Guest Reviews

• Leigh (10/5): Golfing in Kaikoura - It backed on to rhe golf course, so the boyfriend was happy. It had great views all around. Its a 10ish min drive in to town, but not really a problem as we already knew that
• Sue (7/5): Nice stay but only for 1 night, would not recommend any longer - Location Restaurant was just ok
• Gyslène (6/5): Sans intérêt - Vue sympa sur le petit parcours de golf Le matelas était complètement affaissé. Services restauration et petits déjeuners non fonctionnels et le site est très isolé

• Ronald (9/5): - Good golf course. Nice staff Limited opening hours
• geoff (5/5): No restaurant unless rebooked - closed Tuesday and Wednesday . Basically a cheap looking small motel room so to call thi - Great location on nine hole golf course Our room had a ranch slider but no windows that could open and no air con so we had to sleep with the ranch slider open for ventilation
• Raeleigh (9/5): - We had a lovely stay. Rooms were comfortable and very quiet. Slept in as the blockout curtains were too good! Great for bike riding and hiking around the area. We are not keen golfers, but for anyone who is, the course looks great and well kept. Only a small thing, but would have preferred a small couch rather than the two chairs, but that's just our preference!
• Marisa (10/5): Great stay as usual -
• John (9/5): -
• Mike (5/5): Lovely quiet location, a car drive from Kaikoura itself. - Quiet location outside Kaikoura, with lovely views across the golf course and out to the ocean. Good that they provided bowls and cutlery /toaster etc, albeit limited, for a an element of self catering if needed. Limited facilities on site, shower over bath, room a bit small.
• Richard (8/5): Enjoyed the stay, dinner was superb. Recommended. - Dinner was superb. Great location. Bedroom french doors needed net curtains so people outside cannot see in when the blackout curtains are open.
• Joe (10/5): -
• Boris (10/5): Great accommodation - Absolutely amazing accommodation! The room was very spacious and clean, and the air conditioning worked perfectly on an extremely hot day. We really enjoyed our stay — thank you so much! Would definitely recommend.
• Daph (10/5): - We really enjoy staying here and playing a round of golf. Great rooms and great views.
• Barbara (9/5): - Fabulous welcome from Jen B. Played 72 holes in 2 days. No food available on site but short drive to lovely restaurants. would stay again. Very peaceful, clean and fab views
• Chad (10/5): Great view friendly staff and the golf course was good to play on - Dinner was very delicious No kitchen but the price of the room reflected that
• James (1/5): This is one of the most beautiful locations in the country, - There was nothing to like The website is wholly embellished for something that is no better than a concrete block motel. We paid $270 for a superior king - which was 2singles pushed together. They can’t even be bothered to put a queen or king mattress on these 2 singles .. The ‘kitchenette’ is a crappy shelf over a small fridge which doesn’t fit properly. No bench or sink at all. The room was a dark hole, with in room lightening inadequate for normal requirements. We were kept waiting for 15mins at reception with no apology when she did arrive, not content with overcharging (the website quotes $199) they also wanted $20 each for any golf we may have wanted to play. When we requested to see the room first she was very ticked off and responded with a sigh and the comment ‘it’s a done deal’ - clearly not interested in customer service if any kind. The shower is a built in cubbyhole and the bath looked to be for children. The bathroom cabinet door does not close properly and the main power knob on the heater fell off when moved - so no way to regulate the temperature except the on off switch. Outdoor furniture broken 2 seater with a dirty small squab on it.
• DONGLIANG (10/5): -
• Megan (10/5): Excellent - Location was great, well set out, golf on your doorstep. Owners and staff super friendly and helpful. Meal was great at the restaurant too. Highly recommend. We will definitely go back.
• Massimo (8/5): Peaceful stay with beautiful views - Koura Bay Golf Resort is a very quiet place inside a golf course, with a beautiful and relaxing view. The staff were warm and welcoming. The room was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. Parking was easy and convenient. A great choice if you want to relax. I don't remember nothing of unpleasure.
• Lauren (10/5): -
• Saleema (9/5): Love this spot we will return again - Fabulous location. Lovely golf course with awesome sea views. Comfortable bed :)
• Rosa (10/5): - Goed bed, schoon, fijne locatie Niks
• Kitty (9/5): - Lokatie en gastvrijheid Onaangename geur in de kamer. Waarschijnlijk natte vloerbedekking.
• Artur (10/5): Tolle Unterkunft in ruhiger Umgebung -
• Stephen (9/5): Good value, comfortable and peaceful- we’ll definitely stay again - Ease of communication, cleanliness, friendliness of staff, quality of bedding/ towels, very quiet. Nothing really
• Fei (5/5): -
• Emma (9/5): -
• Mark (10/5): Excellent - Location was fantastic, as were the staff
• Camilla (10/5): -
• Chong (8/5): - Nice experience staying in golf course
• Kenneth (9/5): Relaxing - Peace and the view Everything was fine
• Jay (9/5): -
• Sally (8/5): Loved it - will be back 😎 - Beautiful situation and views. Very helpful wonderful staff. Lovely tricky 9 hole gold course. Really comfortable bed. Absolutely amazing meal in the on-site restaurant. The restaurant wasn’t opened one of the nights we thought it was going to be. No lounging area in room, just a wee dining area, small kitchenette, and bed. Had to look out for a bit of 🦆💩 so didn’t stand in it!
• Jinghua (9/5): -
• Kate (10/5): - Room was clean and comfortable. Felt very welcomed by staff. Had a beautiful view of the ocean, hills and golf course. Easy drive into town
• MoonKang (9/5): -
• Trisha (10/5): Stunning views stunning accommodation - Beautiful and stunning. An amazing view from our room. Very peaceful.
• Johann (9/5): -
• Kim (7/5): Enjoyable - The view and proximity to Kaikoura Not having a kitchenette sink
• Susan (9/5): Rust en luxe voor een hele goede prijs ! - Een prachtige locatie midden in de natuur met uitzicht over golf baan en daarachter de baai van Kaikoura. Totale stilte en rust. Slechts 10 kamers. Kosten nog moeite is gespaard qua gebruik van mooie materialen. Inrichting was zeer modern en smaakvol. Alles was nieuw en schoon. Wij kwamen hier echt tot rust. Niets
• Lisa (8/5): - You can stroll on the lush green golf course and watch the sunset over the sea. Room is small
• Adam (10/5): Beautiful place, good for one and more nigjts - Beautiful place. The golf field and at the same time the view from the window is gorgeous. Good room, nice bathroom. Location is outside the city but honestly I think this is a plus. Check in process was slightly more problematic than in other hotels/stays in New Zealand. Other hotels are more elastic and more thinking of guests comfort in this matter than we experienced here. But this doesn't change the fact that we still recommend stayig here!
• Audrey (10/5): Excellent - La localisation du lieu est très agréable, il y a une belle vue sur l’océan. Le personnel était excrément gentil et la chambre était très grande et propre.
• Georgina (9/5): -
• Cathie (8/5): -
• Chaney (10/5): Very relaxed and enjoyable setting! - Great location, very friendly owners, and very clean . Highly recommended!
• Olatunbosun (10/5): Loved the view and rooms were looked after well - Beautiful property and well maintained
• Ross (10/5): Great place to stay at Kaikoura. - Quiet. Close to amenities. Comfortable for hotel/motel style accommodation. Separate larger lounge space if required. Restaurant only open on certain days during our stay. Found alternate close by - Donegals - and would highly recommend. Lovely outlook. Restaurant and bar not open during our stay. Just having the bar open for a while would be great.
• Debbie (10/5): -
• Teri (10/5): -
• Erina (10/5): The perfect place and hope to come back again - Very quiet with magnificent views. Very peaceful. Room was very clean and everything worked very well.
• Lutz (10/5): Sehr schöner Aufenthalt - Sehr schöne Lage, sehr guter Service Keine Mängel

