Fantastic views. Good size 3bdrm home. Well appointed. Balcony 3 seater couch & chairs could be a tad more comfortable. Disappointing we had to take our own sheets & towels for the nightly fee we paid. Driveway is hideously steep & there wasn’t a house number on the fence.

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful home in Akaroa. The location could not have been better—close enough to town for convenience, yet perfectly positioned to enjoy the peace and privacy of the area. The views overlooking Akaroa Harbour were absolutely amazing, especially in the early morning and at sunset. We found ourselves lingering on the deck just to take it all in.The house itself was very well set up with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, the living spaces were welcoming, and the bedrooms were cozy and thoughtfully arranged. It truly felt like a home away from home.Making the reservation through VRBO was simple and straightforward, and communication was smooth from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be staying here again on our next trip to Akaroa. Highly recommend!
