A wonderful modern apartment in Akaroa on the Banks Peninsula, located on the second level of a small 2-story apartment block. The apartment is conveniently located on the main street in the village and features some of the best views in Akaroa.
Our holiday apartment is a fantastic getaway for a couple or a family. Light and spacious, just the recipe for a relaxing holiday by the sea. A separate kitchenette and large living area allows enough room to spread out. The balcony has tables and seating from which you can enjoy the views and the atmosphere of this beautiful seaside town.
Free off-street parking is provided for one car.
Literally in the heart of Akaroa, restaurants, shops, the main wharf and tour operators are just a minute's walk away. The school, with children's play area, and a cinema is within easy walking distance as well.
Tourist activities include both dolphin watching and swimming with dolphins, guided kayaking, fishing, surfing or walks, and a relaxed village around which you can just stroll and enjoy the views, the people, the atmosphere.
There’s a good playground if travelling with children close to the very family-friendly beach. A pleasant drive by car to the outer bays of the Peninsula will find some of the best unspoiled beaches in Canterbury. The village boasts a good supermarket, many cafes, and a host of wonderful restaurants. Akaroa harbour offers great walks and hikes, along with boutique shopping, galleries, wineries and the famous Barry Bay cheese factory.
Akaroa is 1.5 hours from Christchurch city, and has a regular mini-bus service operating between Christchurch City, and both the airport terminals if you’re arriving from another city.
We pride ourselves on offering a unique and memorable accommodation experience - one that will ensure you want to return to visit Akaroa and us again.

We loved the waterfront location, especially during the quiet season. It is a lovely little apartment. The main bedroom has a wonderful outlook, as does the very comfortable living area. We also enjoyed our croissant breakfast on the balcony!It would have been helpful to know in advance that the kitchen facilities were rather limited, although the Russell Hobbs bench oven was helpful. Thank you for the opportunity to stay here.
This visit was just that we could show my brother the beauty of Akaroa. It’s one of our favourite NZ destinations. Our accommodation overlooking the wharf was perfect for him to see the lovely scenery and the bay. Great clean apartment with quality furnishings. It will be our first choice when we return again.

Spacious comfortable apartment with wonderful views and perfect location
We stayed two nights - and wished we were staying for a week or longer! This apartment had everything we needed and the large lounge and balcony meant that when we had 4 adults visit for my birthday lunch there was ample space for everyone. We will definitely stay here again snd for longer next time!
Cosy apartment. Great location. Easy access to Black Cat cruises on main wharf. Easy communication with property manager.

Fantastic apartment in a magical place
We loved our stay here. Instructions were so easy to follow and apartment is in the best place in town. Amazing views and everything on the doorstep. Apartment had everything we needed and even had games and toys which catered for the kids. We couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you!
