Home away from Home! Had everything I needed, great place to stay with dog, good location to walks, beaches, Jackson Bay. Loved having the use of a washing machine and dryer.

Some really good coastal walks set up by DOC. Some great board walks and coastal walks of various lengths. Peaceful area with most tourists not taking advantage of the walks and stopping in car parks for a quick look only. Warning: don't go off road near beachs. We towed someone out of the sand!

Haast is a definite stop and you must visit Jackson's Bay.
Haast is a definite stop and you must visit Jackson's Bay. Although itis a long way from Haast its a lovely drive and an interesting place when you get there. Make sure you take insect repellant as it is a MUST.
We ate at the hotel restaurant. Good selection of mains.
Lots of walks.

Haast requires some commitment to not just blast through to Wanaka or the glaciers. The visitors centre and the boardwalk (on way to Jackson Bay) are both worth an hour of your time. Plus all the points on the map just before and after Knights Point, Ship creek walks x2, waterfalls. An overnight stay is recommended to have two brilliant travel days.
Take snacks and a flask though, it's remote and you may not find something open when you are hungry. And sandfly repellent, and long clothes!

We only stayed in Haast for 2 nights as a stopover between Queenstown and Franz Josef. Although there is not a lot to do apart from various walks and some fishing we did do a day trip down to Jackson Bay. A lovely little village on the edge of the ocean and they have a great seafood restaurant.

Jackson's Bay was probably beautiful in the sun, it was pouring down whilst we were there!! There is nothing to see at Haast- The beach isOK but there are the awful black bitingfies in their droves, other than that it is just a place to break a journey if necessary.

Haast is a nice remote location close to the seashore and national park. When travelling there are the facilities that you would need, but limited in choices. There is a Pub and Cafe where you can eat, but beware of their hours of operation. Wifi and cell service seeks to be restrictive in the region should you be needing it.
This motel room well and truly exceeded our expectations! Not only were the rooms larger than expected, the location was conveniently located between Haast and Jackson Bay. There were numerous tv channels, and intermittent wifi. The bathroom was huge, and an added bonus was having both a washing machine and dryer in our unit. We also really appreciated that the units are pet-friendly. This isn't a 5 star accommodation option, but it is comfortable and clean, and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, or to recommend it!
Personally we really like this kind of lodge, the owner is very kind and happy to share stories with you. The grounds are very well kept, the room was super clean and the bed was comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch out our door. A 2 minute walk is a very good restaurant, The Hard Antler, my venison bolognaise was delicious. Our stay in Haast and the Heritage Park Lodge is something we'll always remember.
Haast is really, I mean REALLY, small. This motel is located just down the street from essentially the only two restaurants in the town. Easy safe car parking right in front of your room. Nice kitchenette in the room as well as excellent Wi-Fi. Okay bed, okay bathroom. Overall quite clean room. The motel property had some nice plants around the perimeter. The woman that checked us in was friendly and pleasant.
We stayed 1 night enroute West Coast travel. The Motel is right on the Beach highway. It has full cooking facilities. There is not much close by but we walked to the beach in 5 minutes. Nice view at sunset. Car is parked right at the door therefore very convenient. Staff helpful, gave us good information (e mail.messaging) prior to arrival.
The owners were wonderful. Full of local knowledge and very happy to help in any way. The location was central. Close to the local pub, crepe stall and Cafe. It was very clean and had everything that we needed for a comfy stay.
If you are going to Haast, you cannot go wrong if you stay at the Heritage Park Lodge.
The location was amazing as it felt like we were at the end of the world. The quick walk across the road to the beach meant really handy access. Units were clean and comfortable if a little tight.
The hosts are friendly and happy to provide advice on the local area.
Great friendly welcome and super location with units clean and comfortable. Well equipped and parking outside door . Units warm and close to hotel for meals . Our go to motel when we are touring the West Coast. Also able to do our laundry which was a bonus .
Aspire Motel, Haast offers very nice accommodation. The rooms are very well equipped and comfortable. I had a view to hills from my room and was able to park the car outside. The bathroom and kitchen are also lovely. The WiFi offered good signal strength.
The room was better than expected. Even though the Motel is close to the road there is no traffic overnight on the road so very quiet. Just the sounds of the waves breaking on the nearby shore.
About 100 yards to an isolated beach which was wonderful.
Was upgraded to a queen bedroom by pleasant staff at this backpackers and motel. The bed was comfortable for a quiet night's stay. Quirky internal garden common area. Grocery takeaway behind the facilities. Good parking available.
Haast is a very small town but the motel was very close to all facilities. We were only staying one night but it was a very nice and clean motel and the owners were very friendly and helpful as to what to see around the town.
Stunning location opposite beach with views back to Mt Aspiring range. Very peaceful and right in the strong weather, which I love. 10 minutes from town. Good linens & shower very suitable for families.
Everything. It was so peaceful and quiet. There’s a beautiful room where it’s so easy to loose track of time relaxing in there surrounded by plants. Best backpackers I’ve ever stayed at.
The room is very spacious and well equipped. The location is close to the Haast river and ocean, great for us to have a rest between visiting two national parks.
