Second time's a charm

This is the second time we've stayed here as we love the location and the property. It was an excellent base for our weekend away. This year we brought our brother and sister-in-laws with us with two of their grown up kids and the house didn't feel crowded at all. Highly recommended.

Wonderful stay in Akaroa

We loved this property for its handy location, great views, heaps of amenities, and because it felt like a real holiday home. The fireplace was great for cold weather (very easy to use!). We would strongly recommend it as a place to stay - unless it's during a time we would like to stay there again :)

Great find

We had an excellent stay thank you. You cannot beat the house for it's location a short walk from town and the beach. We made use of the kayaks that the hosts keep for guests, my kids loved this! The house was clean and had all the facilities we needed, felt very lucky to be sipping my morning brew on the balcony overlooking the bay, stunning, we'll definitely be back!
