It was just perfect. Amazing owner. Super friendly and quick TAT. Amazing decor. Awesome amenities - fully equipped kitchen, games, heater, bathtub, binoculars to watch dolphins directly from the cabins - we saw multiple dolphins, a kayak, a boat from the cabin given its great location. We could see milky way one out of two nights that we spent at the cabin. Super clean with premium amenities. MUST MUST MUST STAY in KAIKOURA.
