Charlottes airbnb was absolutely what we were needing. It is so private, quiet, super clean and warm. Although it rained on our trip out to Akaroa, we didn't mind as much because the space was easy to stay in and relax all day. The walk into town is about 20 mins and it is just a lovely walk. The airbnb is easy to get to, with parking straight out the front. We had all the amenities we needed, including delicious coffee. The spare room was appreciated for my snoring hubby... :) The bed was so comfortable, and we were able to heat up with the heat pump and electric blanket. Highly recommend driving into town if you are going for dinner, as it does get super cold at night in Akaroa. We loved Charlottes Airbnb and would 100% stay there again!
