    Kate was very accommodating, she allowed us to have a late arrival and even waited back at the office to greet us. Knowing we were coming from Australia she warmed the room so when we arrived we were nice and warm, she also supplied us with extra blanket for the bed and couch. The room was equipped with all your cooking equipment with is a great touch for those long stays and reduce the added cost of eating out whilst on holidays.

    This is definitely a budget accommodation. The location was good with parking and an easy walk into town/beach. The road noise was quite bad and even with the windows and door closed it felt as if the cars were right next to our room. I wouldn’t stay here again.

    I have stayed here previously but had a different apartment and therefore experience. This time it was very noisy throughout the night from the SH1 immediately beside the property, hence two nights’ poor sleep. . Beds comfortable and very clean accommodation. Minimal equipment (which I had been warned about beforehand) and intermittently slow internet.

    This accomodation was faultless. Stunning views, great location, beautiful decor and clean and cozy. Even with a little bit of rain in Timaru during our stay we were more than happy to enjoy the views from this peaceful apartment. Every detail has been considered by these great hosts. Such a lovely experience! Thank you
