Sumner Bay Motel & Apartments

Rodger’s personalized recommendations, tips and check-in orientation were g.reat, but the next day his service was way above and beyond expectations. While packing for our flight to Australia I realized my phone was still at the restaurant where we ate the night before. Since the restaurant didn’t open until after our flight departure I was in trouble. Rodger helped identify the restaurant owner then drove to his home, got the restaurant key, picked up and delivered my phone. He wouldn’t even take a few dollars for petrol insisting “it’s just part of the service”. Of that the room was very clean, comfortable and in a great location near shops, restaurants and the beach. We will be back

Very friendly, great knowledge about where to eat.

These apartments are lovely with a very comfortable bed, nice bathroom and the private terrace is a real bonus. For those who don't like CBD areas, this is the perfect place to stay because it's only a short bus ride into Christchurch. The host is fabulous and is a wealth of local information. Would definitely stay again.

Live in north caterbury and have never given staying in Sumner a 2nd thinking, great weekend, wonderful service, top spot to drop off the rada, we have rebooked

Excellent. Very friendly owners.

Great owners and location. Easy walk to the beach and shops. Comfy bed and excellent water pressure in the shower.

Wonderful spot to visit! This motel makes it even better! Easy walk to everything! (beach, great restaurants, hikes, grocery, surf school, etc) Topped off with excellent service in a clean room that has everything you could need! Even a kitchen! Short, easy drive into Christchurch and everything Christchurch has to offer!

A superbly located property in the centre of Sumner Beach with good off-street parking and a very attentive and helpful owner. The unit was clean, tastefully presented and very well equipped and though without air con had an effective fan for cooling. I would happily go back to most units although, as a light sleeper, would probably avoid the studio that we rented as it has cars parked on two sides making it potentially noisy (although we didn't experience any ourselves when we stayed).
