This apartment is nestled amongst beautiful rolling hills right in front of a gorgeous lake. The stunning location, birds chirping and hearing the water lapping on the shore will easily transport anyone into total relaxation. The apartment has magnificent views of the water and mountain backdrop with comfortable french inspired furnishings. I felt I could easily be staying in a little boutique hotel in France! Inside was clean and comfortable and Jean-Louise was a wonderful host. She was easily contactable and helped us with our accommodation when we had a mix up with travel plans. The apartment was easy to find, parking was ample and check-in was a breeze. I would highly recommend Jan-Louise's place to anyone looking to stay in beautiful Akaroa.
