Top Lyttelton Harbour Hotel Reviews

Ocean View tiny house

10/10 Excellent

"nice with the sun coming in skylight window in the morning, and good little walk around the cliff"

Classic Kiwi Bach + Sleepout - 100m to Purau beach

10/10 Excellent

"Such a lovely spot. So handy to Diamond Harbour and the ferry, yet tucked away out of the hustle and bustle. We found it so quiet and peaceful at night. The Bach has everything we needed to make ourselves at home. There is one double bed in the bach, and one double bed and two singles in the sleepout. The beds were comfy too. It was cool to have a paddle board available to use too. Nice and cute garden as well, and it was really nice to sit on the porch and listen to the birds in the morning. Thanks for a nice get-away."

Beach House on Beachville

10/10 Excellent

"Tracy’s space is just as warm as her hospitality! We loved every detail she put into the space & wished we had more days here. Check in was smooth, Tracy was super communicative & helpful & truly one of the most hospitable hosts we’ve met. She generously prepared welcome snacks (that were to die for) & ensured we were right at home. Well equipped in everything you’d need for a comfy, cosy stay. Beautiful home in a beautiful location, with a space that reflected her beautiful heart. Thanks Tracy!"

Panoramic City and Sea Views. Total Privacy! 5 mins to Sumner beach & village.

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second stay here and once again I could not be happier with every aspect of the experience - from the thoughtful amenities to the stylish decor to the clear and incredibly friendly communication with Gabby and Ian. And the view! I could not recommend this fabulous spot on Hurst Seager more highly."

Sumner Bay Motel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. The host is awesome. Check in included a tour of the room, ammenities & an offer of help with our luggage. We went with the split level appartment which was great but you need to carry your bags up stairs. Location is close to the beach, shops & restaurants."
