This was one of our favorite stays in New Zealand. The setting was great - right across from the (amazing and free) Glowworm Dell and walking distance to town. Also beach convenient. Hokitika was a great little town and the kind host had movies you could borrow, which was nice in the evening.

Hokitiki beach resort

The location was great 70m to a great beach, amenities were good. The wooden chalet looked a little dated from the outside but inside was clean comfortable and well equipped. There was a comfortable queen sized bed, sofa and kitchenette with a good shower that remained hot. There were chairs on the veranda (just a small point no table!) There were Alpacas, goats, rabbits and chickens penned nearby for the kids and a 70m walk to the beach. We only stayed one night, but found it well situated to shops and town. Highly recommend

Nice quiet location which has direct access to the beach. It is very close to the Glowworm Dell walkway too. It is farther away from the downtown area but not too bad as the town is not very big.

Right across from the Glow Worm Dell, and easy access to the beach. You can't really see the beach from the room, but you can see the ocean and it's a quick walk down to the beach. Nice to have the deck and nice garden. Internet was not great. Otherwise a very nice stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location is excellent but sadly our room looked like it had not been updated for at least 25 years. The bottom of the fridge door was rusty as were the taps in the bathroom and glass/metal unit also in the bathroom.The very dated shower cubicle only had a badly fitting curtain so that the bathroom floor became wet very quickly. In the bathroom the wooden wall on the left hand side was sticky with toothpaste marks. The carpet and furniture looked like it has not been replaced since the 1970’s. Would not recommend this motel which was more expensive than much nicer places.
