Book a Seaward Valley Cottage

"Convenient. Clean. Quiet."

"This was a fantastic place to stay "

"Great property in the quieter end of town. Excellent facilities. Opposite the beach. Parking to hand. Highly recommended. Note the check in details from Expedia are not quite correct. check-in is 2-6pm and reception reopens at 2. Expedia says reception is only open until 10am. The email I received the night before from the property regarding check in went to junk mail. "

"Perfect location if you’re doing an early dolphin or albatross tour—literally right across the street, so you can just walk over in minutes. Super convenient and stress-free for early starts. Great choice if wildlife tours are your priority. "

"Clean comfortable room and friendly helpful staff.."

"Very clean and tidy room and facilities. Comfortable bed. Good shower pressure. Allocated parking but ours was a bit tight for a larger vehicle. On a busy road but don't hear any traffic noise. Lovely outlook."

"Happy hour staff not polite $62 for 4 drinks during happy hour ? 2 wine and 2 beer A little on the expensive side for happy hour "

"The place was great! Maybe not for everyone but perfect for anyone with kids or just looking for something a little different. We are seniors but have done a lot of camping and this was glamping at its best. We picked the yurt which had an outdoor kitchen and an external bathroom. Everything felt really authentic yet still very modern. It all was just there as one would expect from a nice hotel but presented in a different way. Kind of a cowboy camp or depression era type of a kitchen outside but with a gas bbq and cook stove and hot running water. Really enjoyed it. The other sites looked like interesting places to stay too. Our bathroom was as perfect as any and yet different. If coming from the south be careful with Apple app directions as it took us to where the road crosses a river only suitable for a 4x4. But from Kaikōura it was easy to get to just off the highway."

"The bed was very comfortable and the shower had great water pressure, friendly staff and everything was very clean."
