Handy location.
Pros:

The property was in a good location but still only a short drive to central Kakoura. The property was well equipped.

Cons:

The outside are was not as clean as it could be and the only fresh air was from opening the front sliding door which was an issue with a heavy smoker next door - unfortunate.

Ideal for a quieter out of town location to go whale watching.
Pros:

Only a five minute drive to town, had a studio but was more than adequate for a two night stay.

Pour une étape pas un séjour !
Pros:

Propre , facile , bien organisé !

Cons:

Il n’y a pas d’évier , faire petite vaisselle dans lavabo salle de bain est un peu moyen ! Absence de vue , les chambres sont des petits compartiments les uns à côté des autres … prochaine fois dans un endroit aussi beau que Kaikoura prendre chambre avec vue !
