Coastal Motor Lodge

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Coastal Motor Lodge. It's been a while since our last post, but we are continuing to feel incredibly grateful for the support we have received from our guests! Being fully booked since Christmas Eve is more than we could imagine, and we want to continue to provide affordable accommodation into 2026!
If you are a Thames local, please like and share this post to your friends and family. We need your help to continue to spread the word that this is a great place to stay. The sunsets have been amazing to witness, and it has been our absolute pleasure to meet so many people from different parts of New Zealand and the world.

**Casual Part-time Cleaners Urgently Required**
One of our long-serving cleaners is leaving us after many years of an amazing service with Coastal Motor Lodge. As a result, we are currently looking for 1-2 new cleaners to join us. Experience is preferred, but not necessary as we will provide on the job training.
If interested, please call Steve on (07) 868-6843 between 10am and 2pm.
