Beach Lodge Motel Dunedin
A bit dated, someone else’s socks left in the room behind the small cabinet that I ended up moving to put my suitcase on, the bed had body dents on either side (ridge in the middle), not enough plug points, overall pretty average I was lucky to stay at the back away from the busy road.

Very welcoming place. A happy stay.
Anouk and Gerard were absolutely brilliant hosts, giving us such a lot of really useful information. They were very friendly and kind in general. Thank you.
The location is great for exploring the Otago area. The walk down the amazing beach to a wonderful Italian restaurant was really special.

the property is run and managed by a family, who reside on the property. I arrived early after notifying over email. In advance. The email was not received.
The room was neat and clean but isn't business friendly as it doesn't have enough power sockets to attach multiple devices.
Also there is no provisions for groceries or food nearby and you have to travel a distance to get essentials.
There is no guest waiting room and after check out they almost are ready to push you away from the property even while you are waiting for your ride pick up
I requested for a late check out fdue to a flight cancellation and the first Th hung they asked for was payment for the extra three hours!! I won't rebook agian

Loved that we could park right in front of our room! It’s a funky little hotel, but lived our stay here. Very clean and staff was so kind! Left us two little cookies and mince pies!

The motel has some Mediterranean vibe, it looks super nice. The room was big and modern. We were 5min walk from the beach (and sea lions). The manager, who is also a chef made the best English breakfast, and was generally really nice amd friendly. We really had a great time.

We vonden het een goede en ook gezellig ingerichte accomodatie. Leuk was dat de host Nederlandse roots had. Gaf goede en reële info over omgeving en eetgelegenheden. Een aanrader deze accomodatie dicht bij een mooie baai. Echt een meerwaarde tov andere accomodaties die we hebben gehad.Ook andere personeelsleden zeer behulpzaam bij
het geven en opzoeken van info over bijv busschema's.
