The location of this motel was fantastic. We loved the ocean, mountain and starry night views. We were able to walk to a restaurant for dinner, which was so nice after a long day of driving. The owner was welcoming and funny. I think I made a new friend. The rooms were spacious, well appointed and clean. I wish we could have stayed longer. Maybe on our next trip...

Very good stay at Cape Foulwind..

A one night stay but wish it was longer so we could walk the seacliff trails and sit on our verandah and admire the views. A small unit but it had everything we needed. Breakfast was provided in the breakfast room. The usual cereal toast and coffee suited us fine. A good opportunity to meet some interesting fellow travellers.

The units were quiet, and warm. Bed very comfy and a table to write at is a bonus. Great pub next door for food. Breakfasts are continental, but home baked bread is good! The carpet is worn from sun exposure in some units. The host is great with knowledge of the area and general conversation.

Omau Foulwinds accommodation

Pleasant surprise, Pamela was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great scenic spot. The tavern being within walking distance a bonus even though we didnt visit. Rooms were well appointed but felt it needed a deep clean, heater was covered in dust. Breakfast room was a great set up as a shared space with more than enough for a continental breakfast. Dudnt use the spa but nice that Pamela let me know. Loved meeting their friendly dog Meeka. Would recommend as a restful escape in a NZ west coast setting.

Great stay, beautiful setting

The property location is lovely. Close to the coastal walking track and the fur seal bay. The gal at checkin was friendly and helpful. The room was large and very clean. The bed was comfortable. The refrigerator in the unit was very tiny and the freezer wouldn’t even freeze our small ice packs overnight, which was unfortunate. The breakfast is fairly basic (cereal, toast, yogurt, fruit), but the breakfast room is a lovely way to meet fellow travelers. The units are very quiet and the bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again
