We didn't have the breakfast option. It was enjoyable staying but we left early because of the dire weather forecast. The owner was very understanding.
Some really good coastal walks set up by DOC. Some great board walks and coastal walks of various lengths. Peaceful area with most tourists not taking advantage of the walks and stopping in car parks for a quick look only. Warning: don't go off road near beachs. We towed someone out of the sand!

Haast is a definite stop and you must visit Jackson's Bay. Although itis a long way from Haast its a lovely drive and an interesting place when you get there. Make sure you take insect repellant as it is a MUST.
We ate at the hotel restaurant. Good selection of mains.
Lots of walks.

Haast requires some commitment to not just blast through to Wanaka or the glaciers. The visitors centre and the boardwalk (on way to Jackson Bay) are both worth an hour of your time. Plus all the points on the map just before and after Knights Point, Ship creek walks x2, waterfalls. An overnight stay is recommended to have two brilliant travel days.
Take snacks and a flask though, it's remote and you may not find something open when you are hungry. And sandfly repellent, and long clothes!

We only stayed in Haast for 2 nights as a stopover between Queenstown and Franz Josef. Although there is not a lot to do apart from various walks and some fishing we did do a day trip down to Jackson Bay. A lovely little village on the edge of the ocean and they have a great seafood restaurant.

Jackson's Bay was probably beautiful in the sun, it was pouring down whilst we were there!! There is nothing to see at Haast- The beach isOK but there are the awful black bitingfies in their droves, other than that it is just a place to break a journey if necessary.

Haast is a nice remote location close to the seashore and national park. When travelling there are the facilities that you would need, but limited in choices. There is a Pub and Cafe where you can eat, but beware of their hours of operation. Wifi and cell service seeks to be restrictive in the region should you be needing it.
Very large, spacious set up. While we didn't have 3 in our party it would work well for 3 as there was sleeping room for 3. The host was very accommodating on our arrival time, which was quite late. She also made sure there was fresh milk in the frig for morning coffee which was very thoughtful and much appreciated! It was very quite, and it is quite remote. We arrived as it started to rain sheets of rain, which made it impossible to travel to Jackson Bay the next day due to a tree down and flooded roads.
Great host, she is very sociable with each guests and takes good care of them, keeps kitchen always neat and clean, loves gardening and often watering plants in garden lounge, guests enjoy to sit and relax here.
Best location in Haast township, supermarket ON THE SPOT 30sec., Spiker Cafe 1min., Restaurant The Hard Antler 2min., daytime crapes cart and whitebait carts come near here, intercity bus stop is in front of hostel entrance.
Hostel has 3 bikes, I biked to Jackson Bay and enjoyed this good bike.
The motel is about 10-15km off the main road through Haast. However, it's a fast road. The accommodation had 2 bedrooms and good kitchen equipment, a washing machine and tumble dryer. We did the excellent short Hapuka Estuary Walk which itself is a short walk from the motel. Excellent value for a basic but good short stay.
Very very clean and room had all we needed for a one night stay. I thoroughly appreciated the time that Suzy, the hotel owner, took to take about Haast and our drive the next day to Queenstown. So helpful and friendly. The room was exactly what we needed and would recommend. Cafe next door was great.
The studio is a bit out of town but across from the beach, which was nice. If you do not have a car it would be challenging to get groceries or breakfast/lunch/dinner. The closest store is about 3 to 4 km away. It's very quiet and was perfect for a short term stay. The host was super friendly.
Great amenities - real coffee and coffee plunger!!!, fresh milk, cookies etc and selection of teas (including peppermint), and hot chocolate powder. The room was very clean and well looked after. Directly across from Haast Beach access. Comfortable bed and pillows. We loved it!!
Aspire Motel, Haast offers very nice accommodation. The rooms are very well equipped and comfortable. I had a view to hills from my room and was able to park the car outside. The bathroom and kitchen are also lovely. The WiFi offered good signal strength.
good location - the room had a large balcony - motel was set in quiet surroundings - cleaning staff very friendly - excellent heating in the room - good views of the mountains - haast is a great place and would probably stay here again
The Haast Beach Motel was so comfortable, very quiet location , spotless, a well equipped kitchenette and everything was perfect.
There were a number of thoughtful little extras . It couldn't have been better.
Thank you very much .
Host friendly, knowledgeable and happy.
Bed very comfortable and good pillow selection. Shop and Cafe next door. Easy access to units and parking close.
Motel situated central to the areas walks and attractions.
The room was clean with basic facilities. Lovely outlook over countryside. Short drive to the fantastic desolate Haast Beach. Bar and restaurant with cosy fire on site and open. Good breakfast.
Everything. It was so peaceful and quiet. There’s a beautiful room where it’s so easy to loose track of time relaxing in there surrounded by plants. Best backpackers I’ve ever stayed at.
Nice little motel/hotel room. In a great location in Haast. Low cost and all the standard features. Good bed and clean room. Shower was hot and strong. Heating worked well.
The backdrop of the hotel was 1st class. Having the pub walking distance was perfect after a long drive. Perfect find in a beautiful part of the country
