DeArna greeted us when we arrived and was friendly, responsive and easy to talk to. Her husband, Stan, was also friendly and easy to talk to.
The unit was very spacious with a separate bedroom and very large bathroom area. The bed and lounge were very comfortable, and the unit was beautifully decorated with interesting knick knacks. The views from every room, and from the front patio, were amazing.
DeArna provided condiments and oil for cooking; tea, coffee and milk, and some delicious chocolates.
DeArna supplied us with lots of suggestions for local activities, and when our travel plans looked like they might come unstuck, she offered a flexible checkout, and the opportunity to book a 3rd night there if needed.
We would stay here again, and highly recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Kaikoura.
