This place is wonderful and relaxing, the beds are comfortable and the facilities are all very clean. You have solar lighting in the tents and are able to charge your phones/speakers/power banks etc. The shared kitchen has everything you could need plus a wicked view. There is nothing better than chilling out on the deck of your tent or in the tent and looking out to see the view. 10/10 recommend this place - no real complaints. Parking is only a short distance away from the tents - maybe a 1 minute walk if that. Harry is very lovely and only a text away if you need anything.

Zara New Zealand

Akaroa glamping was the perfect mix of comfort and roughing it. We wanted for nothing and loved the attention to detail. Thanks again

Corey Australia

The privacy and location and views. Would definitely recommend

Sarah New Zealand

Great spot, beautiful views! Amazing facilities and the bed was super comfy. Loved the extra little touches! Highly recommend if you’re after a getaway!

Melanie Australia

Absolutely beautiful location and lovely and private

Nerissa New Zealand

a fantastic and unique experience! what incredible idea to propose that

Florent France

Isolated, didn't have to talk to anyone, beautiful, secluded spot, yet so close to the township.

Ian New Zealand

We started our NZ holiday with a couple of days relaxing at Akaroa Glamping. Driving up the narrow road, we missed the small sign indicating the entrance to the property but found it on our way back. There was a note for us indicating which tent had been allocated to us. There are two tents on the property but no-one was staying in the other one. Our tent was furnished beautifully, the bed was comfy and even had hot water bottles. The views from the verandah and a small sitting area on a lower level were spectacular. There is everything you need in the shared kitchen to cook a meal, which we did on the first night and then bacon and eggs the following morning. You have your own bathroom which was fancier then I was expecting. The owner dropped by the first morning checking all was OK and to bring a new ice-pack (though we had bought a bag of ice to ensure our wine and champagne was ice-cold). We had a storm one night but felt very safe, warm and cosy inside the tent.

Louise Australia

Prefect place to watch the Milky Way. Beautiful stargazing!
