Fantastic stay at Kaye’s in the pleasant Sumner neighborhood just east of Christchurch. Quick drive or walk to lots of great cafes, restaurants, grocery, and the beach. Amazing view from their backyard up in the hills, we enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub during the evening and later on quietly at night to look at the stars above. Kaye and Johnny were super friendly and had solid advice for tourists like ourselves. We were also fans of the neighbor cat Archie who stopped by to say hello.
