Great location just a few minutes from Thames. I would stay there again. Cottages were well set up with pleasant maritime themed decor. Comfortable beds. Up to date bathroom. Sunny cottage needs a new stovetop as it is old & takes ages to cook on & is therefore not really a full kitchen. One of the 2 cottages I paid for was rather musty because it didn't have windows in the bedroom to get the sun like the other cottage so needs a dehumidifier at least & a bit of renovation. ##### SIMONE Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dave Sep 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Nice location slightly out of town, so very quiet - unfortunately, this made me more aware of the creaking floor every time I moved, it made me feel sorry for the people below on the ground floor. The unit was generally run down, with a shower head at shoulder height (I'm pretty standard height, 5 foot 10) and slippery stairs to access. Might be a lovely overall experience in the summer months. ##### Dave Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia Dec 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is located directly on the coastal highway with excellent views of the bay. It's a quaint little property that is tucked into Thames. The property emphasizes eco-friendly protocals, which means that each unit is only alotted 40 liters of hot water at a time. This results in a 20 minute wait between showers. This wasn't a problem for us; however, larger families might struggle with this. ##### Patricia ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrew Aug 21, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities Been coming here for nearly 10yrs now and its in a steady decline. Only 1/2 a roll of toilet paper, no tissues anymore and alot of dust on the bench. Needed a good clean and a think about how much more cost cutting before you lose your old customers who expect better. Lucky its in a beautiful location!

The shower in the unit we ended up in didnt drain properly so you ended up almost flooding the bathroom following a shower. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Apr 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jayda Mar 13, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service The location was good, close to town, nice grounds well kept. Room needed a deep clean - couch was dirty and smelly, duvet covers needed a good wash. Some units have a neat views of the sea, some units look over the back of a house. All very average ##### Jayda Stayed 1 night in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Troy Mar 10, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We had the front chalet which was clean, tidy, well equipped with a comfortable bed.

Definitely needs an aircon, after a long trip we wanted to take a nap and the fans just didn’t cut it in 28 degree weather. Parking seems to be a problem, they should maybe think about painting parking lines as some guests cannot park straight. Amazing sun set views, friendly staff, convenient location. ##### Desiree Stayed 1 night in Jan 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Barry Dec 21, 2021 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Extremely pleasant situation with well kept lawns and gardens. ##### Barry Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### S Sep 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great host , extremely clean, overall a good comfortable stay ##### S Stayed 1 night in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew Jul 30, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ok ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 25, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was beautiful ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 29, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Have stayed here more than 4 times.

We found it to be comfortable, basic accommodation with a kitchenette. It has a nice location with views over the water and is just outside the main Thames shopping area. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0757A7A2EB21ADDDD3067EAE3FEC7A27C88E70371622263868016.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/35A00C07F7C656BE5E55DDFF2940E145FA935C461622263867037.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in May 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The White Elephant Accommodation - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Motueka-Hotels-The-White-Elephant-Accommodation.h9624615.Hotel-Information) > > [Discovery Countrytime Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Omarama-Hotels-Discovery-Countrytime-Hotel.h1145773.Hotel-Information) > > [The Blue Pub](https://www.expedia.ca/Methven-Hotels-The-Blue-Pub.h9628177.Hotel-Information) > > [Horse and Jockey Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Horse-And-Jockey-Inn.h29357900.Hotel-Information) > > [Abel Tasman Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Marahau-Hotels-Abel-Tasman-Lodge.h20040118.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Village Chalets Home of Kiwipaka](https://www.expedia.ca/Waitomo-Caves-Hotels-Kiwi-Paka-Waitomo.h19526472.Hotel-Information) > > [Monty's self-contained unit](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Montys-Self-Contained-Unit.h37984382.Hotel-Information) > > [Maple Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Wanaka-Hotels-Maple-Lodge.h1862628.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Turangi Leisure Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Turangi-Hotels-Turangi-Leisure-Lodge.h61338998.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fern & Thistle Luxury Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Benhar-Hotels-The-Fern-Thistle-Accommodation.h55531272.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Rivers Boutique Lodge Ohakune](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Two-Rivers-Ohakune.h109320695.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Motorlodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Turangi-Hotels-Parklands-Motorlodge.h918774.Hotel-Information) > > [JetPark Hotel Hamilton Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Jet-Park-Hotel-Hamilton-Airport.h4281130.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside Homestead Waitangi](https://www.expedia.ca/Haruru-Hotels-Riverside-Homestead-Waitangi.h78742745.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waterlily Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Waihi-Hotels-The-Waterlily-Gardens.h21518126.Hotel-Information) > > [Avon Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hawera-Hotels-Avon-Motel.h9629592.Hotel-Information) > > [Absolute Bliss](https://www.expedia.ca/Paihia-Hotels-Absolute-Bliss.h9626254.Hotel-Information) > > [Somersal Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Somersal-Bed-Breakfast.h4528347.Hotel-Information) > > [Sundowner Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Greymouth-Hotels-Sundowner-Motel.h19166307.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Kuiti-Hotels-Waitomo-Lodge.h72941486.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Lodge Okataina](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Okataina-Hotels-Lakes-Lodge-Okataina.h88669411.Hotel-Information) > > [Stopforths Premium Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Hokitika-Hotels-Stopforths-Premium-Accommodation.h23236034.Hotel-Information) > > [Sennen House](https://www.expedia.ca/Picton-Hotels-Sennen-House.h7120592.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [Mt Cook View Motel - Fox Glacier](https://www.expedia.ca/Fox-Glacier-Hotels-Mt-Cook-View-Motel.h7275200.Hotel-Information) > > [Ohakune TOP 10 Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Ohakune-TOP-10-Holiday-Park.h33230446.Hotel-Information) > > [The Matarangi B & B](https://www.expedia.ca/Matarangi-Hotels-The-Matarangi-B-B.h97053938.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruapehu Country Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Ruapehu-Country-Lodge.h9625899.Hotel-Information)
