📅 Book Your Christchurch Stay

Make yourself at home in a bright, comfortable townhouse close to the heart of Christchurch. Book your stay and enjoy a private courtyard, full kitchen, modern comforts, and easy access to the city’s best dining, shopping, events, and attractions. 🏡✨



Guest Access:

During your stay, you'll have exclusive access to all the amenities and spaces within the property.



The Neighborhood:

Staying in Christchurch Central, you really get the best of both worlds—everything is just a short walk or bike ride away, but it still feels relaxed and easygoing.



You're right on Manchester Street, which makes getting around super simple. In the mornings, I love grabbing coffee from one of the local favorites like Child Sister or Unknown Chapter—both just a few minutes' walk from the front door. If you're into fresh produce or unique eats, Riverside Market is a must-visit. It's a buzzing spot where locals grab lunch, browse boutique stores, or meet up with friends over drinks.



The Avon River winds through the area and is perfect for a stroll or even punting if you're feeling touristy (locals still do it!). And if you're into art and culture, you’re spoiled—Christchurch Art Gallery, street murals, and pop-up exhibitions are all part of the local vibe here.



There’s always something happening nearby—night markets, festivals, live music, and great eats on New Regent Street. But despite being in the thick of it, the street where this townhouse sits is surprisingly peaceful. It’s that kind of hidden-gem location locals love—close to the action, but tucked away just enough to feel like home.



Getting Around:

One of the best things about staying here is how easy it is to get around—no car needed if you're planning to explore central Christchurch!



- On Foot: Most of the city’s top attractions—Riverside Market, New Regent Street, Cathedral Square, and the Botanic Gardens—are all within a 10–15 minute walk. It’s a flat, walkable area with plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops along the way.

- By Bike or Scooter: Christchurch is a super bike-friendly city. You’ll often see locals riding electric scooters or bikes around town. You can easily rent one using apps like Beam or Lime, and there are plenty of places to park them near the townhouse.

- Public Transport: Bus stops are just a few minutes’ walk away, and buses are frequent and reliable. The Bus Interchange (main terminal) is also nearby if you're heading further across the city or to the suburbs.

- Driving & Parking: If you’re renting a car or driving, street parking is available (some paid, some free depending on time/day). Free street parking is available but limited.



Being right in the city means you can access main roads and highways quickly for day trips to places like Lyttelton, Akaroa, or the Port Hills.



Other Things to Note:

You’ll receive a trusted welcome link after booking with all property details, access codes, Wi-Fi, and easy instructions for your stay. Please take a moment to complete it — it helps us prepare everything for your arrival.



Portacot and high chair are available upon request for a small fee of $25.



🅿️ Free street parking is available but limited.\



★ SAFETY DEPOSIT OR DAMAGE WAIVER REQUIRED ★



We understand that accidents can happen. To help protect the space and ensure a worry-free stay, all reservations require either a damage waiver or a safety deposit.



You can choose the option that works best for you: a non-refundable damage waiver ranging from $39 up to $79, which covers accidental damage and normal wear and tear (no deductible) or a refundable safety deposit of $450, which will be returned after checkout as long as no damage is found and all house rules are followed.



If you've already purchased Damage Protection Insurance through a third-party provider, feel free to share your policy with us-we're happy to

review it and we may consider waving the requirement based on your coverage.



Please note: The damage waiver does not cover damage caused by house rule violations.



🔑 Only one property access key/fob is provided as standard. Additional key/fob must be requested before arrival. A replacement fee of NZD $250 applies for each lost key or fob.
