Premier Host

Beautiful house, great host, fantastic views

Richelle was a great host; the house was well prepared, including milk and coffee pods. She made sure the heating was on for our arrival which was quite nice! The views, as the title of the property says, are amazing, looking out over the bay. It's located in McAndrew Bay on the peninsula, and it's a quick drive back into Dunedin, or further down the peninsula to see the seals and sea lions. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Amazing property

Totally enjoyed our stay. Our host was amazing and the studio apartment was exactly what it promised plus more. Wish we could have stayed much longer!

Full size house with a view.

Good option for a short stay. Steep drive with flat area to park. Approx 15 steps to get into the house but then all rooms are in the one level. Good sized rooms, full kitchen and 2 showers/toilets with bath in one. Lovely view to the south in a quiet area only 10 mins drive to centre of Dunedin and less to local supermarkets. Owner accepted our booking at short notice which was appreciated.
