The wonderful apartment is located very close to the harbour and extraordinary! The owner was very friendly and helpful. Our apartment had two separate bedrooms, a large living room with a kitchen and a nice bathroom. The terrace was also very beautiful. We enjoyed our stay very much and hope to return one day to this unique Motel.

Our host Ted met us at the ferry on arrival (we had pre arranged this) and took us on a short drive to introduce us to Oban. Our studio was spacious with all the facilities needed for our 2 night stay. We arrived late afternoon to an already warm room. Views from the balcony of Half Moon Bay in the late afternoon sun were splendid. Fresh milk was provided and appreciated. The Motel is an easy walk to town and to walking tracks. Ted and Donna were friendly, welcoming and helpful. Ted gave us tips on a shortcut to Golden Bay and pointed us to places to eat. He also took us back to the ferry when it was time to go - then went above and beyond by delivering back to me my charger and cables that I left behind. We wholeheartedly recommend The Bay Motel.

A great hotel with a fantastic location. The room is better than the pictures with a fridge and small kitchen area. Highly recommended.

Stunning and clever concept. Lived up to expectations as a very memorable experience. A lot of thought has gone into these purepods, and into all the little extras that come with it. Wish we had stayed an extra night or two. If you're into tech and off grid living you're going to love it. Barbecuing our steaks on the balcony with a nice glass of red as the sun went down was one of the highlights of our NZ trip.

We loved staying here - the location was magical and the house was comfortable and homely. Everything was clean and the house was well set-up to self-cater. We appreciated Amanda meeting us at the ferry and giving us the use of a car while we stayed on the island. Amanda was very responsive to communication too. Highly recommended.

    Location overlooking the bay. Proximity to the terminal and town. High end accommodation. Awesome hosts. The in-house restaurant was a highlight showcasing both the local cuisine and home grown vegetables and fruit. Nothing was to much for our hosts who really made our stay a wonderful experience.

    The accommodation was superb. Excellent location. Very tidy and clean. Everything you need to cook or an easy walk to the township for dinner. We only stayed two nights but would have been comfortable for much longer. The owners were really helpful and responsive.

    The motel manager, Donna, is so lovely and she definitely made our stay memorable. The facilities are incredible and location is great. Surrounded by birds, bush and a minute walk to Oban centre. I just wish that I could stay there longer. Our whole group including our toddler had one of the best holidays. Amazing.

    From the minute Peter picked us up at the ferry, he and Iris were ultimate hosts. Kowhai Lodge is welcoming, fully stocked (even a bowl of apples for the parrots) and you could not ask for better accommodations. Thank you Iris and Peter!

    We loved our stay on Stewart Island, staying at Kowhai Lane with Peter and Iris. The accommodation was fantastic in every way and the Information supplied by our hosts was comprehensive, their knowledge of the island and it's history was shared with great enthusiasm. Our visit to Ulva Island with Peter as our guide was a highlight of our stay. Great friendly hosts!
