Fiona was easy to deal with, welcoming and friendly. The rooms were well appointed and the views stunning. A very relaxing place to return to after a days sightseeing. So glad we chose to stay here in the city as I feel it was a great way to get to know Dunedin.

One of the best properties I have ever stayed at. Absolutely great location, huge house with large living room and fireplace. Big kitchen/dining area that is incredibly well equipped, including coffee (Nespresso), an assortment of spices, teas, sugar, and more — exactly what you don’t find in corporate run properties. The hosts are amazing and very responsive. The carport is sheltered and large. The views are amazing, and the conservatory is a wonderful place to sit with a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night. Very centrally located, but high on a hill, so you do need a car for groceries. Very highly recommended!

Absolute perfect gem of a house and location for a Dunedin vacation. Beautiful accommodations and ambiance. Fiona & Phil are superb owners and ensured everything was perfect for us upon arrival. Personal touches, house functionality, and safety briefing were all greatly appreciated. Highly, highly, highly recommend this for anyone wanting to experience the best of Dunedin.

Beautiful house that looks newly renovated with soft, plush linens. Walkable to restaurants and cafes in the Octagon with a nice little workout coming back up the hill. Fiona met us when we arrived and gave us great tips where to go (we saw lots of penguins at the OPERA, magnificent gardens at the Larnach Castle and awe-inspiring beach cliffs at Tunnel Beach). Especially nice touch that they provisioned the kitchen with snacks and milk!

Wonderful house and hosts

This was by far the nicest home we stayed in for our whole trip and perhaps even since we have been travelling with the kids! Fiona was an incredible host and she thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. If you are ever in Dunedin, this is the place to stay! Highly recommended! Thanks so much!!

Fantastic stay!

Our group was in town for the World Cup and needed a long-term place close to City Centre. Fiona and Phil’s lovely home was perfect. Roomy, with all the amenities we needed and fantastic location with amazing views. They were very quick to reply to questions and gave terrific recommendations for local restaurants and attractions. Definitely recommended.

Special Touches

We found City Views to be a very comfortable, warm, home presented to a high standard, with attention to detail. We enjoyed meeting the friendly, helpful hosts. The property's proximity to the city centre was very convenient and the harbour view special. Several of our friends travel widely and were suitably impressed!

Perfect place to stay

Such a wonderful place to stay. Conveniently located, stunning views and they had thought of everything you might need for your stay. Fiona was a fantastic host and nothing was a problem. We originally had 8 adults staying but the baby sitter fell through and we needed to add our 2.5 year old granddaughter. The house is beautiful, clean and warm. I highly recommend this wonderful property in the heart of Dunedin. We will definitely book again.

Beyond Amazing!!

This property exceeded our expectations. The space was charming, with so many personal touches that made it feel like home away from home. The view took our breath away time after time. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms accommodated our group of 7 adults very well. The hosts welcomed us personally to show us the property and ensure that we had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We appreciated all of the tips they gave us on the must sees and hidden gems around Dunedin.

5 STAR Accommodation, Feels Like a Home

Host made it so easy as arrival time changed a few times due to flight issues. The online photos are the MOST accurate view of accommodation I have see around the world!!! It's like a home with all the comforts, contemporary furnished with well equipped laundry & kitchen. Spacious living area and bedrooms that made it so easy to be there with several adults. The little extras in the home were thoughtful. Logs for the fire. Heaters and electric blankets... Thanks for the lollies....
