Beautiful apartment (we had nr1) literally looking at the beach from the livingroom and kitchen area. When you cross the street you are at the beach. Wonderful view of the ocean, when you are having breakfast on the terrace or with the glass sliding doors open in the livingroom. Everything was very clean, modern and had everything you can possibly need there. it felt great to spend a couple of days around Christmas there and we felt very spoiled.

We stayed in a beautiful two bedroom apartment which had a fantastic modern kitchen with everything we needed to cook a nice meal. The high ceilings and gas fire made the living room a really lovely place to sit and have a wine and read when it was raining outside. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space in the apartment. There was also a lovely outdoor eating area which I think would be great in warmer weather.

This was the last accommodation during our New Zealand trip and we have kept the best for last. What a beautiful chalet! The owners have clearly love and respect for their property. It is well-maintained and very clean. It offers all the comfort and luxury you need. It's beautifully styled. I love how the chalet is oriented on couples and not large families. It radiates romantic and peaceful vibes. The surroundings (mountains, fields) are amazing and the animals are soooo cute. I loved to watch the alpacas from my bed. I wish New Zealand was closer to home so I could visit again. Thank you for hosting us, we loved it so much! I highly, highly recommend staying here. And please: take care of this chalet like it is your own home.

I had been in the South Island for 10+ days and this is the best stay I have had - spacious, clean, spectacular view, good facilities (bath, stove, BBQ…etc). Location is fine which is just few mins drive from the centre. Superb value for money and the host is friendly.

Amazing property overlooking/right opposite the beach. Room was very clean and classy. Hosts were extremely lovely and friendly. Patrick gave a great suggestion for a restaurant and we were not disappointed. A lovely home made breakfast to finish off.

A really well stocked holiday home, they have thought of everything for you. Plenty of crockery and glassware, outdoor furniture was fantastic. Front deck for morning sun, back deck for evening sun, just perfect. Views were exceptional. House is on a hill, so was great to soak in all the Kaikoura scenery. The cleanliness of the property was also much appreciated.
