Location was perfect for walking to the Seal Colony along the path and the beach . The front Desk hours were very limited and the breakfast left a bit to be desired . But the location and the quaint courtyard make up for its downfalls.

Enjoyed the whale watching tour - the day was reasonably calm so no one was seasick thank goodness. Staff were informatiive and shared the story of the whales and dolphins. The map showing us the travel route was very helpful to understand the trnech and which direction and area we were headed to.

Kaikoura is a 2 hr drive from our home, so we regularly visit for long weekends. It's a special part of NZ where people and nature can interact. There's something special about how the mountains meet the sea. And of course the fresh seafood is spectacularChristinaNew Zealand - 10Scored 10
WhaleWatch trip was very good.
WhaleWatch trip was very good. Great cafes: Flo and Co has excellent coffee. Sime's Kitchen had great breakfast and lunch - vegan choices were delicious. Tipsy Foodies also recommended. Southern Paua shop and factory highly recommended - amazing range of jewellery, carvings and gifts. Some exquisite pounamu too. Best place to buy gifts in Kaikoura!! Novel Findings is a great bookshop and homewares shop - don't miss it! Loved the Ngāi Tahu artworks beside the highway, murals on the railway bridge and buildings. It's really worth checking the "Neat Places Kaikoura" website - lots of great suggestions for cool places and things to do in Kaikoura.

The wild life was definitely the highlight of the trip for me. I went swimming with dolphins and saw load of seals with their pups. Also the people in the town are super friendly and helpful. Of course the scenery is also breathtaking. Loads of nice eating places that serve great seafood.ErinNew Zealand - 10Scored 10

- 9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 62 reviewsCommunication from our host was excellent from the clear and concise directions to pick the keys up, to the welcomed text following up with us during our stay. The Host was excellent. The cottage has brilliant access to the beach, which allowed nice walks. Such a wonderful location we enjoyed the picturesque scenery each night. Accommodation was as described, and we all enjoyed a comfortable night's sleep. We would recommend anyone considering this place as your Kaikoura getaway to take the opportunity.Shane MageeNew Zealand
- From € 270.70 per night9.8Scored 9.8ExceptionalRated exceptional· 167 reviewsIt's our first trip to Kaikoura and we found everything's perfect here - clear instructions from Richard and Moira, finest equipment (basically everything we need from a house is available), superb sceneries (we got both open sea and mountain!), and quiet neighbourhood. Love our getaway weekend here and wish we could have stayed longer! It's cozy like a house but with a quality of 5*. Look forward to coming back again on our next trip to Kaikoura.
louisa_kathyNew Zealand - From € 113.35 per night8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 549 reviewsThe location could not be better. It was directly across the road from the beach. We had a stunning view of the ocean and coastal Kaikoura range. Restaurants and shops were walking distance away. It was also a nice touch that the hotel was so generous with the little extras - more tea, coffee (plunger, pods, and instant!), and hot chocolate than we could get through.
RichardNew Zealand - From € 78.67 per night9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 1,000 reviewsVery comfortable and thoughtful considerations that many other hotels in NZ we have stayed at didn’t have such as large bath sheets instead of tiny towels, a shelf near the sink to put your toiletry bag, etc. Wifi was excellent as well. Assigned parking spaces made it easy to come and go without having to worry about having a space when you returned.
