The room was clean and comfortable. All furnishings were in excellent condition. The staff were very accomodating and even made sure they had turned on the heater before I arrived to make sure the room was warm as the afternoon got cooler.

Extremely clean, comfortable and spacious units

Extremely clean, comfortable, spacious and quiet. This is one of the nicest motels I have stayed at (and I have travelled a lot over the past years). Owners are friendly and helpful and went out of their way to check and offer a helping hand. Units are pleasantly spacious, away from the road (so quiet), and the beds are very comfortable. The kitchen / kitchenette and free laundry facilities are an added benefit. Overall very good value for money and this will be my place of choice if and when I have to travel to Invercargill again. Thanks Paul for being a great host!

This is an excellent choice of motel for pet owners. The staff were very welcoming of pets and did not charge extra and unnecessary 'cleaning' fees. Most fanatical pet owners are super responsible and mindful of premises integrity. Moana Court is spotlessly clean, quiet, warm and close to main street shops. They have a fantastic selection of tea/coffee/hot chocolate and kindly provide handy extras like tissues, paper towels and warm blankets. I will definitely stay here again. Perfection. Thank you. xx
