Lovely motel! Rooms were amazing. The bath opening to main room was gorgeous. We had an upstairs room and cheeky view of lake. Was just lovely for my birthday getaway with my partner. Easy walk to town and bars

Outstanding hospitality! Everyone is going the extra mile to make this stay as relaxing, as positive, as special as possible. This was truly remarkable. The rooms were way better than we expected at this price range. The kitchenette had everything we needed, the bathroom was spacious and the bed/livingroom was big well designed. The BBQ and outdoor area was unique. We loved the pretty trees and the awesome grill. 10/10 and 100% recommendation. This was by far the best stay in New Zealand.
