    spacious rooms
    low bed
    disinterested staff

    Spacious rooms with excellent facilities and beautiful views.

    Unfortunately, our stay was marred by a series of disappointments. The bed in our room was exceedingly low to the ground, making it quite challenging for us to get in and out, especially as older travelers. Additionally, the reception staff seemed disinterested and provided no assistance or recommendations, which left us feeling unwelcome during our stay.

    great views
    dated furniture
    noise issues

    The space at Rainforest Motel felt inviting. I appreciated the spacious rooms equipped with a well-stocked kitchenette, which made it easy to prepare meals. The location near restaurants and just a short walk from the main road was perfect for exploring. The views from the big windows were stunning, even on a drizzly day. I found the staff to be friendly and helpful, providing tips for local hikes. However, the furniture in the unit appeared a bit dated and could benefit from some upgrades. Additionally, the adjacent unit's noise was noticeable early in the morning, which disrupted my sleep a bit.

    my stay at rain forest motel was truly lovely. the room was spacious, clean, and had a kitchen stocked with everything we needed. the owners were super generous, even giving us eggs for breakfast when the stores ran out.

    the shower pressure could be better.

    water pressure issue

    The location is a 2-minute walk from shops, and we loved the stunning views. We explored a couple of spots and got great tips from the friendly staff. Clean, spacious rooms made our stay cozy and fun. A win for our group trip!

    We faced a bit of an issue with the water pressure during our stay, which could have been better, but it didn’t ruin our time.

    Just a solid choice for a short stay in Fox Glacier with extraordinary value for money. The staff were extremely friendly, making the check-in process smooth and welcoming. Bring some snacks since there are limited dining options nearby.
