Relaxing stay by the sea

This property was warm and clean, with amazing views. It was nicely decorated with lots of fluffy blankets and pillows. It had everything we needed and it was a real bonus to be able to take our dog with us on holiday. It was an excellent location!

Great little gem

Kakanui is a beautiful small town with lots of activities to offer. Kim is easy to communicate with. The place is clean and has what you need to eat at home and sleep well. Comfy beds, and warm blankets. The sunroom is lovely with a fantastic view of Kakanui beach and the rivermouth. Nice garden to walk around the property. Kind neighbors too. We will stay there again

We came with a group of girlfriends and our kids, and one dog. It was a beautiful Bach and such a great property for kids and pets to run around. Facilities were great and we were just a short walk from the beach- loved it! We will be back !
