About this property

Bach central- 1 Rue Viard, located across from park and beach - Top Location!

Make the most of your holidays in this great kiwi bach with location,location,location! Fantastic outdoor living and two separate living areas inside, one lounge with tv on the wall and plenty of DVDs and a nice lounge type dining to socialise in.
Fantastic undercover deck for relaxing, lots of seating and even a hammock.
This bach comes with activities, two kayaks, a range of life jackets, just walk them across the road, pop off the wheels and go paddling! Two fishing rods and tackle to get those fish from the wharf, a dart board and plenty of good old fashion dvd's if the weather turns.
Fantastic location, on the flat, close to cafes and over the road from mini golf, tennis courts, cricket nets, bmx track, skate park, domain field and petanque , balls included.
This bach is a dream for boaties with a flat section and easy access for boat parking.
This is a bach with personality, very clean and fun.

Address is 1 Rue Viard
Please BYO linen, and clean on departure.

Good location
Good location. Well stocked kitchen. Nice bach to go to with our 4 young kids, we walked everywhere as it's close to everything and a good host. A few tyre burn outs with smoke during the first day at the neighbours but it was a holiday weekend and the rest of the time was good. Thanks so much!

Waitangi weekend
Loved the location, only a few minutes into town and the water. The beds were very comfy, facilities great with a lovely bach atmosphere. Bikes, boules and kayaks were a welcome bonus.

Cute place with great outdoor spaces
This was an easy rental. The indoor spaces are very small for a family, as is the kitchen, but we enjoyed staying. The outdoor set up is amazing with deck, BBQ and outdoor sink. Very generous hosts making their fantastic outdoor gear available. Easy check in and departure guidelines. Great location near waterfront and central Akaroa.

Perfect family getaway.
Fantastic Bach. Ideally located near shops and beach, as well as a morning coffee and fresh Pastries. Thoroughly enjoyed using the Kayaks. Old style Bach but everything worked well. Highly recommended.

Great location
This house was clean and warm with everything we needed for a family of 6. It was an older house , but well maintained . There was an amazing amount of wonderful outdoor equipment and the outdoor area looked amazing. Bring June we weren’t able to use it. Great location, close to the village. Well recommended for a family.
