Great location with everything we needed. Within walking distance of everything in South bay and a short drive to Kaikoura town. Couldn’t have asked for better.

Great place for a Kaikoura visit. We will be back. Close to Kiakoura main street, and right on the bay. Hosts always answered our questions within minutes. We had a great time there and would highly recommend.
