Fantastic place to stay in Akaroa, very well set up! We loved sitting on the deck looking out over the stunning view & looking at the stars from the spa. Hosts were extremely helpful.

Fabulous place to stay. Lovely and private - yes, it’s a great couples getaway but frankly, ladies, it’s too good for your man! Come on your own and have some quiet R and R just for yourself. Beautiful spot for rejuvenation.
