Bay of Many Coves Resort Reviews

Disappointing feedback in some respects Bob and contrary to your comments on departure. Not sure why you would consider it cheeky to charge for water taxis. Cougarline is a separate business to the Bay of Many Coves and they are not in the habit of offering free water taxi transfers to the Resort - just for kicks? Would you consider it 'cheeky' if a rental car company charged you car hire costs to drive to a hotel in Queenstown? I do accept your feedback on the Bight Cafe. It is a nemesis which is set to close fopr good at the end of this season and will be replaced with a "guest lounge" . Unfortunately over the years - the cafe has taken away the focus from the resort and for exactly the reasons you noted - we have decided to re-purpose this space and replace it with a guest lounge and bar area and will also re-locate our reception to this space also. Finally - to clarify your checkout. Your booking from Expedia was in fact NOT dinner, bed and breakfast as you had believed, but in fact what you paid for was Bed and Breakfast - with dinner to be charged separately to your account. Rianne rightly checked you out so as not to cause a scene and waited for us to return from a day off to follow up. What you considered a farce was actually Rianne trying to make sense of your understanding of your booking - which was at odds with what you actually paid for. As a result - there remains a balance of $460.00 against your account which Kim and I have taken the decision to write off as we truly believe that you thought that this was part of your package - when in fact it wasn't. Bob - we enjoyed having you and your wife stay, but just needed to set the story straight as I think your comments (with the exception of the cafe, which we completely accept) were a little harsh and unwarranted.

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are proud of this property and feedback like this makes it all worthwhile. Safe onward travels in New Zealand.
