Great location. I don’t have a car so it is around 10 mins walk to city center and whale watching, 15 mins to supermarket. Close to restaurants and convenience store. Room is spacious with cooking facilities and balcony, and the water pressure is strong. Staff are friendly :) Would love to stay here again when visit Kaikoura next time.

Everything! Beautiful location, very secluded, which was also desired on our part, as we wanted to relax here for 5 days / 4 nights before our return journey. The furnishings are very high quality, kitchen well equipped, TV with app function. The bathtub is amazing. Saw dolphins twice from the bed with the telescope (also available in the house). The terrace at the back is quite sheltered from the wind, I could even sunbathe at 16 degrees and I wasn't cold. A clear recommendation!

    Toilet was surprisingly in pristine condition, considering that a lot of these motels or similar can be quite old. Ceiling heater in toilet was so warm and nice because it was the first we saw on the trip, but subsequently realised that was quite a common heater. Stayed in cosy 1 bedroom apartment, with a small kitchen for me to prep breakfast for next day when we head off! A pity it was just for a 1night stay, since it was a stopover betweenPicton ferry terminal and Lake tekapo. but was definitely a good 1 night short stay!

    No breakfast studio flat. Walking distance to train & Whale Watching. Everything I needed in the studio flat. Separate kitchen with all the gadgets I needed (like a can opener, cutting board, microwave bowls etc) which I haven't got in all the other motels stayed in hence the high praise & the fridge was in the closed kitchen - lovely nights sleep thank you.
