A fabulous B&B
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful B&B. The room was very spacious, and tastefully decorated. A nice breakfast was provided in the morning. Would stay again if ever back in the area.Fabulous

We found the front unit roomy and very comfortable. Double curbless shower is fantastic. All amenities we could need are included. Quiet, convenient, on site parking. Four-star accommodation.

Great friendly vibe
I found the host really friendly and she made us feel very comfortable. She even offered to take us to the train station. Great new bathroom and decent sized room. Breakfast was nice but no option of anything cooked . Overall I thought it was a bit pricey.

This was a wonderful home away from home, only sad that we didn’t get to stay longer. We felt very welcome. The rooms themselves are beautiful with very comfortable beds, beautiful decor and honestly I think the best shower I have ever had in my life. Cannot thank them enough!

Accommodations were very nice. Bedroom was large with a love seat. Bathroom was large with snail shower. We had access to a second adjoining room with kitchenette and dinning table plus sitting area. Bay is across the street with no buildings obstructing view. Convenient to dining.

Lovely bed and breakfast! Great, clean, spacious room. Nice location directly across from the beach. Luke was helpful and an excellent host. He provided excellent tips and we really enjoyed staying in Kaikoura - we saw whales, fur seals and an albatross....all part of the local fun!

Great family room
We only had one night here but would have enjoyed longer. Room (queen and single beds) large and well laid out just off lounge / kitchenett area. Beds comfortable and lovely spacious shower / bathroom with off street parking. Breakfast was continental and generous. Loved our stay here and would highly recommend.

Great location, slightly out of the main hustle of the town. The Forest room was newly refurbished, very large and clean (slept 3 akthough we were just a couple). We also had use of a separate adjacent kitchenette/sitting room with a TV hich was great. Luke, our host, was very helpful with information about the area and provided us with a lovely continental breakfast. Highly recommended
