This is one of the more memorable Airbnbs we have stayed in. The pictures, lovely as they are, don't quite do it justice. It feels quirky and interesting, yet comfortable. The covered deck is lovely. The whole place was very clean and felt retro-brand-new. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach, where we watched dolphins playing in stormy waves. And Kaikoura is a short drive (mostly on a quiet side road, not the 1) with New World, cafes, an restaurants. Really wish we'd stayed more than just the one night.
