Love the serene location just on the edge of Kaikoura. The chalet is huge, cozy and clean. Looks, feels and smells newly renovated and not to mention its a hidden gem in the town! There were Deers and Alpacas surrounding the chalet that the host provides delicious food to be fed if you would like.

We enjoyed being there so much we asked if we could extend our stay. Sadly, they were booked so we were unable to. However, due to how much we enjoyed our time there, we are hoping to come back next year and stay again. The cottage is so comfortable that we cancelled our dinner reservations and grabbed food at the local grocery and ate in both nights. With the ocean on one side, mtns on the other, why would you want to be anywhere else? Extremely well equipped with everything you could need. Comfortable, relaxing, and beautiful setting all rolled up in one. Thank you for all the special touches included in your cottage. Our favorite place in NZ so far.

I recently stayed here and had a fantastic experience. The highlight was undoubtedly the stunning mountain view, especially in the mornings, we had fantastic time here. The kitchen was fully equipped with all the necessary facilities, making it easy to prepare food. The room was big and exceptionally clean and comfortable, providing a pleasant stay. I will definitely return for another visit.

Friendly cheerful staff. Easy check-in. We got a two bedroom unit upstairs. Love the room space and tvs in each room plus the lounge (however, we couldn't get the master room tv to work). Loved that it had a full kitchen. Loved the views. Loved the shower. Comfortable beds.
