We had a blast exploring The Track, which offered epic views of Queen Charlotte and Kenepuru Sounds. The bag transfers provided by Cougar Line & Beachcomber were a life-saver and made our journey hassle-free. Plus, the resort had a cool pool where we could chill and soak up the beautiful surroundings.
We wished there were more options for young party-goers like us. It would have been awesome if the resort organized some awesome nightlife activities or even had a party atmosphere at the bar.

Top-class and luxurious place, I enjoyed to be here.
The hotel was an excellent place for enjoying a nice enough area, close enough to a steepish hill to the town as well as the bay with sewage warning signs all around. The continental breakfast had variety of choices.

The rooms at the Portage Resort are beautifully maintained and brand-new. The bed is great and breakfast is delicious. The resort has a lovely swimming pool for guests to enjoy. The location is beautiful and fantastic, being really close to the northern South Island. There are comfortable areas for fine dining or casual snacks. Guests can easily access the Cougar Line water taxi to Torea Bay.

We stayed one night at this hotel and had a relaxing and enjoyable experience. The staff were helpful and efficient, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with beautiful views of the bay from the balcony. The buffet dinner was sumptuous, offering a variety of delicious options. The hotel also provided a free transfer service to and from the track, which was a convenient and much appreciated perk. this place has a peaceful atmosphere, stunning location, and excellent service.
