    Fantastic views. Good size 3bdrm home. Well appointed. Balcony 3 seater couch & chairs could be a tad more comfortable. Disappointing we had to take our own sheets & towels for the nightly fee we paid. Driveway is hideously steep & there wasn’t a house number on the fence.

    A lovely property, located a short drive from central Akaroa. Very clean and tidy, with a lovely view of the sea from the deck. We would certainly stay again next time we are in Akaroa.

    The entire stay was my favorite location and place I visited along my month long vacation. We stayed several places throughout NZ and this one by far was the favorite among the group. Close to local shops(coffee/tea/grocery/shopping). The best views you will find, and close toany hiking trails!

    Beautiful home, amazing views, great location. Well equipped kitchen and a few extras in the pantry that made preparing meals easier. Just remember to bring your linen - I didn’t see the details at the bottom of the listing, and website issues meant we didn’t receive the reminder. Thankfully the host sorted us linen!
