Restful Paton's Rock

We absolutely loved our stay at Paton's Rock and hope to be able to return. The ground floor unit was simple but very well equipped to cater for a family. Being so close to the beach, having the use of a BBQ and a deck in the peaceful garden was fantastic. The hosts were lovely and helpful and I'd be happy to recommend staying here.

Patons Rock does Rock

It was wonderful, relaxing, comfortable, interesting and great value for money. Gabriele was an excellent hostess and the spacious apartment with its facilities was perfect for us. AND on the right side of the infamous Takaka Hill, for those wanting to explore Golden Bay, Farewell Spit, Cape Farewell, Wharariki Beach, Pupu Springs, Abel Tasman Peninsula, and more.

Fun and rain

Short walk to beach. Fun even in rain. Close to town so good local facilities. Inside was small but good layout. Bunk bed room was small and poor ventilation (perhaps owner would be better to reduce price for 3rd and 4th beds) Tiles throughout flat made for cold feel.
