Location and rooms were clean and modern

Le cadre luxuriant de l’hôtel niché entre mer et montagne enneigée. Golf entretenu
La douche bouchée ce qui implique un manque de suivi de l’état de propreté du personnel. Accumulation de cheveux dans la grille d’évacuation et remontée d’odeurs a la fin d’une douche. J’ai du déboucher par manque de personnel, en repos a ce moment là.
A great spot with a nice relaxing view and friendly staff. This is the 2nd time we have stayed and its a great spot just out of Kaikoura town.
cat at property was good vibes , golf course was awesome!
nothing
The lady who booked us in was very helpful. The room was lovely and clean and the bed very comfortable. The view s are amazing. Snow on the mountains as you drive in and the sea and golf course outside your bedroom door!
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
Location
Restaurant was just ok
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
Puikus vaizdas, labai patogi ir švari vieta. Nuostabi šeimininkė
Lovely location with views across the golf course and out to sea.
Great location
La situation sur le golf superbe et paisible Le diner très bon et sympathique peu de tables .très cosy Le restaurant ne fonctionne je crois que les vendredi samedi et dimanche soirs !!
Tout était bien !
Nice golf course view.
When we booked, it indicated that the cost included my child., but when we checked in to pay, the staff tried to charge extra for my child. I need to find my booking information to tell them that is wrong.
Luxe accommodation
The view was amazing and we slept really well
Ótima vista
Everything it was very comfortable and the view was lovely
There was nothing to dislike! It would have been nice to eat at the restaurant but a chef is allowed to take time off!
Loved the separate lounge area.
Felt it was overpriced with very small room
Wunderbare Lage, sehr sauber und ruhig. Wir haben es sehr genossen.

The lawn mower on the golf course one morning at 7:30am.
De ligging.
Ontbijt stelde niet zoveel voor, te duur.
Tout était parfait ! Le lodge sur le golf très propre , spacieux et confortable Le golf très mignon et correct Le dîner exceptionnel au Graze avec une serveuse adorable L’accueil à notre arrivée et à notre départ
Rien
Good golf course. Nice staff
Limited opening hours
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
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!
Dinner was superb. Great location.
Bedroom french doors needed net curtains so people outside cannot see in when the blackout curtains are open.
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.
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.
We really enjoy staying here and playing a round of golf. Great rooms and great views.
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
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.
Dinner was very delicious
No kitchen but the price of the room reflected that
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.
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.
Fabulous location. Lovely golf course with awesome sea views. Comfortable bed :)
Goed bed, schoon, fijne locatie
Niks
Lokatie en gastvrijheid
Onaangename geur in de kamer. Waarschijnlijk natte vloerbedekking.
Ease of communication, cleanliness, friendliness of staff, quality of bedding/ towels, very quiet.
Nothing really
Location was fantastic, as were the staff
Peace and the view
Everything was fine
Nice experience staying in golf course
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!
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
Beautiful and stunning. An amazing view from our room. Very peaceful.
The view and proximity to Kaikoura
Not having a kitchenette sink
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
You can stroll on the lush green golf course and watch the sunset over the sea.
Room is small
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!
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.
Great location, very friendly owners, and very clean . Highly recommended!
Beautiful property and well maintained
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.
Very quiet with magnificent views. Very peaceful. Room was very clean and everything worked very well.
Sehr schöne Lage, sehr guter Service
Keine Mängel
Been there before and liked the place.Has a 9 hole golf course which I had 3 games of golf
The only problem is we should have stayed longer
Great friendly staff and views!
Out of town
It’s location was magical and nice and quiet
No issues
Stunning quite location with amazing views
Maybe a little bonus could be a complimentary round of golf for your visit
The staff was so welcoming and helpful. The stay was great.
Great location amazing helpful staff great accessible course
The facilities, and golf course
N/A
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!
Amazing service, great golf course, room was exceptional!
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.
