For your Dunedin motel accommodation, Esplanade Motels are situated on Dunedin's esplanade just minutes from the city centre. Overlooking St Clair sweeping surf beach we offer 1 and 2 bedroom accommodation units, sleeping 1 to 8 people (some rooms with beach views – if making an enquiry and you want a beach view, please ask).

If you’re keen to try surfing then there is a Surf School situated right on the beach or maybe you would prefer a more leisurely activity, Esplanade Motels is the perfect Dunedin motel accommodation location to just laze, go for a walk or swim, or indulge in a gorgeous lunch. At the southern end of the beach is St Clair hot salt water heated swimming pool, a must for visitors, only open Summer months – nestled within rocks just metres from the ocean.

In 2004 the sea wall was refurbished to provide a modern, wide esplanade, with steps leading down to the beautiful sandy beach.

Along the esplanade is a great choice of restaurants and bars catering for every occasion from a quiet morning coffee while taking in views of the Southern Ocean, to a lively night out in a fantastic seaside setting. There is also a remodelled playground for children.

Saint Clair Beach is a ten minute drive from the city centre, or hop on one of the local buses that run regularly from the beach to the City.
