A classic design with a modern twist. Feel at ease as you sip on a glass of wine at your dining table with a picturesque view of French Bay. Relax and unwind in style with modern furnishings and artwork that create an easy living mood.
Complete with all your essentials, from Wi-Fi to prepare your itinerary to air conditioning to keep you comfortable all year round and a smart TV to enjoy your evenings with a couple of TV shows.
50m to the beach and just a bit further to the local eateries and attractions. Head out and explore New Zealand's sole French settlement. Take the 3-minute walk to visit the Akaroa Museum or stroll down the garden of art at 'The Giants House' just a 10-minute walk up the road. If you want something a little more adventurous, head on out and try out the dolphin cruise.
