Kaikoura is my favorite place in NZ and now I have also found my favorite place to stay there. Michele and her husband are wonderful and very accommodating hosts. Both apartments are very nice, located in a peaceful garden and furnished with great attention to detail. One is with, the other without kitchen and washing machine, but both are very well equipped, absolutely clean, the beds and sofas are very comfortable and high quality. The ocean is just behind the door. For me it was the perfect place to relax and I look forward to coming back soon.
