Shower doors weren't cleaned completely but the rest of the premises are fantastic! Great location. The host was more than accommodating and prompt and they were thoughtful enough to leave 2 robes for our comfort, which was greatly appreciated. My only suggestion: I get that it's winter and I'm a Canadian, but re: the hot tub is to maybe install a wall of some kind/wrap the 3 sides in winter to block the wind. I still enjoyed it in the blizzard! I also noticed that there wasn't a spare blanket in the room but I just turned up the heat and all was well. Overall I love the kiwi and will be back!

The room is clean and tidy. But not to expect a luxury resort type experience. The pool is quite small, it’s just for fun only. Location is good, walking distance to the beach.

Loved the Kiwi!

We loved the Kiwi! Perfectly located, easy walk to grand bend beach. Super clean, cute pool - a mini "miami beach" vibe with sweet umbrellas and neon signs. Family friendly, walkable to grocery store. Highly recommend.

The motel has great decor and amenities. It’s also far enough away from the Grand Bend strip that’s it’s not too busy or loud. It is overpriced for a motel.

Stayed here in the winter. It was very nice and quiet. The hot tub can be used year round and is very nice. The rooms are very nice and tidy as well. Staff were nice and checkin was relatively easy. Would recommend for a quiet get away in the winter!
