Kaikoura Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent
"The owner of this property was really lovely and accommodating. We have come back a few times now. Each time for different reasons and sometimes needing abit of extra help. We’ve never had a problem with him not helping us out which we appreciate very much and are very thankful for."

8/10 Good
"Great cabin - warm, comfortable and generally clean. There was a bit of mould in the bathroom (wetfloor) unfortunately. The staff were fantastic and helpful. The holiday park is lovely. It's a shame the pool/hot pool isn't open a bit later though, especially in the warmer weather (also a shame the hot pools are not free - $20 for 30 minutes). Close to town and affordable! Enjoyed our stay! "
