About this property

Wake up to stunning views of the Kaikoura Mountains and the sea at Panorama Motel. Our units are all ensuite and smoke-free. Every unit opens out onto either a patio area with outdoor seating or onto its own private balcony, to allow our guests to enjoy the panoramic views. Inside we have Sky TV, free Wi-fi, a kitchenette with a hob, microwave, fridge and very comfortable beds. Parking is off-street, with enough space to park your boat or trailer. We are pet friendly, and love to welcome the whole family. Panorama Motel is at the quiet end of town, but is still close to activities like the Dolphin Encounter, the golf courses and it’s just a short 5 minute drive from the train station. Guests can order a continental breakfast, or make use of BBQ facilities and the guest laundry.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.
