We arrived late at night after a long drive, not sure what to expect as the info in our guidebook wasn't too reassuring. But we were very pleasantly surprised. The setting was fantastic with sea views and the campground was very well maintained with spacious pitches and a choice of motel units. The owner was very welcoming and the facilities were spotless. We would love to have stayed longer.

We stayed in a tourist cabin, a tiny but perfectly formed cabin. The large window overlooks the fishing boats in the harbour, and friendly Fleur's Place restaurant, just a stroll away.
The cabin was clean & warm, price good, the owners very friendly & helpful. The boulders, lighthouse, seals & penguins are nearby. Highly recommended.

We booked the hotel online and Viv sent me a very detail list of room we could choose from. We knew that we would be late due to a very packed schedule driving down from Christchurch but they didn't mind greeting us with warm welcome. It was a small tourist flat facing the beach very close to most major tourist sites. Initially we though we would be starving in this small and close to nothing fishing village but luckily they showed us a restuarant by the beach which opened til late. Forget about the food but at least it filled the stomach.
The flat itself was perfect with all you needed for overnight stay and great views. Heaters were very strong and nice. The only down side was that the shower stream a bit weak probably because it was pumped from far away.

We stayed at Moeraki specifically to go to Fleur's Place.
The motel was one of the accommodation options at the Holiday Park.
We were greeted by the friendly owners and from then on our stay exceeded all our expectations.
The motel was in the best location possible for gazing at the mountains, the sea and all the activities of the fishing village. The motel unit was spotless. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the Lazy-boy chairs.
Fleur's Place was within easy walking distance and at low tide it was a good walk to the boulders about 1.5km along the beach.
Close by is a lighthouse and a yellow-eyed penguin colony where you can view penguins and seals at dusk.
