Independent in Wainui from NZ$70

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Akaroa Waterfront Motels. Due to the time of year we were planning on the weather potentially being cold and wet - the extra $30+ dollars for the Water View room was well worth it. The rooms are about 4-5 meters from the sea. The spa and massage service was also worthwhile. Although the complex is old the rooms have been freshened up recently and they look good. The standard of cleanliness and overall presentation of the rooms was excellent. We would gladly stay here again."

"Fab location right beside new stadium. Easy 5-10 minute walk to great cafes/restaurants and tram stop. Comfy bed and a bonus having laundry facilities in bathroom. Would definitely recommend staying here."

"What a beautiful peaceful space to reset the home is clean and warm with everything you need. The garden is special and the vibe is surrounded with beautiful possessions I loved all the lamps. "

"Friendly staff, great view, warm and comfortable, spacious with nice extra's in the bathroom. Would stay here again."

"Fantastic spot!"

"Staff were great and the room was nice+ comfortable bed "

"A very nice place"

"We enjoyed the fact that it was very peaceful once we were in our unit. The water pressure in the shower has a great water pressure. The towels were fluffy and absorbent. The drink caddy was topped up daily. The safety aspect of handrails for the stairs and along the balcony was also appreciated especially when it had been raining. The undercover parking was also appreciated by us. Thank you for making our first bit to the South Island an amazing experience. Kind regards to the C Motel Whānau from Moka and Steven from Pt England, Auckland "

"Comfy bed."
