Surfers catch perfect waves at Opunake Beach while hikers explore the coastal walkway with stunning views of Mount Taranaki. The town's colourful murals celebrate Taranaki's history, and nearby Lake Opunake offers peaceful kayaking for visitors seeking tranquility.
Stunning location. Beautiful gardens and ‘secret’ pathways. Very quiet. Comfortable beds and powerful shower! Beautiful lounge and dining area and well set up with pool table. Would be great for a group but also relaxing for a couple. Wonderful stay.

Stayed in one of the motel rooms during a 2-day stopover for business. Have stayed here before and the experience was just as good this time around. Motel room impeccably clean. Also comfortable and quiet. Very good value for money.
Staff are excellent here. I noticed that the wi-fi was considerably faster and much more reliable than during my previous stay. That was about my only issue during my previous stays, but it's a LOT better now.
I highly recommend Stratford Kiwi Motels &...
