Jane was the best host and no detail was too much. She made sure we were comfortable and felt at home. The accommodations were lovely and peaceful. I was able to do yoga on the deck overlooking the gorgeous view. Her attention to detail in her amazing garden was stunning.

Glenwood Akaroa Bush Retreat - Kanuka Hut is located in Akaroa and offers a terrace and barbecue facilities. This bed and breakfast features a garden and free private parking.

Guests at the bed and breakfast can enjoy a continental breakfast, and breakfast in the room is also available.

It’s as described: fully self-contained; amazingly quiet and beautiful setting; comfortable and clean. Despite being ‘off-the- grid’, the bathroom was brilliant and I never had a problem with cell phone signal etc. Furnishings and fittings - including a robe that actually fit me - were pretty luxurious. The owner, Ken, went above and beyond to support my visit - including dropping me down to town one day. Town is a walkable 40-50mins - even at my plodding pace - but it’s up a very steep hill on the way back. It would be a walker’s paradise - if I was a walker - tracks off everywhere! Stars have to be seen to be believed.

We stayed with Brendon and Gail for three wonderful days. Their house is slightly above the hustle and bustle of the shops and restaurants (a 10 minute walk) allowing for peaceful nights and a great view of the harbour. The house is spacious and the beds and bathrooms are of the highest standard, but what really stands out is Brendan and Gail’s hospitality. They think of every need and are fun to talk to. The breakfast on the balcony is fabulous. You can cook on a barbecue and enjoy a spa. Overall a five-star hotel experience, but with a genuine human touch thrown in. Feels like a home away from home.
