Korasview a welcome haven
Sarah’s place was a welcome haven to explore the Kaikōura area. The house was spacious and clean with a well equipped kitchen. We especially enjoyed watching the sunset over the mountains from the comfortable deck chairs. Sarah was friendly and welcoming and had great tips for local attractions. One of our favourite New Zealand stops. Highly recommended.

Wonderful views
Very nice clean and spacious property. We can say nice things about the entire property but the best part was how quiet it was, and the beautiful views.

Such a gorgeous property. A lovely hidden retreat with all the amenities needed and only a short drive from Kaikora. Views from all angles form snow cap mountains to the ocean

Incredible views
Had a lovely couple of days at this wonderful property. Enjoyed spectacular views of mountains, sea, sunrises and sunsets. Our young daughter liked feeding the cows, sheep and goats. A really lovely house- pleasure to be there.

Terry and I both love nature and Kaikoura and all it has to offer. We are based in Christchurch. We have planted 1000s of native plants to create a natural haven and to attract native bird life.

Why they chose this property

Kora’s View is peaceful and is surrounded by nature. Friend farm animals greet you, there is an abundance of bird life that is attractive to the abundance of native plants we have planted . The deck is huge and invites relaxation.
