Pros:

Super friendly staff and very welcoming on arrival. Great hospitality by everyone overall. Breakfast was delicious, accommodation unit, pub and restaurant area were warm, cozy and inviting. .

Cons:

In our unit only observation is the unit by the TV in the bedroom is a safety hazard, can easily bang your head on the edge side by the TV where the side of the unit comes a little way down from the top.

Beautiful location, great shower, lovely bed, easy walk to beach!
Pros:

The room was great, and the shower was the best shower we have had during our travels in the South Island. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the room was very spacious. The staff were super friendly and provided us with a lot of information about the area. We were able to walk around the beach, which was so pretty and easy to access.

Cons:

Everything about the hotel was great! Dinner service ended earlier than we thought, however, we found an alternative nearby. Wish we had eaten at the hotel restaurant though!
