Lovely apartment.

Lovely little place in super quiet location. Nicely laid out little apartment with separate bedroom and bathroom from living area. A small bedside table or shelf might be an idea to save reaching down to the floor to turn the alarm clock off on your phone. Fantastic hosts that dished us up some slices of their own cake as they felt sorry for us dining on microwave meals. Top stuff!

The property is showing some age but this is made up by the staff. The rooms are spacious and clean. Isn’t only a 10min drive from Akaroa which has plenty of food choices.

Overall this unit was nice and spacey, it was clean, but there was some areas that could have a little more attention, there was no table for you to sit a cup of tea on in front of sofa, also only one bedside table, the linen and blankets very nice, and comfortable bed. the location is a little bit further out of town, but is close to a pub for meals and drinks, also a little shop that also has a bar and simple meals. The view from the room is great looking straight onto the waters. I would stay again but not sure if the rate we paid $190.00 a night was a fare rate.
