Beautiful beach bungalow
What a fantastic stay we had at this property. It has it all. The view, comfort, location, cleanliness and it really does make you feel at home. I love how much of the artwork featured is shots of Timaru. The decor was stylish with a fantastic bathroom and kitchen. The beds super comfy. The neighbor hood was so lovely and quiet it was a joy to sit out side listening to the waves. Would highly recommend staying at this property. The owners were great to deal with should you need anything, but they pretty much have all the bases covered already.

Kat was an amazing host who was more than accommodating. Bringing us extra fire wood for our fireplace and then a slow cooker down for me to cook my stew. Great location across from the water and close to major shops. Very warm, homely home
