Reviewed Sep 17, 2026We stayed here for two nights and had a wonderful experience. The apartment was very nice, clean, and well furnished, with everything we needed, including a washing machine, refrigerator, and a well-equipped kitchen. The host was also very friendly and helpful, giving us some useful advice about the town and local tours. Parking was convenient and well arranged as well. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place!

Reviewed Sep 12, 2026Very nice and cosy modern appartments. Kaikoura can have wild weather so it’s important to have a nice warm space to sit by a grand chill while waiting for the sun.

Reviewed Sep 7, 2026We liked the peace and quiet and the walks around the area. Cooking facilities were good. Loved the underfloor heating in the bathroom and the spa bath.
The mattress was comfortable but as a king bed the gap was uncomfortable. The gap in the shower door made the floor very wet. The heatpump was quite noisy.

Reviewed Jun 4, 2026We only stayed one night, but it was very pleasant. The studio is small, and while it has a microwave and a kettle, it lacks a sink so you have to wash things or get water from the bathroom. It's true that if someone else is staying in the apartment, you can hear quite a bit since they're connected. But, my friends stayed in the apartment, and honestly, it's very nice and comfortable. It has everything you need for a stay of several days, if you need it. This isn't the case if you rent the studio alone. The upgrade is worth it.