• Sophie (10/5): Fantastic! - I loved the location and view. Just beautiful and the price was great value. It was our favourite place to stay on our whole trip. Everything was spotless and relaxing. Nothing at all. We will definitely be back!
• Georgia (10/5): Amazing stay! 🤩 - Amazing service, great golf course, room was exceptional!
• Mjrgriffin (9/5): Fantastic! Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, modern and comfortable room. - The location between the mountains and the coast was absolutely amazing. The staff member we saw onsite was so friendly and gave great local recommendations. There wasn't anything to dislike really, I think some other reviewers need to realize this isn't an inner city hotel with 24hour facilities. The club offers a limited menu but the food is really good and the hours reflect the remote location.
• Johnathan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Brian (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mayuri (10/5): Amazing accomodation with the view - Me and my husband enjoyed the stay at Koura Bay Gold Resort. Amazing hospitality and very spacious room with beautiful view. Everything was above our expectations. We enjoyed watching sunrise from our room which was just mind blowing. We will definitely visit this place again and recommend this to everyone 😊
• Bailey (10/5): Exceptional - Stunning view of the sunrise and very kind and friendly staff members
• Jan (9/5): Awesome views and super quiet - We loved the peace and tranquility and fabulous views over the gold course out to the ocean. We are rural people and struggle to find quiet accomodation. Loved our stay. Wasn't a lot of space to make our breaky.
• Tyrone (8/5): Very good -
• Sharon (9/5): Great place to stay - Comfortable, clean and spacious The only thing I could suggest would be some directions to the property and rooms for people arriving in the dark /after 6 when reception is shut,
