    Pros +

    • We had a wonderful stay here for two nights. First of all, the accommodation was spotlessly clean, and the facilities were modern and well equipped. We especially loved the skylight in the bathroom — it instantly made the space feel bright and relaxing.One highlight worth mentioning is that all three rooms were equipped with air conditioning, which is a big plus. Even during the hot summer days, we were able to sleep very comfortably. What surprised me most was that the bed came with two pillows of different heights. As someone who prefers a low pillow, this truly made a huge difference to my sleep quality.The location is very convenient, with Pak’nSave and a shopping centre within walking distance, and it’s also a short drive to our favourite restaurant, The Mussel Pot.After we checked out, we realised that our daughter had left her beloved unicorn toy behind. After contacting the owner, they not only helped us find it right away, but also kindly mailed it back to us free of charge. Although the process took a little time, we are truly grateful for your kind help. Seeing our daughter happily reunited with her lost toy was a wonderful surprise and genuinely heart-warming.This is truly a place with heart. We highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again.
    • Roomy, comfortable, good location
    • Our room was spacious, tidy and value for money, we spoke to reception on checking out and we rebooked another room on our trip back south as they had one room available so we took it

    It was great location and comfort place closed to the shops and drive to Blenheim airport only take 6mins.

    We booked three bedrooms, but there was only one heater in the living room, so all three bedrooms were little cold at night.

    9GillianPosted on: 4-6-2025

    We had a two bedroom unit for four people but was able to sleep 6. We were very comfortable and had everything we needed. Also at the back of the complex so was nice and quiet. We will return.

    9JeffreyPosted on: 3-8-2025

    Admirals was close to shops and we had a self contained unit for 4 people, so made use of the bbq. The pool was a bit chilly, but the hot tub made up for that. Great stay, close to all the local wineries.

    Previous users left the bbq very messy and had not cleaned it before they left. Not the property's fault.

    Got a room on the first floor a little far from the street, so it was relatively quiet. Location is not central, but good to visit the vineyards around. Typical room for this kind. There is a convenience store in the adjacent petrol station. Separate shower in the jacuzzi room.

    9PaulPosted on: 3-6-2025

    Comfortable, clean and plenty of room.
