Showers were excellent, plenty of hot water and great pressure.
Great position when starting or finishing the Paparoa track, and close to Pub and Cafe for meals if you don't want to cook yourself.

A stunning day at Punakaiki, the board wak overlooking the sea gives great views of the rock formations, the sea crashing and the bush. There is a wonderful new information centre nearly completed with helpful staff to give local advice on walks etc. Such a great stop lots to see and do.

The Pancake Rocks walking track was fantastic and the Blow Holes were amazing. The Truman Track through native bush was awesome. Cafe reasonable and pub good but expensive food and drinks. Spectacular rock formations all around the area.Raincoats recommended - you never know when it will rain.

We loved our visit to Punakaika rocks and worth a detour. We liked the house except we are too old for having to go up and down steep stairs during the night. We were not warned about this.
We ate at the local scenic hotel and this was reasonable and pleasant

The Pancake Rocks are overwhelming beautiful, almost an alien place on earth. We went there at the end of the day (low tide) and came back in the morning (high tide). The power of the waves was incredible.

What a delightful natural attraction - the pancake rocks are incredible. The garden tavern is very welcoming and the food was good. We stayed in the cute beachfront cabin and could walk to the beach, the pancake rocks, garden tavern and info centre from there. The Pancake Rocks Cafe needs a good shake up, the pancakes were terrible - undercooked and the banana was bad.

Great option for a short one night, or even longer stay.
Great option for a short one night, or even longer stay. The small compound of self contained units was very lovely. Even though all the cottages were occupied, it was peaceful and I could have sat out on the deck for much longer to enjoy the sound of the waves on the beach. We ate at the main hotel/restaurant in a lovely secluded garden. Even though it's right on the main road, the garden gives you a sense of peaceful tranquility. There's not much to do in the area, but for sure a 1 or 2 night stay is perfect here. We had room #10 & it was absolutely perfect
The bed was very comfy, room was spacious and the location was excellent. It is not right in Punakaiki itself (where the tavern is), but is much closer to Pancakes rocks than lots of other options. It's also a nice walk down to the Tavern - takes a bout 30 minutes. The room had a balcony overlooking the bush, so it was very peaceful. A man who said he was the cleaner greeted us a at check-in. He was very friendly and welcoming.
The new owner of the hotel, Alexander was really welcoming and helpful. The location on the beach was stunning. Although we didn’t use the restaurant, it’s menu is comprehensive and the bay window looks right onto the ocean, just lovely. Room 214 is especially good with a balcony overlooking the ocean. The nearby Pancake Rocks are a great short visit.
Wonderful location in Punakaiki. About a 10 minute walk to the beach and 30min walk to the Pancake Rocks. We stayed in the lodge portion which is similar to backpacker style with shared facilities. Beds were comfortable and everything was clean. Good place to base yourself either before or after the Paparoa track.
