The apartment was a highlight of our stay in Kaikoura. It had a nice big balcony overlooking the water and was easily big enough for two people. It was clean and had the right equipment for cooking and doing laundry, which was a plus. We really enjoyed our stay, the apartment was comfortable and warm.

We were blown away with the ocean views our “apartment” had. The apartment was spacious with two bedrooms, a great kitchen, a six-person table and cozy living room. We were given a bottle of milk when we arrived to put in our fridge for coffee, tea, hot chocolate (all in the kitchen). We opened one of the cupboards and found a washing machine - awesome! This place and staff were amazing! Highly recommend!
