Would stay here again! Great view, spacious apartment, everything at walking distance.

P New Zealand

Location was excellent with a lovely outlook over the harbour and so close to everything. The place was very comfortable. We would like to stay here again next time we come to Akaroa.

Deborah New Zealand

Perfect location along the waterfront, was so nice waking up to the tranquil waters and mountains of Akaroa. The accommodation was clean and had all the amenities. Great for families.

Amy New Zealand

Excellent central location to anything the town had to offer. Tastefully decorated with plenty of space. Designated parking. Easy walking distance to everything. Faultless in every way.

Joe Australia

Sam New Zealand

Loved everything about our village visit, apartment, location and booking experience

Sharlene New Zealand

I liked everything about my stay.The facilities were tip top.I especially liked havingva coffee machine.Nothing like a good coffee to start the day off right.

Margaret New Zealand

The location, right at the end of the main wharf, was excellent, as was the view. There were several nice restaurants just on the next block. The free parking space was just steps away from the stairs to the apartment. Communication with the host was easy and fast.

Mable New Zealand

Amazing view of the bay, nice furnishings, very clean, close to everything.

Joy New Zealand

It was a very clean, modernly updated, well located, fully functional apartment. Bed very comfortable. Great breezes to cool down in the late afternoon. BIG screen with Sky sport :) Private, relaxing, romantic. Want to go back soon. Thanks again Pete and Margaret!!!

Pete & Margaret Simpson

A wonderful modern apartment in Akaroa on the Banks Peninsula, located on the second level of a small 2-story apartment block. The apartment is conveniently located on the main street in the village and features some of the best views in Akaroa. Our holiday apartment is a fantastic getaway for a couple or a family. Light and spacious, just the recipe for a relaxing holiday in Akaroa. A separate kitchenette and large living area allows enough room to spread out. The balcony has tables and seating from which you can enjoy the view and the atmosphere of this beautiful seaside town. Literally in the heart of Akaroa, restaurants, shops, the main wharf and tour operators are just a minute’s walk away. The school, with children's play area, and a cinema, is within easy walking distance as well. Free off-street parking is provided for one car.

Pete & Margaret simply love Akaroa, and want to share this special place with their guests. Margaret's grandfather lived in Akaroa so the village has a special family place in our history, one we continue to share with our children. We live not far away in Diamond Harbour - the other major harbour on Banks Peninsula.

Situated in central Akaroa, this apartment is close to Akaroa Lighthouse, Akaroa Museum, and Artisans Gallery. The main wharf is directly across the road, and offers shopping and dolphin tours. Area attractions also include Fishermans Bay Garden. Tourist activities include both dolphin watching and swimming with dolphins, guided kayaking, fishing, hiking, walks and a relaxed village around which you can just stroll and enjoy the views, the people, and the wonderful atmosphere. There’s a good playground if travelling with children close to the very family-friendly beach. A pleasant drive by car to the outer bays of the Peninsula will find some of the best unspoiled beaches in Canterbury. Akaroa boasts a good supermarket, many cafes, and wonderful restaurants. Akaroa harbour offers great walks and hikes, along with boutique shopping, galleries, wineries and the famous Barry Bay cheese factory. Akaroa is 1.5 hours from Christchurch city, and has a regular mini-bus service operating between Christchurch City and the airport. We pride ourselves on offering a unique and memorable accommodation experience - one that will ensure you want to return to visit Akaroa and us again.
