We had a wonderful stay at Pheonix Palm. One of the best places we've stayed in. DeArna and Stan were the perfect hosts - friendly, helpful and respectful. They provided lots of helpful info on what to see and do in Kaikoura. The unit was spacious, comfortable and relaxed, with lovely ocean and mountain views. Clean and tidy, with all the things a traveller would need. Walking distance from the wild seal colony and lots of other attractions and restaurants etc. We would have loved to have stayed for longer. Kaikoura is stunningly beautiful with lots to see. We'll definitely be back, and highly recommend Pheonix Palm to others.
