Originally from Auckland, they moved to what they call their paradise in May 2019 after purchasing Top of the Town and are enjoying living in Picton immensely. Owners double vaccinated.

Comfy and posh

Love the look of the 1930's property. The way it's been tastefuly restored is at the owner's credit. Our room was well set out, all amenities covered. After spending 2 days travelling from Kerikeri to Greymouth, we arrived in Picton late at night due to the ferry being delayed in Wellington and Tracee met us out the front. It's good to find somewhere like this that's pet friendly.

Bay Vista Waterfront Motel

Bay Vista Waterfront Motel offers the only Picton accommodation ON the waterfront. We aren't just a motel, but a destination. Wake up to the sound of a Tui or Cacadas in our native bush and the smell of the sea at your doorstep. All our waterfront units are all north facing for all day sun & located right on the water’s edge with stunning views overlooking Waikawa Bay & the Marina. We are only 5 minutes by car from Picton township & have ample of off street parking for boats and trailers. It's only a short stroll to the local restaurant at the Marina, the boat launching ramps and playground.

My wife and I stayed at the Bay Vista for 3 nights from 28 May 2022. We considered all the other accommodation in the Picton area and were glad we chose this place. Best value for money and has uninterrupted views of the marina and hills beyond. The unit was a good size, very well maintained and Rachel was a lovely host. Highly recommended if you are looking for a quiet, spacious and scenic environment. Moses

Great location

Reviewed By Jkms0316

Nice clean hotel. Big rooms and nice finishings. Only complaint was lack of pillows and pillows extremely thin. Great location close to harbour front and restaurants. Great views of the harbour. Free parking. Restaurant was full so was unable to try the food.

Good service, good food but terrible bed!

Reviewed By carlasB8204XE

Welcoming people, and understand that staff is probably strained hence the microwaved scrambled eggs at breakfast- so can be forgiving of that. All in all happy with price I paid via Grab One, clean and tidy with Sky Movies a bonus and a lovely evening meal delivered to our room. The bed was the biggest let down, think they could do with a serious update as bed was hard as rocks and both our backs, hips and shoulders ache a few days later still.

Great room, beautiful view.

We loved our room at this motel, which was spacious and had a well-stocked kitchen. We only had time for one night, but wish we could have stayed longer. It was such a great change from the tiny rooms you get in some larger hotels.

We have stayed here before, and always enjoyed the friendly reception. Lots of space to relax, well equipped kitchen, plenty of parking. This time we got a double room, and the bathroom was pretty small, but a nice balcony and outlook. Really handy to the ferry and easy to walk into town.

A GEM FOUND BY CHANCE

Reviewed By David R

Rather like a pot luck dinner, we booked this place hoping for the best regarding location. It wasn’t until we arrived at the Broadway Motel, that a chance booking had turned up trumps. Location wise. Handy for travelling within the area: easy walking distance to the waterfront and Beachcomber Cruises: restaurants , cafes and convenience stores a short stroll. Our groundfloor unit was spacious, clean, and more than adequate. On site parking provided. Our hosts too, were friendly, accommodating, and happy to share their knowledge with us. Two nights came to an end all too quickly. David R
