Generally we don’t stay in motels that are right on the highway, so this was a lovely exception. We simply loved staying here. It has every convenience, including laundry and a swimming pool. The location is perfect for spending time in the Abel Tasman park We loved the kitchen. The host was friendly and attentive. I recommend this place

Good modern motel, great facilities. Room clean great shower, and kitchen well equipment. Is on a busy road but road noise overnight was not an issue. Parking a litter tight for some of the big SUV's. Would stay again.

It was nice to walk round the adjacent park without other people being there. Although on a busy road it was easy enough to enter and leave the property. The room we used was reasonably quiet having only a bathroom window opening to the street. I would stay here again.

We were a bit worried when checking in because it is situated by a busy road. It was not too bad actually as the window and curtains kind of isolated it. Shops are close by so very handy location.
