Close to the beach

Very comfy nice vibe

Structure is old but well taken care of. Both outside doors need replacing or at least the lock on one.

Property was very nice close to the beach n restruants walkable to town centre and bays would recommend to family n friends.

I highly recommend this place

Ok for a motel. Few amenities

Older motel but clean, warm & tidy. Very comfortable bed. Bathroom very small but it did have a new & great water-pressured shower. The door could do with some attention as it bangs & rattles in the wind. A microwave would have been an asset for us to reheat food.

We loved our room. It had excellent views of the water (we were the front unit). Could open up 2 sliding glass doors in the living room area to let the breeze in to make it seem like you were outside. Friendly and helpful managers. Free laundry right onsite. Comfortable bed. Would definitely stay there and in this unit again.

Very pleasant place to stay. No frills motel feel with parking right outside the motel door. The location was directly across street from beach and ocean. Less than 10 minute walk to small downtown area. Would stay again if we are able.

Great location, with the beach across the street and a cool little area with shops and restaurants just down the street.

We booked the superior room, which was really a 1 bedroom. It was quite a good value for the money. We had a small patio on the esplanade as well which looked over the road to beautiful Kaikoura Bay. Very pretty. Condition of property was excellent.

Fresh decor and easy access. Right across from the sea. Lovely manager.

Lovely location, friendly staff, very clean and we liked the laundry facilities. Would stay again

The only reason I rated it as good is because it has no air conditioning, apart from that very clean bed comfortable

Great location, clean & tidy, had everything we needed (plenty of plates, cups, utensils), good shower and very comfortable beds. Motel isn't serviced every day, which was ok but unexpected. No fan in the bathroom.

Comfortable, good location, friendly host and easy check in/check out.

The location was great, we were able to walked to the beach and bars. The accommodation had everything we needed and we enjoyed our stat

Very reasonable rates, quiet & great position

Value for money

Very happy with the choice I made to stay at Kaikoura Beach Motel; ours was a 2 bedrm unit, and while the complex is not new our unit had plenty of space, was spotlessly clean and very well maintained; parking right at the door and also a view of the ocean ... what more could one want ?? Also within walking distance to both the town centre one direction and the famous Pier Hotel in the other. Would I recommend this accommodation, definitely !!

We had a one bedroom apartment with a view over the beach. The apartment was large with good views. On the downside the cleaning needs to improve (don't really expect to find festering potato peeler behind microwave) and equipment for the kitchenette was minimal.

It is good to walk around 6 minutes to the town centre.

Kaikoura beach motel is in excellent location. The property needs a bit of attention as we had a broken toilet rollholder and Umbrella on out side table was broken. Also need a more utensils to cook and to eat as not enough cutlery. Microwave can not be use as there’s were not enough pots to heat up any things in it. Also the laundry room was at the back of our bedroom and some guest were using it until 11.00 pm so first night we did not get enough sleep. I asked manger to notice on the door not be used after 8.00pm and not before 8.00am and they did it promptly. That helped us to get better sleep on second night. I would politely ask for some compensation for this incident and inconvenience to us as we lost half a day because we got up so late on first day. This is un acceptable.

Overall, the conditions are excellent! One thing I couldn't forget is before checking in, the host was so considerate to warm up the room and make me warm when I arrived.

Very comfortable safe

Michele was very helpful getting wrong dates sorted - she knew i had to do it via Expedia.com. She also "pre-heated" our room for us before our arrival as the WX was turning a bit cool yesterday. Would stay again!

Loved our stay here, the self contained units were warm and cosy, great location, short walk to the township.

Efficient pre-arrival check in, clean room, comfortable king size bed. Great value, great location.

Great location

good

Easy walking into town.very clean. Needed a coat hook or similar.

Very nice accommodation by the sea front, conveniently located to the township a nice leg stretch.
