Quiet place in the middle of nowhere. Great stop if you wanted outdoor activities away from the crowds. Jennifer was very nice and helpful. My wife left her watch and they had it wrapped and ready when we returned.

I was pleasantly surprised by how cute and quaint the Ahuriri Motels in Omarama were. Checking in late at night was easy since we sent an email beforehand letting them know we would be arriving late. The staff provided clear instructions for how to find our unit. The stay was comfortable, quiet, and spacious. The bathroom was nice, and although the motel wasn't super luxurious, it was well-kept and clean. We really enjoyed our one-night stay during our road trip and appreciated the relaxing break it provided. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The Staff were very friendly, welcoming and accomodating. I am aware that this is a rural setting. However, a little warning about insects entering bathrooms etc would have been very welcome and would have taken precautions. Being a non air-conditioned motel the windows have to remain open especially on a hot day such as the day we were there. Otherwise all was good.

I was very unhappy with the service as I choose the studio unit which mentioned about kitchenette but did have stove for cooking no fans and if we try keeping the windows open all kind of insects were invited.Also as I had requested for a late check the office was shut so cldnt even ask for bathing towels which generally are been put in the rooms but we're not put and not very clean also
