enjoyed a short break at a cozy unit with impressive views of Kaikoura Bay. Clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. Friendly staff and quick check-in/out. Would stay here again.

lacking important cooking utensils

This motel is in a great location, close to local attractions and just across from the beachfront. It is also conveniently located just out of the main town centre and very close to 2 good restaurants. The rooms are comfortable and offer wonderful views of the ocean and mountains. The staff is friendly and helpful, and there are options for bedding arrangements for larger groups.

The kitchen and ensuite could benefit from modernization.

Great location with stunning mountain vistas and a short drive to hiking trails. Well-equipped kitchen for a cozy stay. Comfortable and warm Fraemohs apartment. Reasonable price.

Felt so relaxed, no reason to complain.

We loved the stunning beach views from our spacious hotel room, and the option to cook if we wanted to. The location was great, just a short walk to the pub and we enjoyed a pleasant walk along the beach in the morning, where we even spotted some sunning seals.

We felt very relaxed during our stay and had no complaints whatsoever.

I had a fantastic stay at a beachfront property with a sea view from my balcony. the room was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities I needed, including a comfortable bed and a wonderful shower. the owners were friendly and provided great recommendations for local restaurants. I also loved the fact that the towels were changed daily and they were white and fluffy. the location was perfect, with stunning views, lots of sun, and a quiet atmosphere at night. It was definitely a great experience.

No issues. 😊

the owner went above and beyond, helping us with a dinner reservation and providing great recommendations. the room was beautifully refurbished, with a cozy atmosphere and comfortable furnishings, including armchairs and outdoor furniture. the sliding glass door offered stunning views of the bay and mountains. the peaceful location away from the city ensured a quiet and relaxing experience. the staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall amenities were superb. I would definitely consider staying here again.

Shower curtain didn't fit well.

We had a wonderful time at Panorama Motel during our recent stay. The location was breathtaking, with stunning sea views and a close proximity to one of the largest seal colonies in the world. The kitchen was well-equipped, making our stay comfortable and convenient. The cozy Fraemohs home design added a warm and charming touch to our experience. The queen bed was comfortable and we slept well. the motel had a rustic charm and everything was in good working order. We would happily return to Panorama Motel, especially considering the great value for the price we paid.

Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

Great Easter experience with stunning views, beautiful beach just steps away, and a cozy room. Loved having a spotless room with new fittings and bedding, and a super comfortable bed. The location was incredible, close enough to town to not miss out but far enough away for a peaceful stay. The milk offered upon check-in was a nice touch.

The room was slightly small for three people, making it a bit cramped with our luggage. It would have been better to have more space to walk around without bumping into things.

We stayed at a motel with an impressive view of the bay. the unit was clean and well-appointed, with comfortable sitting chairs. the staff were friendly and check-in and out was quick and easy. the location was convenient, with an easy walk to a nearby restaurant. a great experience at Panorama Motel.

Couldn't find any faults at all. 😊

the view of the bay and mountains at panorama motel was stunning, and the room was relaxing with a functional kitchenette. the bed was huge and comfy, and the wifi was great. even during high season, the motel was peaceful and quiet.

Kitchen equipment could use an upgrade.

the kitchen in the unit was well-equipped and cozy, with everything we needed for our stay. the warmth and comfort of the timber apartment made it a pleasant place to relax. the view from the room was fantastic, overlooking the bay and stunning mountains. the location was convenient, with shops and eateries just a short walk away. the staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome. it was a great experience and I would happily return to this motel.

Nothing negative to say. 😊
