Michael and Jackie are remarkably generous, gracious, friendly, and highly engaging hosts. Barrington the dog is great fun too. ;-) They did a great job of making us feel so much at home, as if we were not just guests but something like long-lost friends or even family. They have a really lovely immaculate home in a beautiful neighborhood. The listing title refers to "Water views." What a masterpiece of understatement! WOW. All their views of Cass Bay are utterly and absolutely spectacular! There's also pretty easy access to the water's edge. Breakfast (mmm!) was amazingly insanely bountiful and delicious. Just cannot say enough good things about every aspect of our experience. We would stay there again in a heartbeat. Or less. ;-) My wife and I will definitely keep Michael and Jackie in mind if and when our travels bring us back to Christchurch.
