Alpine Manuka View Cabin

Best location for enjoying local life and great stars at night. Everything was prepared for comfortable stay.

Fresh air and landscape

2 shipping containers with piece in centre for lounge kitchen and what windows and doors they had were single glazed. Not even cold that night and at night was like an icebox. Did have fire but we didn't think it would be sooo cold that time of year. Heat pump was in useless spot as when you opened the bedroom door the heat just hit back of the door so no heat went into bedrooms which were both in the shipping container part that the metal was just painted so no insulation at all. The beds only just fit in with about 30cm to squeeze in one side. The lamps were way lower than the bed in one room and you couldn't turn it off without getting out of bed. The mattress protector was stained which was an absolute turn off. The tub seats in the lounge had covers over them with vinyl underneath that was flaking everywhere wasn't much left to be fair and we're well passed being used. Definitely not soundproof as advertised which is actually why we took it we couldn't really hear tv properly due to music coming from the house. The bathroom was a hacked together job that people could see from outside if you were sitting on the toilet. The shower over bath because they were against the shipping container they had dropped some vinyl down that curled in the bottom so water run back into bath. The gas was hooked through to a 9kg gas bottle. The microwave was soo high up that we had to use a stool to use it they did have a step stool but when you pushed open the microwave door the whole microwave moved. The red cups needed bleaching. I hate doing bad reviews but this was super disappointing considering the beautiful location. I very much doubt this would pass any building compliance but that is my opinion

房东人很好，房间干净卫生，位于一个单独且安静的位置，距离凯库拉开车十几分钟非常方便。

双人床的床脚容易磕到脚，需要注意一下！除此之外其它都挺好的！

Beautiful view. Warm inside

It was all good

Friendly welcoming owner. Comfortable cabin on a working farm let.

Helpful owner. Very communicative. Sweet dogs. Beautiful views and lovely fireplace.

N/A

It was a lovely spacious cabin that had everything we needed and more. It was in the perfect spot. The owners were very welcoming and had thought of everything.

That we couldn't stay longer.😊

The accomodating owners.

Booking.com completed messed up our stay. We arrived to find our booking was not confirmed and owner kindly accommodated us as we had driven a long way and had nowhere else to stay, with a small child also. We will NOT use Booking.com again as this is the second time that a miscommunication has occurred between owner and site.

Country setting, wood stove for heat

The electrical breaker tripping. Possibly could replace the sensitive breaker

The location was awesome, away from everything but less than 10 minutes drive from town. The views of the mountains are just breathtaking you can’t help but relax. The cabin itself is well appointed and very comfortable

Absolutely stunning views, beautiful and well kept accommodation with friendly hosts. The wood fire kept us toasty and warm and all the beds were super comfy! Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely location, well cleaned, maintained, and firewood stocked. Comfy beds and bathroom was nice.

A bit hard to find in the rain and dark but that's about it.

I stayed at the Alpine Manuka View Cabin for two weeks- it is in a very quiet rural area (but close enough to Kaikoura to drive there easily within 10-15 minutes) with a fantastic view of the mountains and of the stars and the milky way at night. The host David and his son were quick to respond to any questions or issues I had. I really felt at home here and would return for sure if I will (hopefully) come back to Kaikoura some day.

Cosy cabin with all required amenities, and amazing mountain views.

Main bedroom is tiny for the bed size but ok to get around.

The nice country spot near the hills was quiet and the perfect location for us, and still only 5 minutes drive to town. The cabin was clean and the layout extremely comfortable for our family of 3. It had everything we needed, especially after our day of mountain biking in the drizzle. We'd definitely stay again.

Beautiful location close to coast & mountains. Rural setting. Innovative building

Just a suggestion - would have been lovely to have some milk in fridge on arrival

Very quiet location, sheep friendly. Had everything you need. Owner's very friendly.

Beautiful location. Well stocked kitchen facilities. Wonderfully stocked firewood and great fire. Warm and cosy

Main bedroom a little on the small side

One of the best places we have stayed at on our NZ trip. The cabin has magnificent mountain views and is located in a quiet and peaceful area. The kitchen was well equipped and everything was perfectly clean. The host was very nice and friendly. We very much enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place.

Beautiful location, views amazing. Property had everything we needed

Bedroom a little tight on space.

Cosy, generous size! Fabulous

Nothing

Beautiful view and a very comfortable cabin with lots of space and a very well stocked kitchen

Fantastic location and facilities. Highly recommend for any stay in the Kaikoura region, just minutes from the town but peaceful and tranquil.

Nothing

The place is lovely-so good we went back again. Owners couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. The cabin was immaculate. Everything you want in a home from home-and more. The perfect place to stay. Check out the whale watching and fishing trips while you are there.

Nothing really.

Cosy and extremely comfortable cabin with everything you need. Very clean and tidy. Excellent kitchen facilities. Fantastic views of the mountains. Very private and quiet.

Nothing - it’s fab!

Didn’t get to see it

Warm and cozy cabin with heat pump and fire ...two small bedrooms but perfect for us . Would recommend 100% for a nice getaway .

To be honest there wasn't anything .We were extremely happy .
