Blue Dolphin Motel

We were near the beach and able to walk to the botanical gardens. We stopped to eat on the way back. Room was spotlessly clean. Bed was very comfortable. Good facilities.

Nice, clean, easy parking, easy walk into town.  I would recommend this place.

Nice clean room and upstairs and downstairs bedroom. Was very nice to stay here.

Room was very comfortable and very clean! Noise from main road did not affect us at night as the room has double glazed windows. Owners went out of their way to accommodate us for 7 nights as this was a short notice booking. Very pleased with accommodation overall.

We love staying here! Its our third time now and they never disappoint!! Will definitely be back!

Really nice set up, plenty of parking available right at the door of your room. Very spacious apartment with a separate bedroom with King/Queen sized bed plus a single bed in the living room. The apartment kitchen came with full cooking facilities too. 



Good location for walking to Caroline Bay. Bakery across road, and short drive to shops. Unit was spacious with new carpet and had separate lounge/dining to bedrooms

This is an older property, but very well kept and stocked. It was clean, had good kitchenette that was well stocked with dishes, tableware and pots and pans. My only complaint is they have long term guests that were a little rowdy. The were setting off fireworks for a short period of time and I found that disturbing. Also they could use a new mattress as it was rather saggy. For a two room unit it was certainly worth the price.

Immaculately clean, but very dated - looks like something from the 1970s! I also found there was a lot of noise coming from the laundry room next door to my room (room 5) VERY early in the morning. The people were very welcoming, and parking was easy onsite - right in front of my room. Everything worked well, with acceptable hot water and plenty of room. This would be ideal for a group with kids to stay, assuming they don't mind how aged the rooms are. I would stay again.

Stayed here for 1 night. No road noise which was awesome since being on such a main road. The room itself was dated but clean in fact the sparkliest stainless steel bench top and shower I have ever seen and all original still! Enjoyable to stay here especially if you are looking to relive some old school vibes.

Rustic but clean

Loved our stay so much. The owner was very friendly and welcoming providing us with detailed information about the locality of things in the area and gave us a detailed map. He mentioned how beautiful Caroline Bay was and he was not wrong. The room itself was clean and comfortable but the furniture was a little outdated. The bed was very comfortable and we both had a fantastic night sleep. Kitchen was useful with a good sized fridge and all the utensils were provided. Circulation of air however was an issue as there was no fan and only a heater provided. Internet was capped at 1GB but that was plenty for the two of us for the one night and it was reliable. Parking was free however was awkward at times. Would stay here again if we pass through Timaru. 

Great Place to Stay

Booked online on day of arrival for one night stay while passing through. A nice welcome with heater on and curtains closed on a cool evening. Comfortable for family of 5, clean and tidy. Lacked hot water in bathroom sink and one person unable to connect to Wifi. Traffic noise woke us early. Price was good.

Beautiful property.  Good and adequate amenities.  Very comfortable except for drainage in the shower.  Feel as though you’re wading in water because of slow drainage.

Handy to Town Centre. Had everything we needed.  Would stay again

Nice. Mid week short notice.Exceeded expectations for the price.

Price was very reasonable so over all it was a very good stay, the 2 bedroom unit was very comfortable and the managers were very helpful, would stay here again
