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 spectacular

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.

Very easy to find way to attractions,town lovely and clean.Plenty of eating places,ones we used were all excellent and value for money.Only thing we regretted was we missed the Whale Watch tour as it was blowing hard both full days we were there and there were no sailings.Will have to go back again.
The house is in a quiet landscape with surrounding grassland with cows, sheep, rabbits. Aspects that really stand out include the views- the mountains behind the house, the sun rising over the ocean in front of the house, and the house itself, which is large, with an upstairs loft bedroom and very comfortable living room downstairs. Indigo has furnished and decorated it beautifully. We really enjoyed her friendly hospitality. Kaikoura is nearby with fine walks and restaurants.
Large well equipped unit. The kitchen had everything we needed and we could get more supplies when needed. Comfortable bed. The balcony sitting out area had lovely views of the mountains. Even though it was on the roadside there was very little road noise. Only 1km into the main town with plenty of places to eat close by including a New World supermarket. Laundry was cheap $2 per wash and $2dry and you can hang clothes out if you prefer. There is a bbq area we didn’t use it.
Beautiful location, and though out of Kaikoura it was only a five minute drive...well worth it as the views were incredible,
hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The hot tub a real bonus, not to mention outdoor space and extras to entertain kids available in the shared lounge/dining room. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again in the future...so lovely, thank you Jen and Paul.
Luke and Kylie were fabulous hosts, Luke greeted us and gave us great tip on a hiking trail that we did the day after our arrival. We saw hundreds of fur seals, got a great workout and a wonderful lunch at the Pier Hotel.
The place has a great view, walking distance to town and rail line.
Kylie even drove us to the station on day of departure. Would highly recommend this property.
Very 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.
We enjoyed our stay at Bay Cottages by the ocean. You only had to go across the street and you are at the bay. The room was pretty large with a complete kitchen. The owner informed us of all of the interesting places to see on the Kaikoura peninsula. It was a great area to view sea lions. The accommodations did not disappoint.
Lovely 2 bedroom home away from home in Kaikoura. Would definitely stay here again. Nicely decorated, good location with parking, enough comfortable beds for our family of 5 with 3 adult sized children.
Lovely stay Reception was welcoming and helpful The unit was warm, comfortable, clean and tidy After staying in 3 previous horels/motels on our journey south it was an absolute god send
Spacious studio (bigger than my first appartment), well equipped, nice views, and once again like in all the motels in NZ so far super comfy beds with good pillows and duvets.
