Friendly, accommodating staff. I asked if I could make a cup of tea anytime and store some items in a fridge, and they showed me a pantry I could use. The venue was warm, lovely open fire, bed was comfortable and cosy. The Dinner Menu was extensive, catering to all tastes

This was a quirky place, full of history from the old mining days.
Bathroom and toilets were in the hall but everything was spotlessly clean.
Rooms are very simple and there is a big basket with hot water bottles in case you get cold.
We very much enjoyed our food: it was delicious, affordable and they serve a good portion size.
The pub was downstairs so you will hear some music when you are in bed but it was not too loud or annoying for us at all.
Comfortable beds and a good basic breakfast included & friendly staff, the only thing we regret is that we didn't have more time to absorb everything we saw in the pub: from old signs with West Coast sayings, newspaper articles, old mining memorabilia and so much more.
We LOVED the whole atmosphere: if you expect the luxury of a 5-star-hotel then it is probably not for you but if you are keen to go to a place that is unique, different and something to remember for a long time we would highly recommend it.

Village in a beautiful setting near native forest park and overlooking Lake Brunner. A small number of occupied original houses and lots of new modern holiday homes that would likely be busy in the Summer water-skiing season. Neat historic railway buildings. A great place to stop on the Tranzscenic with a couple of good places to eat overlooking the lake. Beautiful short bush walks nearby.

It is a wonderful spot and surprisingly didn't cost the earth. We ate in the Lodge and the food was excellent. The lodge and the owners are wonderful.
There is a short length of unpaved road to get to the lodge but don't let that deter you. It passes quickly and just adds to its charm.

Nice and quiet before Christmas, afterwards gets very busy with holiday makers, good walking tracks around the area. Great place if you have a boat, water skiing etc. Greymouth is only 25 minutes away if you need to go to a supermarket i.e. Countdown and New World. There is a convenience store (On the Spot) on the outskirts of Moana.

What I liked best, was a significant contributor to almost the worst aspect of my stay in Moana. The air was clear, the lake was pristine, the walks were easy going. There were no problems experienced jostling for space with other visitors on the lakefront or walks; and the food was great. The negative side to those superlatives was the cost of food and drink, and being unable to make easy contact with activity operators, such as being able to book a cruise on the lake. By the time this was sorted (it took almost 24hrs) there was not enough time left to then obtain a conveniently timed booking.
It would have been great to have a specific, well signed, location where drone photographers could launch and fly their UAS, for videographic purposes, under Part 101 of NZ CAA rules.
Exceptional, friendly service.
Lisa and Gael went out of their way to make us welcome. They provided transport to Moana rather than allowing us to walk. Our room was serviced daily to a very high standard. A very generous continental breakfast provided with the room. Beautiful, peaceful surroundings with friendly Weka being frequent visitors. A perfect place to relax.
Quite simply the most genuine hosts I have ever been a guest of. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed by their stay here.
We had a nice meal at the restaurant and the staff were helpful and friendly. The restaurant was cozy and warm and had a quirky atmosphere. There were a good selection of wines. There was handy close parking by our room. The room was spacious and quiet and the bed was comfy. Moana has some lovely bush walks.
Lovely old hotel, great position overlooking L Brunner
Handy to easy walks in native forest along the lake and River Arnold
Half price wine at Happy Hour and complimentary nibbles.
Special reduced room rate
Breakfast included in room rate
Helpful staff
