"Great stay. Had used this motel last year so was familar with the property. Can’t fault it. Kaka Point is an awesome spot too. "

"I had the pleasure to visit the Catlins again this year so took the opportunity to stay agsin in Surat as well this accommodation. The owner very friendly & helpful. It’s a great wee spot & property has awesome views of the sea & bay area. Large grounds as well with outdoor seating. Definitely will stay another time. "

"This stay was exactly what we were looking for as a group of young adults needing a place to stay for a friends wedding. Property manager was easy to work with and very friendly. The house itself suited our needs perfectly with comfy beds and appliances that are up to date! Couldn’t recommend more"

"The Catlins and surrounding coast are well worth a look in any extended NZ trip. Ray and Tania’s cosy cabin was as described. Great hosts, Ray had great advice about what to see and do. A little gravel road for 7km to reach an isolated small rural town far away from the crowds. Clean. Excellent outdoor area with BBQ. Rustic cabin adjoining the main house with attached private kitchenette and bathroom"

"great spot,quiet and peacefull..handy to beach...will b bak"

"Second time staying here and although the weather was, again, less than great, it was still a great time and the units and overall space are still really well maintained. Surat Bay is accessible and, further along, so is cannibal bay. Owaka nearby is also a lovely spot for an hour or two, with a solid restaurant, great coffee place, superb book shop and quaint little museum and community space. It is a beautiful spot, far from the world where all you'll hear are birds, the sea and wind moving through water ... And rain! Lots of rain! But without the rain, you wouldn't get that lush kiwi green."

"We had a wonderful time. We enjoyed the fire. Everything was lovely and clean. Handy to the beach. Great communication. Loved hearing all the birdsong in the morning. Hope to come again."

"Ray was very friendly and welcoming. The room was comfortable and warm. Didn’t realise it was separate from the bathroom although that was in the description. No sign of a hot tub? Would be better in the summer to enjoy the deck."
