About this property

Renard Retreat, your peaceful escape in beautiful Akaroa

  • Our bach is perched on the hillside in a peaceful spot surrounded by native bush and quality homes. You can look forward to relaxing on the expansive deck while listening to the bellbirds and admiring the views over the bay and the surrounding hills.The property is only a short walk down the hill to the best local restaurants and shops that Akaroa has to offer. There are plenty of walking tracks nearby if you prefer a more intrepid stroll down to the village.
