I booked two nights but I had to leave a day early because my spouse ended up in the hospital. It was a lovely stay but cut short unexpectedly. There was nothing I could do to get money back for the second day which was unfortunate and the only reason my stay was “okay.” Otherwise the pool was great and staff was very lovely.

We loved this cute motel right in grand bend ! It was super close to the main shopping and restaurants. It’s so cute! My only downfall is that it’s on a road that is sort of busy and next to some buildings that just doesn’t make it feel as quaint and quiet as you’d expect. Other than that, it’s wonderful!

Intro to Grand Bend

A very clean modern room and washroom. Just a tad tight to get past end of bed under the mounted TV. Lovely property - lots of thought with the relaxed conversation and fire pit areas.

The kiwi is an amazing experience and resort feeling with amenities close to all the convenient locations in Grand Bend and amazing beaches which you don't even need to visit because pool and staff are amazing. Service is impeccable friendly welcome staff will mix you up delicious drinks by the pool or in their Queen little bar inside.... The rooms are adorable with a boutique feel..... Absolutely a pleasure staying at the kiwi can't wait to visit again

Staff was great , rooms were nice and clean. Very close to everything in town. All walking distance pretty much. ( im not much of a walker). Had smart TV’s so you could watch what you want your room. Pool and hot tub were nice. Only thing missing was somewhere to hang out and drink/relax in the rain. Maybe like a gazebo or fill in the roofs on patios so they can stay dry.
