Elizabeth's place was far better then we had expected. The place was very spacious and warm and the room had this great wooden bench that my daughter and I could both fit our suitcases on. It was a great proximity to both the dolphin encounter and this great sunset lookout spot across all of kaikoura! She gave great restaurant recommendations and gave us fun things to do outside of the dolphin encounter. We had the most amazing steak and lamb at The Green Dolphin and the most amazing gluten free seafood chowder at the Pier Hotel! We also had some great seafood at this bbq stand on the way to walk the Peninsula. We highly recommend you take the time to walk the peninsula. It had amazing views! Overall an amazing experience, kaikoura exceeded our expectations. Will definitely come again and stay at this great place!
