Catherine’s home was better than I expected. The views are breathtaking, and the breeze that blows through the house when you open the doors is a dream. My family and I felt right at home and could fully disconnect. Akaroa is a quick five around the bay, offering ample food options. For the adventurous guests, Akaroa Head Scenic Reserve was breathtaking. While the home is remote, it’s close enough to adventures that’ll keep you busy. Another fun surprise is the sheep that will keep you entertained from the deck and wake you in the mornings if you like to leave the windows open.
