The condo was wonderful, with incredible views of the St Clair beach. The kitchenette was a great asset for us as we were able to make our own meals due to dietary issues. The condo was very clean and the bed was very comfortable! There is a washing machine on site which was very helpful!

Lovely place, very comfortable and clean, full of books and handwritten advice about where to go and what to eat while in Dunedin. Never interacted with the host in person, but friendly interactions via message. It felt cozy, homey, and still private. I would absolutely stay here again.

For me, this apartment is one of the 5 best I have ever stayed in. It beats any hotel I've seen in Cannes, Dubai, London or Barcelona. And for three reasons: 1. the architect really had an eye for technical details. Dimmable LED lights, glare-free staircase lighting, night lights in the bathrooms that switch on automatically and fly screens in front of the windows. Hallelujah! That should become ISO standard. I've stayed in brand new hotel rooms where there wasn't even a power socket next to the bed! 2. the great storytelling about the room (we were in the Gaynor Clayton Apartment). The artist was a former tenant, the brushes and her paint box. Her daily routine and her red hat hanging in the dressing room. How cool! 3. the attention and respect for us as guests. When we entered the room, soft relaxing music was playing (we loved it so much that it was on for a couple of hours), the rooms were aired. Fresh eggs, jam and honey in the fridge and toast. Not much, but great value for us travellers!
