A spacious and comfortable home that was a really great base for exploring Kaikoura for a few days. Really nice accommodation with thoughtful Kiwiana decoration. The sunroom with a view of the mountains was a great place to chill. Well-appointed appliances including smart TV and good broadband. Handy location with off-street parking made for an awesome place to stay.
Being on the State Highway, trucks do go past on their way to and from the ferry, but with the elevated setting of the house, the noise isn't intrusive. The bedrooms are at the back of the house and we didn't notice when sleeping. This definitely does not detract from a great holiday home but is worth mentioning for those more sensitive to noise.
Great value and will definitely stay again next time we are in Kaikoura.
