Scenic Hotel Punakaiki

Scenic Hotel Punakaiki

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is all about the scenic location with a beautiful beach and the blow holes an easy 1/2 mile walk from the hotel. The room was nice, large and clean, but could use a bit of refreshing. The location is so spectacular that any deficiencies are easily overlooked. Staff were all excellent, and we will definitely stay here again on our next trip to the West Coast."
