    Great views from our apartment. Very clean and comfortable stay.

    Spa bath jets were very loud.

    4StevePosted on: 2-13-2026

    Villa was good for our family of 5 adults 2 children and 2 dogs. Plenty of space. Car park for 3 cars.

    Had to pay a surcharge on arrival for the dogs, which wasn't disclosed on Booking.Com when the Booking was made.Owners pit bull attacked one of dogs as we were leaving. Lots of signs in the villa on what not to do.There is railway line next to the complex. No direct access to the beach, via public access to Caroline BayVilla is showing ware and tear.

    Great hosts. Fabulous view. Very comfy bed! Everything one could want in a kitchen studio!

    9SinclairPosted on: 2-12-2026

    The view and comfortable couch. Spa was great.

    It was the main bed. Very bouncy. So I went into the other room which is way more comfortable

    8ChristopherPosted on: 2-10-2026

    The room had an excellent bathroom and kitchen facilities. It was also large and comfortable. It is located within walking distance of the main beach area, some restaurants and bars, and Timaru's main street. The beach is a 1200m walk from the elevated Piazza. Parking is a little tight but accessible. The Motel is on the busy route 1 so a little noisy during the day, much less so at night. Value was very good.

    8TristramPosted on: 2-7-2026

    Nice place and nice people !! Would have been better with beach view room!

    On main road, but not particularly noisy !

    8ChristianPosted on: 2-5-2026

    Very friendly staff

    Very thin walls, you hear everything from next door. Common in New Zealand though

    10BrendaPosted on: 2-4-2026

    We requested a room with a seaview and we were thrilled to have a beautiful view overlooking the port. There were lovely lawn and gardens in front of the seaview. It was so nice sitting at the table and chairs with our tea and coffee looking at that beautiful view. A great kitchen, big bathroom and comfortable beds. Everything was spotless.Ray made us feel very welcome.

    No complaints.

    9ElizabethPosted on: 1-31-2026

    Great stay, room with a balcony and sea view. Good location, I’ve dropped a star, just due to traffic noise from the road. Loads of room, very comfy and clean

    The road noise. But that can’t be helped with single pane windows. Noticeably all motels seemed to be on SH1. So I reckon we chose well.

    8JillPosted on: 1-25-2026

    Off street parking, lovely views over Park to harbour. Pet friendly

    9MichelePosted on: 1-25-2026

    Spotlessly clean. All the furnishings, bedding and curtains looked new. Well equipped kitchenette. Easy to walk into town.

    It would be good to have a rubbish bin in the bathroom as well as the kitchen.

    9RobertPosted on: 1-23-2026

    Central to Timaru activities and restaurants. Close to Caroline Bay. Comfortable room. Friendly staff.

    8RichardPosted on: 1-21-2026

    Nice view of Caroline Bay. Spa bath.

    The freight trains during the night were a bit jarring.

    7AlexPosted on: 1-18-2026

    Clean and good location

    Bed was very hard

    9DianePosted on: 1-15-2026

    We were given an ocean view room. It was large and very comfortable!

    For our experience, nothing.
