Guests staying at Catlins Newhaven Holiday Park are a 5-minute walk from Surat Bay, a long sand beach in Newhaven, where you may be lucky enough to see a Hooker Sea Lion.

Although we didn’t see any wildlife, the staff were helpful in pointing out where they’ll likely be! Located a couple minutes walk from the beach.
Facilities are super clean! Shower takes a minute to warm up and are coin operated. I like that they are eco-conscious and use rainwater! Coins are given at checkout, one per person for 7 minutes.
Offering mountain views, Mohua Park - Catlins Eco Accommodation in Owaka provides accommodations, a garden, a terrace, and barbecue facilities.

Our cabin, Kaku, surrounded by trees and birdlife, overlooked rolling green fields dotted with sheep and the surrounding hills. It was so peaceful. Within 2 minutes walk were magical forest paths lined with magnificent tree ferns, crown ferns and undisturbed vegetation. The cabin was beautifully decorated, and contained books on the area, games, a well equipped small kitchen with a barbecue on the balcony. The old house on the estate was built in the 1920s and creates a feeling of timelessness. The owners helpfully supplied local history and tourist information and were so welcoming. We would have happily stayed longer in this unique oasis of tranquility and nature and would recommend it to anyone who appreciates these special qualities.
Located in Owaka, Owaka Lodge Motel offers a garden. The motel has both free WiFi and free private parking. At the motel, all rooms include a desk and a flat-screen TV.

The tiny house concept is interesting. The decor was charming (especially the William Morris print bedspread) and the kitchen well stocked. It was great to pick apples and pears to eat. The owners are truly committed to the environment.

First time staying in a tiny home, and I love it!! The place has everything you need and is really comfy (although it did get really cold at night!). The hosts were super kind and waited pretty late for me to arrive.

Owaka is a small village, it has an excellent Inn especially for accommodation. The village has a small but well stocked supermarket, it has two restaurants and two cafes. It is quiet and peaceful. It is well located for visits to sites along the coast. It has a modern museum that gives you information on the history of Owaka it also had an art exhibition.

Amazing place and very central to all the amazing walks and sights to see in the Caitlin’s. Great pub for drinks and meals, shops, petrol and a cool playground for the kids!

We all loved the local Museum, it was excellent. Also the bush walks to waterfalls, the Nuggets and Lost Gypsy Gallery were all wonderful! There's so much to do and see, we needed more time to see the Cathedral Caves; next time!

Lovely wee town!
Lovely wee town! Make sure if you see the country store or little boutique stores open, you go and have a look!! My biggest regret is leaving that to our last day as there was so much to see! The park also has a nice picnic area too! Four square staff are lovely!!

Owaka, Southland, Catlins, a very special and underestimated Paradise where you can find tranquility and inner peace. The Mother Nature makes you feel like you are the only person in this wonderful part of the World. I can't wait to come back here again.....
