Omara- more was a perfect location for our one night stopover in Omerama during our A2O cycle ride. The accommodation is first class, very comfortable and so well equipped with a lot of extras we did not expect. Karen is a great host, responded quickly to my questions and gave us lots of recommendations of where to have dinner and other things to do in the town. I would highly recommend this host and the beautiful accommodation to anyone visiting the area.

A lot of thought went into making the apartments cozy and welcoming. I’ve never seen so many kitchen supplies etc. at the ready for guests. Truly felt like a home away from home.

    We lived in Omarama approximately 30 years ago. It was lovely to see the progress in the town. There is plenty of places to eat out and all of them offer a good range of food, with friendly efficient staff.

    Often overlooked as a passing point to more exotic destination, this little stop over town has a few worthy attractions; the Clay Cliffs, the Ahuriri River, the Hot tub and the Glider rides etc. It is also near Twizel and Lake Ohau too.

    Great little settlement - the Clay Cliffs were spectacular and a definite must-see. The Hot Tubs were so lovely afterwards - very private and in a peaceful outdoor setting. Absolutely loved them. Had a meal at the local pub which was also very good.

    There are two places to eat in the village.

    There are two places to eat in the village. A hotel which caters for tour parties. The bufet looked average. The ala carte menue, which looks interesting is not available every night (barman said). It was available when I was there, but the staff seamed very reluctant to offer it. The steak was limp (looked like it had been cooked in a sous vide, but not flash fried at a high enough temperature) and everything was way, way over salted!!! I was Would not recomend it. The pub was lovely, good food, great staff and welcoming. Would recomend it.

    It was a spur of the moment booking as we had a problem with our car. Great hotel for overnight or several days. Friendly helpful staff, clean rooms if a bit "tired". Arrived late and left early so didn't eat on the premises.

    A pleasant, quiet place to get away from the 'madding crowd'! I love the scenery and climate there and the locals we met were friendly and helpful. I recommend The Pink Glider for a meal as well as the kebab truck on the highway. Both have super staff and good food. Omarama provides a really pleasant holiday get away.

    This is a great little holiday home which was comfortable and homely. It was a good temperament despite the hot days and cold nights, which made it comfortable to stay in. It was also close by to the small supermarket and pub which is a bonus if you want to pop out for food. There’s a nice upgraded playground in walking distance too which the kids enjoyed.

    Omarama is such an underrated place to stay. I really like the set up of the motel and the heritage fo the place was very interesting. Great front desk staff, very friendly and helpful. The unit itself was perfect for a nights stay, bathroom was clean and bedding was comfortable. Was great that there was a separate bedroom for extra privacy between guests.

    We arrived early at the hotel as the journey did not take as long as we thought. You let us check in no problem thank you for that. Cafe in town down from 4 square does great food, boots and jandals pub over the road does great beer and food also, Wrinkley rams cafe was disappointing, it looked nice but the food was not great ( I got the ribs)

    The motel was very comfortable, especially the bed, and surprisingly well-equiped. Only criticism was a lack of outlook, a window looking to the mountains would have completed the deal.
