The villa was a nice base to explore Christchurch and matched well with the expectations provided by the website. The apartment was a good fit for our family, and kitchen was well provided for. Everything was clean and in good order, and there were no issues checking in. The apartment is a short walk to the main park in town, and about 20 minute pleasant walk through the park to down town Christchurch. There is not that much immediately around the apartment, but with a car it was not at all an issue for us. We were very happy with our stay and would recommend the apartment for other visitors to Christchurch.
