Becca, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Ka Ki, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very cute place, the pool area is nice. Staff very friendly. Attention to cleaning detail in the rooms is lacking (corners, baseboards) but otherwise nice.

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.

Randy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property and facilities were top notch. Very warm and inviting with lots of space for a small hotel. Special shout out to Melisa and Veronica. Melisa was the manager and Veronica ran the the pool bar. Veronica made us feel so welcome and treated us like family. Thanks so much for everything. We will absolutely see you again.

Cute little place but expected it to be cleaner and a bit nicer for the price.
Matt, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The kiwi is an amazing experience and resort feeling with amenities close to all the convenient locations in Grand Bend and amazing beaches which you don't even need to visit because pool and staff are amazing. Service is impeccable friendly welcome staff will mix you up delicious drinks by the pool or in their Queen little bar inside.... The rooms are adorable with a boutique feel..... Absolutely a pleasure staying at the kiwi can't wait to visit again

Very friendly. Far enough away from the strip to be quiet but close enough to walk to the action.

Intro to Grand Bend

A very clean modern room and washroom. Just a tad tight to get past end of bed under the mounted TV. Lovely property - lots of thought with the relaxed conversation and fire pit areas.
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Love the environment and great stay.
Justin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved this cute motel right in grand bend ! It was super close to the main shopping and restaurants. It’s so cute! My only downfall is that it’s on a road that is sort of busy and next to some buildings that just doesn’t make it feel as quaint and quiet as you’d expect. Other than that, it’s wonderful!
Stephanie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the motel and we had a great time but our fridge leaked the entire stay. We had to throw out food we brought for our daughter. Had to keep our shoes on at all times to keep our feet dry and had to use the room towels to try and keep the floor dry. It

Was very nice place , comfy and cozy
Myles, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Wanted to like the Kiwi Motel, but ended up being a case of “putting lipstick on a pig” so to speak. Just because you paint everything white, add beach design details and make it look good for the socials, doesn’t make it worth almost $500/night. The bed in room 1 was soft, squeaky and the duvet cover had a blood stain on it. The pool was 3/4 full and surrounding area looked like it was minimally maintained.
Sarah, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I booked two nights but I had to leave a day early because my spouse ended up in the hospital. It was a lovely stay but cut short unexpectedly. There was nothing I could do to get money back for the second day which was unfortunate and the only reason my stay was “okay.” Otherwise the pool was great and staff was very lovely.
Heather, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was great , rooms were nice and clean. Very close to everything in town. All walking distance pretty much. ( im not much of a walker). Had smart TV’s so you could watch what you want your room. Pool and hot tub were nice. Only thing missing was somewhere to hang out and drink/relax in the rain. Maybe like a gazebo or fill in the roofs on patios so they can stay dry.
