Mondello Kaikoura was very conveniently located, less than 2 mins drive to the main street dotted with shops and restaurants, and less than 2 mins (in the opposite direction) to the supermarket, convenience stores and other restaurants. We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment - which was clean and even had a balcony with mountainside view. There is a guest laundry (coin operated) that was easy to use and convenient.

Absolutely loved my one night say in the Willowbank Motel ,from the friendliness of the staff after I rang the bell late at night, rather then checking my emails (my bad), to the comfort of the room .. would highly recommend a stay here. My only regret is I couldn't stay longer.. 5 star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Room was spacious, clean and comfy! The rooms all seem to be recently renovated and are quite modern. The owner kept in touch during the stay and kept us informed about some work being done during our stay. Location wasn't central but still really handy! We also loved being able to see the mountains from our room.
