The beach was just on the other side of a retaining walkway but we had a picnic table on this walkway where we could see the beach. Pancake Rocks is a 10 minute walk. You can walk to the beach at low tide. The room was clean and roomy.

Nice place to stay in Punakaiki with some amazing views in the area. Very clean with lots of space, and in a great convenient location. Right next to a really nice beach, and just a couple minutes away from the Pancake Rocks. Parking is a little bit tight, but off-street and convenient. Check in is located at the Punakaiki Rocks Hotel & Garden Bar a short walk down the road, which is also a nice place to grab some food and a drink. We would definitely consider staying here again!
Outdoor seating at the nearby restaurant.
Great sunsets can be found on the nearby beach

Beach Shack feels, close to pancake rocks and beach. It’s a shame a rock wall had to be built in front of it (must have been recently as this is not shown in photos of the proprerty) but can see that it would be greatly affected by tides. Picnic tables on rock wall was nice to sit and watch the sunset and catch some extra sea breeze.

The space was very large. A kitchen a living room area. The bathroom was spacious and there were two beds. The only issue was Google Maps took us to the wrong location (apparently that keeps happening) but after a long day of travel it took longer than expected to find the place. A simple message to guests would be helpful. Other than that it was a great location and space

Super clean room. No view of the beach but a 2 minute walk and you’re there. Perfect for my dog I’ve been there before and I will go there again.

Less than 1 km from Punakaiki rocks. We rented a 1 bedroom cabin, it was more like a beautiful little home. Well supplied kitchen, sofa in the living room, separate bed and bath area and a laundry sink. A wonderful porch with table and chairs and an outside grill and picnic table. We had a wonderful meal at the restaurant. I highly recommend Punakaiki Beachfront Motels cabins. I wish we could have stayed longer. Very large and welcoming living areas.
