A great hotel with a fantastic location. The room is better than the pictures with a fridge and small kitchen area. Highly recommended.

Stunning and clever concept. Lived up to expectations as a very memorable experience. A lot of thought has gone into these purepods, and into all the little extras that come with it. Wish we had stayed an extra night or two. If you're into tech and off grid living you're going to love it. Barbecuing our steaks on the balcony with a nice glass of red as the sun went down was one of the highlights of our NZ trip.

    The township of Oban is the place to find out most info, access e-bikes and get details of walks, kiwis, trips to places such as Ulva Island. It’s the central township for the island. Glad it has a four square, friendly people at the Doc site. Butterfield Bay is gorgeous.

    Great place. I would have liked more time to do more walks.

    Great place. I would have liked more time to do more walks. We stayed 2 nights - just enough to do a kiwi experience and visit Ulva Island. We were unlucky with no Kiwi sightings. But the longer walks would have green goid to do if we had more time.

    We loved Stewart Island and our travel by ferry to Half Moon Bay. We ate several meals at South Sea Restaurant. Delicious! Several walks, beaches and sights were within easy walking distance. We took a taxi from our accommodations to Golden Bay for our Beaks and Feathers Tour to Ulva Island which we would highly recommend. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the island, the birds and trees.

    Very peaceful and quaint area that is brilliant for walking to see stunning scenery and enjoy the wildlife. Lots of well made pathways and with the island roads being quiet it was easy to explore the numerous beautiful sandy bays. I will definitely come back to enjoy more of this fabulous area.

    Beautiful place with lovely people.

    Beautiful place with lovely people. Good range of shops although only a few. The new Museum is definitely worth viewing but quite pricey. Stunning bird life and scenery. Totally awesome place and people.

    We took our push bikes so getting around was very easy. Luckily the weather was perfect. Still a little chilly at night but beautiful sunny days. We went as far as the road would go in every direction and found stunning sandy beaches along the way. Basic meals at the pub were reasonably priced just watch out for the specials make sure they tell you the price before committing to the order ( $70 lobster tail ) apparently was delicious !! Not many food outlet options. Four square was surprisingly well priced for everyday items they had a bit of everything and the staff were super happy upbeat and friendly.

    Great hotel a short walk to the central area with space to park a car (good if you want to explore the island!). The room was very comfortable though the beds were only double I think, so if you're 6'2" like me, your feet will hang off the end. The first night I wasn't all that comfortable as I felt the bed was too soft - but the room has two beds so the second night I tried the other bed closer to the door and it was perfect for me. The pick up and drop off to the flight centre was good too.

    This small boutique hotel is a gem. Sat just above the bay great views from our room and a very short walk to the harbour and facilities. The owners Deanne and Chris really looked after us and the food was exceptional. A welcoming Alfie the dog was just an extra bonus!

    Very nicely thought out amenities for a backpacker hotel. I had a single room which was just a bed. It was a nice way to experience the shared facilities as a solo traveler. I made a homemade meal to get a break from all restaurant food.
