The motel is located a bit away from the main wharf and from all the main stores in town but still within walkable distance. The room was really clean and had all the amenities we needed for our stay. There's also an outdoor seating from our room which was nice for having breakfast.

A very well equipped unit, clean with good facilities although bed a bit high for short people! A spacious unit but table area quite tight. There was only one comfortable chair when booking was for two people. Unfortunately no views with this unit.

Very clean and comfortable room. Owner very lovely and hospitable. Bed was comfortable. We were sad our visit coincided with a flooding event in the area so we couldn’t only spend one night here instead of our originally planned 2 nights. Akaroa and Banks Peninsula are beautiful and we hope to come back so we can fully enjoy the area someday.

We had a back room with a garden view. Loved the stream and bush setting. It was a nice quiet place to stay.
