Beautiful peaceful location with sheep as neighbours. Great roomy parking.
Very comfortable adult bed.
Lovely travel cot set up for baby & they kindly provided us with toy building blocks also which was so kind.

A fine solution for an overnight stay, but when you say "tiny" that is exactly correct.
But Tranquility was certainly tranquil and nicely located.
Heating was a slight issue as we found it rather cold overnight whilst we do not like running heating systems unnecessarily when asleep.
Guests staying at Catlins Newhaven Holiday Park are a 5-minute walk from Surat Bay, a long sand beach in Newhaven, where you may be lucky enough to see a Hooker Sea Lion.

This was the perfect base for doing day trips into the Catlins and Central Otago. The property had a lovely view, a realy lovely modern bathroom and a comfortable bed. We also enjoyed having only one other neighbour and the manager was lovely.
Seascape Accommodation has 3 modern apartments, all fitted with quality furnishings, free WiFi, a Smart TV and views across the ocean to the Nugget Point Lighthouse.

Lovely accommodation right across the road from the beach, beautiful view. Very clean, modern and comfortable bed. Great hosts, thank you. We would definitely stay again.
As families grow in size, so too do the needs of a family holiday. That’s why family hotels are set up to cater for all ages, from toddlers and kids to teens and adults. Typically, you can expect restaurants with kids’ menus, games rooms, fitness centres and a pool area where children can play and parents can relax.
The house is very cosy and confortable. Perfectly located on the top of a hill overseeing the estuary waters. It's spacious and well equipped so families will enjoy it very much. It's also a short car ride from surat bay beach or nugget point so ideal if you want to explore the area. The staff was also very friendly and proactive on making sure we had a good time. We definitely recommend this house for families or couples wanting a nice retreat in Catlins.

We have stayed here a few times and have found these hotels to have everything you would need to have a good stay, whether as a couple or with a family. The facilities are a bit dated but well maintained and very clean as are the grounds outside. They come with covered parking and a few friendly cat visitors! I would highly recommend this Motel for convenience and comfort.
A perfect choice for my family. Clean, comfortable and all the facilities we needed for a short stay in the area.
Parking was available at the front door to our room. Our host Gaynor, well her delicious welcome muffins held over the kids until I could prepare dinner in the fully equiped kitchen. Spacious and warm rooms, and the beds.... so comfortable it was hard to get out of bed in the morning. Supermarket is located around the corner, and exceptional coffee is near there too (look for a little wooden house with a "coffee' sign).
Very satisfied with the accommodation staying at the private room with 3 bedrooms with a sizable lounge (netflix and strong wifi) ,bathroom and kitchen worth the money especially with family/kids.
Sealions, when you have sealions on a beach less than 5 minute walk you have to be happy.
Family friendly, easy, casual atmosphere. Very chilled out way to holiday.
our room was just beside the trampolin and other children stuff, what was great once we have 2 toddlers. the owner is very nice and peaceful. very clean and tide. outstanding location. will came back!
Tessa the host and her beautiful dog Arlo were super friendly and welcoming. She was knowledgeable about the area and was more than happy to answer all our questions.
The room was affordable for a family of 4 and exactly as described and cleaned up to a high standard. Great location too!
There were no smoke alarms in the cabin we stayed in, which I thought must have been illegal!! Not impressed at all with young children. The water pressure was very very disappointing & we had to pay extra to use the communal facilities to get a decent shower. I understand they are on tank /rain water but don’t charge so much for a bathroom if you can’t actually use it. Finally the water pressure was so poor it kept making a banging noise. It scared the kids everytime a tap of toilet was flushed.
