The executive apartment was very large, comfortable and immaculately clean. The deck had beautiful ocean views - we saw a fur seal and penguins right from our deck. It's within walking distance of the penguin viewing area and petrified forest. It is a perfect place to enjoy Curio Bay.

Kākā Point Beach House
Kaka Point South Otago
This vacation home featured laundry facilities and barbecue grills.
Loved our stay at Jeff's place! The location was excellent, and waking up to peace and quiet, with only a short walk to the beach was amazing! We stayed during a particularly windy weekend so hung up the linens in the bathroom as we weren't confident they would stay put. Would definitely stay ...
