Accommodation is provided at the centrally located Bay Motel just a short walk from the beach and wharf area of Oban – the main settlement of Stewart Island. One of the challenges on the island is limited accommodation, but we are pleased to advise that we have secured a wide range of dates for independent travellers. If Stewart Island is on the Bucket list then we recommend booking sooner rather than later to secure accommodation.
