Carters Beach Top 10 Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"Enjoyed our stay at Carter's Beach and would return in the future. Was unable to park outside our unit on returning for a day trip as someone else has parked there - their unit was around the corner where there was no parking for them. We found this a bit annoying."

Scenic Hotel Punakaiki

8/10 Good

"Loved the area - sea-scapes were awesome. Our evening meal was very well presented and very tasty. Was not happy to find several long black hairs in our unit, on bed and in bathroom. Also the heated towel rail was loose."

Westport Spa Motel

8/10 Good

"One night stay..starting to show its age but overall in clean condition..bed was comfortable..shower pressure was a bit lacking but sufficient. Check in was quick and friendly."
