Koura Bay Golf Resort

Stayed here 1 night as part of our New Zealand trip organised by Trailfinders. We had a whale watching trip booked. It is situated a little way out of Kaikoura, and the rooms look out onto the golf course and the ocean beyond. As such it was very quiet. Parking was next to the accommodation building with a corridor between the car park and the room. It is a short drive into Kaikoura. There was a bar in the reception area. Breakfast in the room was included with our booking and was perfectly ok. I would be happy to stay here again if I was in the area.

WOW - just a short drive from Kaikōura away from the noise and tourists you will find peace and tranquility at this resort with an added bonus if you play golf. Modern clean accomodation with great views over the golf course and the sea. Warren and Jen are wonderful hosts If you want to dine a5 Kaikoura’s better restaurants please Book in advance

Nice room to live in! Quiet and Cozy

wonderful place to stay, it surprised me in many way, the pictures doesn't tell what you actual saw in person. it is more beautiful than it is.

We checked-in at resort's bar what is reception as well. It was very welcoming in so relaxing environment with a lot of comfortable seating inside and outside. Bar offers good coffee, refreshment and snacks what is very convenient. There is excellent golf pro shop as well. In spite being earlier than official check-in time they let as in, as our room was ready. The room was clean and specious with amazing view. Bathroom was accessible for wheelchair users ( we didn't need it or asked for) and was very nicely fitted- not sure if all rooms are with the same bathroom category. Receptionist book dinner for us in the town as we express our interest in testing famous local crayfish. Highlight of ours stay is playing golf that exceeded our expectation. It is 9 holes course but most of the holes are between 300 and 400 m and course is in excellent conditions. There are golf equipment and electric golf cart for hire and free trundles. After checking out we wanted to play another round and owner of the resort was very kind and told that we can enjoy playing as long as we want without any charge. All together very highly recommended venue with excellent service. Zana and Boris

Absolutely beautiful spot with stunning views. Very spacious. Disappointing there was no comfortable lounge chair to sit by the window to appreciate the view or have bed on the other side of the room so you could see the veiw from the bed. Bed extremely comfortable and so nice & quiet there. A bigger counter for tea/coffee making be a good idea and brighter light (with dimmer) be helpful. Staff left earlier than advertised reception hours so couldn’t ask questions. Owners could do so much more to make the most of stunning location & wonderful size of the rooms-be happy to give free interior design idea if interested. Of course the golf course the big draw card and the course did look extremely well maintained. Hope to return

What a great surprise. This place was fantastic. The staff were welcoming and the room was fantastic. Great curtains which covers out the total light which is great if you need a sleep in. When you draw back the curtains, the sun blazes in to room allowing you a view over the go,f course down to the coast. The golf course was included in the price and it was fun and challenging.

Lovely quiet and clean, be great if they offered some more dining services like cooked breakfasts, but lovely outlook and helpful staff
