Default Holiday/Short-Term Accommodation N/S Islands

Coming down from Canada late-March to late-April and planning on seeing as much as I can manage in the allotted time both North and South. Sentimental/nostalgic trip - lived in NZ in the Seventies. Bit too 'long in the tooth' for camping/youth hostelling/backpacking. Looking for budget accommodation to fit this itinerary:- Paihia-Auckland-Paraparaumu-Wellington-Nelson-Greymouth-C'Chch-Hanmer-
Picton-W'Ton-Napier-Taupo-Rotorua-Tauranga-Auckland (already managed to find something in the Coromandel). Travelling with platonic travelling companion so need accommodation accordingly.

Anybody got any ideas/suggestions (clean, please!)

For example, anybody got anything (or know of anything) to rent anywhere along (or near) the above route? Planning on 1 night in the smaller centres, 2 nights in W'Ton/C'chch and longer in Auckland.

Hi there,
try www.jasons.com for motels and www.aatravel.co.nz for accomodation in NZ.
Sorry, can't be more specific but there ought to be something in one of those that will help
