The perfect Jacks Bay retreat
We really enjoyed our stay, the cabin is a perfect base to explore the Catlins and to have a relaxing break.The cabin itself is really lovely with a well equipped kitchen, great shower pressure (and hairdryer) and comfortable furnishings.

Curio Bay Salt House Motel
The executive apartment was very large, comfortable and immaculately clean. The deck had beautiful ocean views - we saw a fur seal and penguins right from our deck. It's within walking distance of the penguin viewing area and petrified forest. It is a perfect place to enjoy Curio Bay.

Surfinn Eco Cottage - Papatowai Cottage
We had a very good time in Papatowai. The Surfinn Eco Cottage is a good starting point for many activities around. We loved the room upstairs wit the nice view on the river side.

Surat Bay Lodge & Backpackers Hostel
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean, comfortable and well equipped. Lovely beach feel. Beautiful part of the country. We were blessed to see seals swimming in the bay from the deck at the front of the property and a stunning sunset.

Cosy, comfortable cabin in the heart of The Catlins
Ray was very friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable and warm. Didn’t realise it was separate from the bathroom although that was in the description. No sign of a hot tub? Would be better in the summer to enjoy the deck.
