Bendamere House Bed & Breakfast

Kaikoura Gateway Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"The room was spotless and clean, really nice location. It was a shame that the pool was closed for the winter on a pair of 22 degree days when its been Spring for a month. I feel like thats something that needs mentioning on the website. We booked this one with the pool in mind and my kids were pretty disappointed that it was closed"

Kaikoura Quality Suites

8/10 Good

"Fantastic location to stay brilliant views to the snow capped peaks and a view of the ocean from the kitchenette. Was close to key amenities and was easy walking distance to town."

Alpine-pacific Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"The wifi was terrible. Not sure if that's because my room was the furtherest away or it's just bad in general. The room itself was nice and the toilets and showers were good. I told them I would be late arriving and they told me where to find the key. Overall the stay was good it was just the wifi that was the issue because I wanted to work from my room so it was kind of important."
