Kaka Retreat Motel, Stewart Island 4 stars

Half-moon Bay

Nestled amongst peaceful native bushland, Kaka Retreat Motel, Stewart Island offers spacious modern suites with kitchenette, flat-screen TV and free Wi-Fi. Free transfers to and from the airport and ferry terminal are available. Everything was so wonderful. Donna and Ted are just great. Picked us up from the wharf, showed us around, even gave us a free ride to the start of the hiking trail (The Great Walk). Highly recommend.

The Bay Motel 4 stars

Half-moon Bay

With panoramic views of the Tasman Sea, The Bay Motel overlooks Halfmoon Bay on Stewart Island. It features a nearby golf course, a free shuttle service and free private parking on site.

The Bay Motel is a 5-minutes’ walk from shops and restaurants; its location allows many hiking and trekking possibilities in the native forests of Rakiura National Park. Spacious comfortable and clean rooms, the property is in a great location surrounded by nature but very close to the town. The hosts were so friendly helpful and attentive made our stay much better just with their great service.
