Kaikoura Quality Suites
Pleasant accommodation once we had done a bit of diy on the shower so it could be used without spraying the whole bathroom.

Blue Seas Motel
The facilities were well kept. You're parking spot was right in front of your room. The only gripe is the town does not have enough parking spaces and you have to use a paid lot.

Kaikoura Luxury Apartments
Our apartment was so neat and spotlessly clean. It had a very comfortable bed and everything we could need but it was quite dated and definitely not “luxury”.
