Esther and the rest of the staff are incredibly kind and welcoming - I feel so lucky to have stayed here during my visit to the Catlins region. There are also plenty of sea lions just a short walk away that you can observe from a distance!

Surfinn Eco Cottage - Papatowai Cottage
Papatowai Otago
This cottage includes a garden and laundry facilities.
Booked for 5 nights, stayed 1 during the peak holiday season. A number of issues around cleaning following the last guests and a loud internal water pump next to one bedroom. Far from ideal. Property wasn’t as expected for the price.

Travelocity Verified Review
"Great view of the beach from the accommodation and easy access to the beach for walks. Rooms are well lit so you can read at night easily with lots of power points to charge your appliances.
As this place is in Curio Bay, it’s recommended to bring your own food as grocery shops and dining out options are scarce. Check in instructions were easy to follow. A relaxing stay with the bonus of location being beachfront with uninterrupted beach view."
