We really enjoyed our stay. Confusion initially as we did not receive info about check-in. It wasn’t until later that I saw it in my Spam mailbox! However Peter was easily contactable and very pleasant to talk to. The unit was well furnished and very comfortable. Would thoroughly recommend.

Unit was excellent location, clean & tidy. When arriving in Akaroa we had no idea where to find the apartment - after many phone calls, we found out the unit was in Akaroa Village Inn Complex. If we had of known this, we would have saved alot of time & frustration.

Lovely view from balconies, bedroom and living area. Kitchen and bathroom adequate. The only real letdown was that the balcony railings and table were filthy. As they were cleaned that day and the forecast was good why not clean them? Otherwise a great spot!
