"We loved this property. It was private and peaceful with a lovely rural outlet and some very cute pet sheep. While near the main homestead the set up and positioning made it private with its own parking area and entranceway. A short walk was a paved track which went down to the beach. Stunning views from the top over the bay. We spent most of our time onsite for the 4 days we were there celebrating a 90th birthday and it was excellent to be able to bring my elderly dad there each day for...

Palazzo Motor Lodge

Palazzo Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"We only stayed one night at Palazzo Motor Lodge, but we absolutely loved it! Everything was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and very well cared for. The lovely lady who checked us in was an absolute standout. She was incredibly warm, helpful, and genuinely friendly — within minutes it felt more like chatting with someone we’d known for years than checking into a motel. That kind of genuine hospitality makes such a difference, especially when you’re traveling. Our room was quiet, comfortable, and had everything we needed. You can tell a lot of care goes into this place, and we only wish we could have stayed longer. Such a wonderful find in Nelson. We would happily stay at Palazzo again and absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting!"
