Omau Foulwinds accommodation
Pleasant surprise, Pamela was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great scenic spot. The tavern being within walking distance a bonus even though we didnt visit. Rooms were well appointed but felt it needed a deep clean, heater was covered in dust.
Breakfast room was a great set up as a shared space with more than enough for a continental breakfast. Dudnt use the spa but nice that Pamela let me know. Loved meeting their friendly dog Meeka. Would recommend as a restful escape in a NZ west coast setting.
Lovely clean unit. The hot tub was a great addition especially as we were the only ones there. You can see areas that need maintenance. The breakfast was great and plenty of it.
Quaint cottages in gorgeous location near fur seal colony, breathtaking views and charming neighbourhood. The host was friendly, accomodating, we really enjoyed the use of the hot tub and breakfast. Would highly recommend staying here.
The property location is lovely. Close to the coastal walking track and the fur seal bay. The gal at checkin was friendly and helpful. The room was large and very clean. The bed was comfortable. The refrigerator in the unit was very tiny and the freezer wouldn’t even freeze our small ice packs overnight, which was unfortunate. The breakfast is fairly basic (cereal, toast, yogurt, fruit), but the breakfast room is a lovely way to meet fellow travelers. The units are very quiet and the bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again
Omau Settlers Lodge was a wonderful discovery
Recommended by another property in Tauranga Bay, we were blown away by the hospitality of Pam (the owner )
Great lodging , fabulous breakfasts included in rate, and proximity to Cape Foulwind and the seal colony made it even better . So glad we chose this resort over staying in Westport . Highly recommend this lodging
A beautiful place with a great owner. We had one night stay on our trip through South Island, but it feels like at home, the place is peaceful and quiet, the little detailed deco in the room is unique and home feeling. Breakfast room is such a great idea to meet with the people who staying there. Nice scenic walks nearby, certainly will stay again next time back to the area.
A lovely, comfortable room in a lovely location. But the free breakfast was disappointing - uninspiring ingredients and weak coffee. To be honest I'd rather have a toaster and cafetiere/plunger in my room and make my own...
