We stayed in the garden suite for the weekend. We loved it! Its clean, airy and has a great feel. It is opposite the end of the mountain-biking section of the Paparoa track...perfect! I would definitely stay again...in fact I am!! Already booked!

Response from Owner
Thank you, Prue and Jim, for your loyalty over the years! Especially, for being courageous and supporting my new venture of renting the Garden Suite with me in residence next door. It was really nice having you stay. Your comments were very much appreciated, this is a work in progress...exciting times! Come back next year to check up on things ;-) Kind regards, Tine

My stay at the Paua Palace was the best! As a previous visitor, I was so very pleased to see all the recent upgrades, not only to the accommodation itself, but to local surroundings. The Great Walk - The Paparoa Track is an impressive route for everyone to enjoy. I was able to leave my bike in the secure lock-up when I wasn't using it, and the Palace also offers parking for vehicles if you are going "bush" for a few days. We were extremely fortunate to have marvelous weather on this occasion, but if it clouds over, the Palace is a very warm, cosy place with double-glazing, insulation and a log burner to keep you warm whilst indulging in reading (many books available), game playing (lots of board games to test your patience!) or just enjoying the silence. Paua Palace, thanks again for such a great stay.
Response from Owner
Dear Caroline, thank you for returning to the palace and appreciating all the changes. I'm so glad all this winter-proofing has happened over the last couple of years! Indeed, we are getting ready for 1 Oct when the Paparoa Track opens, 55 km all the way through Blackball to Punakaiki. Watch this space! Walkers and mountain bikers will be able to enjoy NZ's most recent Great Walk, starting/ending just across the road from the Paua Palace. See you again, Tine
