We had an amazing stay the night of our wedding. Alan and Lisa are top hosts and went out of their way for us. Thanks for such a relaxing night and the awesome spa in the morning. You guys are a great example of Motueka hospitality. Nice roomy room and very clean and well presented. Thanks Max C

We are currently touring New Zealand with friends, we stayed here one night and found the Hosts to be very accommodating and helpful, our apartment had a full kitchen, 2 comfortable beds/bedrooms, shower and a comfortable lounge area, the site also has a spa; The site is very quiet and within walking distance of the town of Motueka.

This was just the perfect place to stay for our family of 5 (including 3 young kids - 8, 6, 4). The unit was great (2 bedrooms) and Alan & Lisa are fantastic hosts and couldn't do enough to make our stay a pleasant one. There are safe grounds within the Motel for the kids to play (including tramp and... More

An excellent motel within short walking distance of Motueka's main street. Light airy rooms with good garden views. Complimentary wireless is an added bonus. Alan and Lisa are excellent hosts with great knowledge of the local area - couldn't really ask for anything more.

The motel is clean, well maintained and the owners are very helpful. We had a studio unit for 3 nights. The room was fine. Well furnished (but nothing special), light and airy with a view out onto a large grassed area. Very quiet and mostly peaceful. We paid $149 per night which seemed a bit expensive for the facilities available... More

The motel's website doesn't quite do this place justice! In person, it was much better than we expected. We had a 1-bedroom unit and it was very clean and spacious, with comfortable king bed, and a patio overlooking the pool area. Owners Lisa and Alan were wonderful - very pleasant and professional. The landscaping and flowering plants were very attractive... More

Had the 3 most wonderful days at New Zealand at the Equestrian Lodge,Motueka. The owners/hosts, Alan and Lisa, left no stone unturned to make us feel at home. A must for anybody visiting the region. In fact Motueka is the perfect choice to stay to enjoy the Abel Tasman, which in itself is a lovely place. Personally would have preferred... More

What a lovely place! When we traveled to Motueka on a rainy day but upon our arrival the sun started shining but next to that I would really compliment the owner how he welcomes you as a guest! No questions raised only answers given, nice comfortable spacious apartment with all the equipment needed. Indeed a peaceful oasis with nice and... More

I cannot describe my feelings enough with words. It's a perfect place for my family. It's definitely the best accommodation we've ever experienced, super friendly and helpful staff (Alan&Lisa), super clean and comfortable rooms, super value for money, and super handy to everything. This is my first time to write a review, because I'm usually a bit lazy and cannot... More
