Sumner Bay Motel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and compact place to stay. Lovely and warm with the heater. Would stay again."

Beautiful 80 m sq, 2-bedroom apartment, with stunning views over the Pacific.

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely Stunning view, very welcoming hosts. The heating was put on for us and the breakfast supplies were delicious. We enjoyed the spa in the evening and found it very difficult to leave! Thank you so much"

Cave Rock Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great location and fairly priced. The hosts go out of their way to provide extras like each towels. Public transportation to downtown Christchurch and airport is about 1 block away and runs every 15 minutes until late. There are lots of restaurants nearby along with grocery, pharmacy, and coffee shops. "

The Ultimate Cecil Wood Stay - Hot Tub, BBQ & Views

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay! Very spacious rooms, great views from the balcony and bedroom windows. Easy check in. This place is located at the top of a large, steep mountain so a car to get to and from places is recommended unless you are feeling fit! Definitely recommend to stay here. "

Elevated Ocean View Oasis - 3-BR, 2-Bath, Parking

8/10 Good

"There were two couples traveling. The home’s location was ideal, in a quiet neighborhood, up a hill with a beautiful ocean view. The hill does cause the driveway to be quite steep. There are also stairs immediately as you enter to ascend to get to the living part of the residence. Only mentioning that if you have issues walking or carrying luggage.The home was equipped with everything we needed, minus a BBQ, which would have been perfect out on the very nice deck overlooking the ocean. The home was clean. The decor and furniture were in good order but very dated (70’s & 80’s). We really liked the location as it was easy to get into downtown Christchurch and the surrounding areas. We would go back if in the area again and recommend the home."
