I'm a leisure traveller and usually make it a point to stay at the best accommodation i can find. This visit to Kaikoura however i was there for a very brief stay (just one night) so i decided to be a bit frugal. I was pleasantly surprised when went there. The property was right next to the beach, had ample space and was well managed. But the highlight of the trip was the hospitality. The hosts were super kind and friendly, and put up with my capricious requests at odd hours with warmth and generosity of spirit. Was it the fanciest place I've lived it? No. It is purposefully comfortable without being extravagant, and does show its age in a few places (i did pick the economy room though so it may have had something to do with it), but i slept well, had nice peaceful surroundings and everything was walkable. You don't go to Kaikoura to see the walls of a hotel room. You go there to enjoy breathtaking scenery and warmth of its people and this place delivered both!

Beautiful location. Rooms are styled nicely. Clean and had everything we needed to cook in the room. The accomodation was full on our first night and others around us were noisy but was very quiet on the second night. Will be back!
