Located on 10 acres of gardens, Golfcourse Road Chalets and Lodge with lovely lake, mountain or golf course views. Just 4 minutes’ drive from Lake Wanaka, the property features free WiFi and barbecue facilities. Sandra and her mom are SO friendly and helpful. We loved our stay. She made it feel like home. The living room was nice to relax in a rainy day. The room was big and clean. Would definitely stay again.

Set within 600 metres of Dunedin School of Dentistry and less than 1 km of Olveston, Sahara Deluxe Studios offers rooms in Dunedin. Popular points of interest nearby include Toitu Otago Settlers Museum, The Octagon and Dunedin Railway Station. Otago Business Park is 700 metres away and University of Otago is 500 metres from the motel. I stayed after having a surgery and all of the staff were so supportive and lovely. I always stay at the Sahara when in Dunedin.

All guest rooms at the motel come with a seating area, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a kitchen, a dining area and a private bathroom with free toiletries, a shower and a hairdryer. All units will provide guests with a fridge. Top 10 says it all. Best overall place to find the peace and quiet of a small town whether you are a family traveling, or just want to park your camper van. Plenty of fun for the kids and lots to attract adults as well. The single cottages are like being home. Lovely little town too proud of its heritage ...
