Poorly equipped

House was poorly insulated. Towel holder screwed into plasterboard-loose. No salt, kitchen utensils few and far between. Needs a woman’s touch badly.

It was ok

We love Akaroa and were very happy to have a short walk into town which is what you can enjoy doing from this property. Disappointingly we hadn’t realised this house did not have a washing machine - we never thought to check given the price we were paying and the fact we were booking a 3 bedroom home. With a family of 2 boys we need a washing machine so had to pay $4 to use the local motels facilities each time we needed to do a load of washing. This meant we needed to drive into town (not what we had wanted to do) and then wait 40 mins for the machines and then cart everything back and try and dry the clothes. This was such a shame and really detracted from the stay. The house also needed a good clean, the floor was quite dirty and most of the surfaces and the couch were coated in dog hair. We have left with all our clothes covered in dog hair and my son who is allergic also struggled with so much animal hair (there was no vacuum cleaner available to try and clean the floors).

Christmas Magic

Stunning location and views, well designed layout, a very spacious, light and airy property. A lovely relaxing 5 days over Christmas! Perhaps more attention to detail with cleanliness of the property, plus some maintenance required. Outdoor sun umbrella and laundry facilities (1 tea towel for a 5 day stay....) would be just perfect! Many Thanks, look forward to returning!

Perfect Dog Friendly luxury stay

Thank you for having such a lovely property available, we adored it! The only things we could suggest were to fix one of the dining chairs which had a loose leg, the middle bedrrom had no lightbulb in the lamp and the two spare rooms need mattress upgrades as there is a lot of roll together! This would not stop me staying agai though, what a spot!
