We had a fantastic stay at Karen's place!! The accommodation was just as listed but really even better in person. The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We appreciated the WiFi and TV both of which worked brilliantly. One of our favorite features was the private deck where we could enjoy a view of the ocean as well as Karen's lovely garden. Karen was a friendly and responsive host. Her instructions were clear and her place was very easy to find and in a very convenient location for anything you might want to do in Kaikoura. Sure wish we could have stayed longer!
