From the warm welcome on arrival to the best wishes sending us on our way we really enjoyed our stay at Oamaru beach. We had a fabulous seaview from our spacious well equipped spotless unit. Our hosts Baz and Col were the best - from letting us use their kayaks to finding us fresh fish. We will be be back!

What a stunning location. We had a cabin on the beach and it was perfect. Full kitchen with excellent quality cooking and dinnerware. Lovely living room and verandah to take in the views. Owners are very accommodating and friendly. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Well equipped unit with amazing views.
Our family loves staying here when in Oamaru Bay. Great location and units are well equipped although a little tired but that doesn't bother us. My husband is quite tall (6ft) and the beds are a bit short for him. Well equipped kitchen and the 2nd room with 2 single beds are comfy. Pull out sofa is a great bonus. A fabulous view. We'll be back!
