Taimana Boutique Motel

Rod and Ann's beautiful picturesque motel is like something that should be on a postcard. They made us feel more like family than guests. The room was perfect, and the view is stunning. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Christchurch.

The perfect place to stay! The space is lovely, the views are stunning and Diamond Bay is so charming.nnRodney and Ann are amazing hosts and have created accommodation with soul.nn10/10

This new Boutique Motel situated in the beautiful Diamond Harbour area is a much needed asset for Banks Peninsula. We booked both rooms late last year prior to opening and they held our reservation for us with clear and responsive communication between first contact and during our stay.nnOur experience that we had at Taimana was better that what I have experienced in some top hotel brands around the world. We had an amazing experience staying with Rodney and Ann.nnWe were attending a celebration over at Port Levy over the Easter Weekend and Rodney and Ann contacted us early to say the rooms were available 5 hours before the standard check-in which helped us out so we did not have to leave the function to come back at 2pm to sort out our stay.nnThe level of detail and customer focus which our hosts have exceeded our expectation offering transport to and from the function if we planned to drink, and were attentive to every and any need that we had. I really liked the sweet touch of the hosts sneaking an Easter egg into each of our room for us to enjoy was a brilliant personalised touch.nnThe facilities are well appointed, luxurious, and spacious. Both rooms décor fit the setting and are designed well one having a wheelchair accessible bathroom, the kitchens have everything you need and milk, tea and coffee were supplied. The large beds are cozy, warm, and are dressed with quality linen with a decent pillow to rest on. We both had an amazing sleep.nnI highly recommend Taimana if you are look for somewhere to relax or to have a nice getaway, this was perfect for what we needed and we will be back soon! Thank you and wish you all the best.

A perfect little hide out with the loveliest owners Rodney, Ann and their charming dog.nThe room was very comfortable with a king size bed, wifi, large shower, fully equipped kitchen, clean and very quiet.nSitting outside at the entrance deck with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine with the view over the harbour during the day in nature, was just amazing.nWould highly recommend this gem as it is only a 40min ferry away from the Christchurch CBD. Would be perfect for anyone looking to mountain bike, hike or even for a short getaway from the busy city life.nSmall but one delicious Cafe next door was a cherry on top Vegetarian friendly.nWould definitely come back anytime! One spectacular experience. Thank you Rodney and Ann!

We stayed here for a night and it was lovely - would happily come back again! The rooms are very well equipped, clean and tidy, with beautiful views of the harbour. Nice and close to the cafe, park and waterfront. Big luxe shower, and the bed has to be one of the comfiest we’ve ever slept in! The owners are really lovely too and we got to meet their very nice dog :-
