solo traveler. I made a homemade meal to get a break from all restaurant food.
