Timaru Central, 0.6 km from South Canterbury Museum
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (6 reviews)
"We stayed at Seabreeze (family of 4) with our 2 young children. Location was AMAZING so close to the playground, beach, aviary, and an easy walk down the main street. The view was stunning from our room, and even though it was right by the road we didn't find it to busy or noisy. Everything felt new, clean and tidy. It was a beautiful space to stay, and would definitely stay again."
