Perfect location in Punakaiki. We stayed in an upper unit which provided a nice view of the ocean. Large suite with separate bedroom and great room. Our only wish would be for AC to help keep it cool as the sun is overhead. Fans were provided. It is a beautiful place to enjoy a glass of wine on the deck listening to sound of waves crashing onto the beach just across the road.

Perfect location in Punakaiki 

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Rimu cottage. The cottage itself is quite rustic but the views and privacy were terrific. Also, it was great to be able to do some laundry. The cottage is very convenient for visiting the Pancake Rocks. Make sure you bring some basic provisions. Note: This is the only accommodation we have found in NZ that has not had milk or a bottle of water in the fridge which would be nice given you can’t buy anything around the area. Also, the cutlery  (just 2 knives and forks and a couple of spoons, bread knife and one other)and dinnerware was minimal - 2 large plates and only one small one. All that was minor but a few more items would make the guest feel like more at home and a better value. All in all a great stay.

Lovely stay with a view and great location

Wooden shack by the road called 'Paparoa Hut'
No views.... blocked by window screen.... and purpose built corrugated screen between dwelling and road.
Noise from road trafic in bedroom very irritating. Road is 12m away from bedroom.
Very disappointed, as was led to believe it had sea views. The only view from the outside seat by the door is that of the gravel drive way and the next door dwelling. Can't wait to leave!
Shabby inside, I guess thats why the call it a hut.
On the flip side, close to the tourist spots in the area.

The hut is not reccomended

My husband and I spent 4 nights staying in Paparoa hut, one of the Hydrangea Cottages in Punakaiki.  There are a variety of cottages to choose from depending on your accommodation needs.  The Hydrangea Cottages are situated directly across the road from the river, lagoon and beach.  The scenery is breathtaking and the lagoon is such a lovely place to swim.

Stunning scenery

We had the Mamaku cottage - it was beautful.  Very pretty and very spacious. 
 Good heating, plenty of towels, comfortable bed, nice sitting area (separate room) with good sized table.  Very close to the Pancake Rocks (which is definely recommended - also the Truman Track (do that at low tide when you can go down on the beach).  
Everything was great.   We were sorry to only be staying one night.

Beautiful place!

Arrived in a west coast downpour! The cottage was warm and cozy, loads of space for a couple. The kitchenette had everything we needed for a great night in. Bathroom was spacious and well heated with a heat lamp, the deck would have been great in the sunshine!

Cozy cottage on the cottage

We stayed here for 2 nights (family of 3) in the Mamaku Cottage, we wished we’d stayed longer..

The cottage is delightful with a good kitchen area, a good sized bathroom with a great shower, comfy beds and a lovely living/dining area.
The location is stunning and quiet, we slept so well!
We absolutely loved Punakaiki and the weather was fabulous.
Will definitely be back!

Delightful cottage in beautiful surroundings.

We walked out of the 4 day Paparoa track (amazing time), straight to th epub, with packs for lunch. No plans , except find a place to stay with a hot bath, hopefully outdoors. Quick google search and I was phoning Karen,  to discuss a same day booking for us. So easy over the phone with her, and 15 minutes later we were unlocking a door to a most gorgeous place to rejuvenate. We were offered the Miro cottage, which was spot on.  The bath outside on the deck was exactly what was needed,  The deck and bed/living room filled with sun in the late afternoon, and provided a fabulous sunset over the Tasman.  The cottages are so close to the action, but also secluded and peaceful.

Post-Paparoa Track tonic!

A friend recommended these cottages to stay ahead of our Paparoa track tramp. The cottage really nicely done, rustic but stylish in a lovely location above the state highway overlooking the sea. My only beef was the price, high for nzers shown by only two cottages booked during our mid January stay.

Great location, overpriced.

Nikau Cottage was as promoted. It has been nicely renovated. 

The kitchen and bathroom fittings and facilities are all of a very good standard. The two bedrooms are both large. The bed linen was fine quality. The sound of the sea while in bed is wonderful. Good sea views from the cottage and the deck. Wifi worked well.

Communal laundry on site worked well, although no drying rack or clothesline or iron. Self check-in was fine and easy. Cottage was clean.

I would recommend this accommodation. It was relatively expensive, especially for Punakaiki ($340 per night) but we felt the quality was there; we were a couple but it will sleep many more, which might make it more affordable.

Small negatives: we were harassed by mosquitos at night, despite keeping all the insect screens shut. Some insect spray and/or an audit of standing water would help this.  Some shade over the deck would have been nice. And a clothes drying rack. There is no dishwasher.
