New Zealand“Room was as expected, staff were really nice and helpful” - Marilyn
United States“Very convenient to the penguin viewing and you don’t have to drive far to get to it after the viewing late at night. Manager was very responsive and it had everything we needed, including laundry. We really enjoyed staying here.” 
Jeannie United States“Check-in staff welcomed us warmly and gave us a map and great local tips. Unit was very spacious, and it was great to have a full kitchen. Set back just a bit from the main highway and very quiet at night. Easy parking. Spotless and well equipped.”
