Review by hotel critic
Our family's stay at Bay Motel was a delightful experience that we'll cherish. The warm and welcoming atmosphere set against the backdrop of beautiful harbour views truly made our stay special. The owners, Rhonda and Jeff, were incredibly helpful and accommodating, making us feel right at home. One of the highlights for us was the range of activities available nearby. We are avid hikers, and exploring the stunning trails on Stewart Island was a real treat for the whole family. We tried our hand at fishing in the crystal-clear waters, adding an exciting element to our vacation. The proximity to the golf course allowed us to enjoy a leisurely round together, creating lasting memories. We look forward to returning and exploring more of what this charming destination has to offer.
