The house faces the sea and is backed by green mountains, which is particularly suitable for vacation living. We will come again next time we are on vacation!

Quick 1 night getaway

Great location with stunning views just uphill of the highway. Easy access to South Bay and the Kaikoura town center. Beds were comfortable and the house has recently been updated. No dining table inside the bach so you have to eat in the living room, but a good outside table in fine weather (with amazing views).
