Very pleasant one night stay
A short drive from Owaka - itself a pleasant enough village/town that's worth a stop for a coffee - this is well serviced accomodation in a beautiful location. The cabins are well equipped with linen, TV, a toaster and a kettle (although bring your own towels), and there are also some shared facilities for cooking. But the real reason to stay is the walk along the beach, which is accessible from the site, when the tide is low. We only stayed for a night, but this would also make a great hub for exploring other parts of the Caitlins. (I also appreciated the use of coins to limit people's shower uses.)

Great location as near the beautiful big beach. Saw a sea lion basking in the sun. Cabin was well equipped, though a shelf in the bathroom for our toilet bag would have been useful.

an ideal place to stay for nature lovers and families who want to introduce their children to it. Our apartment had two rooms with shower and toilet so we didn't have to share it and we also had a well equipped kitchen which served us well. On the grounds there is a small playground and a common room with kitchen shower toilet and washing machines (which you have to pay for). The surrounding area is great with a few steps or minutes drive you can see sea lions in the wild, lots of different bird species and flowers. Weatherproof clothing should be taken at least at our time of travel (OCT/NOV). Shopping facilities are available in Owaka and should be planned.

Laid Back spot right on the coast
We stayed in cabin #3, which was roomy and comfortable for 2 of us. (There’s a 2nd bedroom with bunk beds, which we just used for storage of the too much stuff we were hauling around.). Location is outstanding for walking along the beach and seeing sea lions. Dining options in the nearby town of Owaka are pretty limited, but the Whistling Frog in Chaslands about 46 km west is pretty good if you are going that way.
