Our suite was spacious and clean with great facilities the shower had great pressure unfortunately we didn't have a chance to use the spa. Our towels, tea n coffee, tea towel were replaced every day, our room was private with great views of the Kaikōura ranges from our outside seating area. The staff were friendly and informative. The motel was in walking distance to town and Sime's cafe which is almost next door. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and the room was cosy and had great air conditioning on the hottest day. A great place to stay highly recommend. Chris & Te Paea from Masterton
