Stunningly located on the Punakaiki coastline, overlooking the Tasman Sea, Breakers is a boutique bed and breakfast facility, offering New Zealand hospitality with a beachfront location and amazing panoramic sea views.
Check-in time is: 3.30pm-6pm. Please call you hosts - 03 762 7743 if you intend to arrive earlier or later.
You are best to arrive by 6pm (if possible) as this ensures you see the stunning sea views. Also, you have the opportunity to go for a beach walk right outside your doorstep!
Check-out is 10.00am. You are welcome to walk on the beach, use the internet or relax in the lounge or on the deck before/after this but guest room must be vacated by this time.
Important Directions:
Breakers Boutique Accommodation is 14kms north of Greymouth on the Great Coast Road, State Highway 6 (named one of the top ten coastal drives in the world by Lonely Planet) and 30kms south of Punakaiki.
From Greymouth heading towards Westport and Punakaiki, there are two small towns to pass through, Runanga and then Rapahoe. Rapahoe is when you first see the Coastline. At the top of the hill is the Strongman Mine Memorial lookout. At the bottom of the hill you cross over a small bridge called 9-mile creek – SLOW DOWN, Breakers is directly on the left after the bridge.
If coming from the north, we are 30kms south of Punakaiki – 14kms BEFORE Greymouth. After Barrytown, keep an eye out for other creeks – 14-mile, 13-mile and then 10-mile creek (one-lane bridge). We are just before 9-mile creek on the right-hand side – BEFORE the bridge and immediately after the sign for Strongman Mine Memorial.
