Awesome place! Great amenities! Wonderful decor. Convenient to town. Most awesome views on the planet! Perfect spot for a one night or 1 month stay!!
Robert
This place is amazing! What’s not to love about sleeping facing the ocean, seeing a sky full of stars and soaking in a tub, open to the outdoors, listening to birdsong? Every comfort and detail is totally thought out.
Samantha
Amazing place to stay. Everything so well thought out. The views were incredible.
Verified traveler
Absolutely beautiful!
The home we stayed in was absolutely beautiful inside and out. It felt very private, yet was close to town for food. The owners of the property paid close attention to detail in all of the amenities the home offered. We wish we could have stayed longer!!
Tejas
Absolutely beautiful cottage just outside Kaikoura. Amazing views!
Sumeera
What a gem! Exquisite design, thought and care has been put into our unit - what a fabulous stay!
Ange
A gorgeous spot the attention to detail is amazing, beautifully furnished, amazing views. We have stayed there 3 times and loved it.
Urs
We loved the house… the spacious rooms, the gorgeous garden, the interior. The view from the bed and the bath tub is amazing. We only spent a short time there, but it is a perfect place to relax.
James
Very nice stay

Stunning in Kaikoura
Amazing place with gorgeous mountain and water views. Very spacious and comfortable. Loved the breakfast provisions - perfect place. Hope to make it a yearly stay😁
Jackie S.
Amazing views, great location and hosts
Beautifully situated cottage with amazing views all around, very clean with great amenities, lovely breakfast basket and friendly hosts. I would give it 10 out of 5 stars if I could!
Neale
Very comfortable, private, high quality accommodation set up and run with great consideration and located in a beautiful spot conveniently near Kaikoura township. Do be aware that trains will occasionally pass by during the night. Not a big issue but light sleepers should consider bringing earplugs - don't let that put you off though - highly recommended.
Bruce
Best yet
What an amazing place, perfectly set up for a totally relaxing stay. The views are incredible and completely peacefully. Highly highly recommend
Verified traveler
Perfect location and awesome accommodation of the highest standard. Provided everything we needed and so much thought to detail has gone into this property - we had a perfect stay and can not wait to return.
Verified traveler
The location and quality of this property were second to none with views out to sea at front and mountains out back. There is a nice decked area both front and back and having an electric blind in the bedroom was a fantastic idea. You could just lay in bed, open the blind and watch the sunrise over the sea. Perfect, the bath is also fantastic having the full opening door to the deck by the bath. This is a wonderful place to stay and a short walk to the beach, was great to sit out front and see the dolphins jumping!
David
Awesome views, peace and quiet. The perfect spot to chill out
Charanjit
Spectacular in every way
Amazing place beautifully decorated with fantastic views front and back. Probably one of the most special places we have ever stayed.
Delwyn
Wonderful retreat that over delivered ♥️
The retreat was everything it promised and more. It was modern, private with the most amazing views. Would recommend to everyone.
Michael
Very relaxing . Very comfortable with stunning views.
Verified traveler
Perfect location to unwind. Quiet, private, and exceptionally clean. Beautiful views. Layout of lodging was wonderfully designed and decorated. Would definitely recommend. One of the most comfortable places I have ever stayed.
Cynthia
Highlight of our trip ! Double view, oceanview from the bedroom and mountain views from the rest of the unit. Very comfortable and luxurious. Breakfast provisions every day, delicious fruit salad, yogurt, muesli, eggs and croissants ! Beautifuly designed and very peaceful. We spent 4 nights and wished we stayed longer.
Verified traveler
The view was stunning! The rooms were brand new. The breakfast was delicious. Of the roughly 30 countries I’ve visited, the 28 hours spent in Kaikoura were some of the best.
ryan
What a beautiful property! Even though we only spent a night it couldn’t have been a more beautiful place. Coming from a large city it was so amazing getting to lay outside at night to see the stars Milky Way and all. Getting to look out at the ocean from the bed didn’t hurt either :)
Verified traveler
Glenburn Costal Retreat is on the top of my list of the best places we’ve stayed. The views, the attention to detail, the fixtures and fitting are perfect. My only recommendation (and really this is very minor) perhaps a blind over the window in the toilet area and in the lounge for comfort during the evenings. We loved staying here and we will certainly be back!
Verified traveler
Amazing property set between the ocean and the kaikoura range. The properties are designed so perfectly - you feel completely away from the rest of the world and you have everything you could need - all the finishes are top notch - can’t say enough good things about this place - hope to come back in the winter!
Lori
This was a beautiful location.
The property was well-appointed, and in perfect condition. Upon arrival, there was a beautiful basket of homemade croissants and breakfast items laid out for the morning. It felt like our own 5 star cottage!

If you are looking for the perfect getaway then Glenburn Coastal Retreat is for you. Honestly there is nothing that I would change about this facility. The bathroom has accordion doors to the beautiful deck which has fantastic view of the mountains in the back. The bedroom is situated so you wake up staring at the ocean in the morning. The place is so modern and clean and the perfect place to unwind. If you are debating staying in Kaikoura this is the place for you. Less than ten minutes to town center and all sorts of food options.
Verified traveler
The single greatest place we have ever stayed. Who ever designed the building did an amazing job. Words cannot describe the beauty.
Roger
Beautiful property, perfectly equipped
This is a beautifully designed and executed property - really makes you wonder if the hosts are architects (and also makes you want to hire them). Incredibly efficient and beautifully decorated. Great service and equipment - when you arrive, you have everything. Good location on a bluff overlooking the ocean - some binoculars are helpfully provided for whale watching/searching. We didn't find the local area as amazing as its reputation - or maybe we are just becoming jaded by the beauty of NZ - but the actual accommodation itself is faultless. You will love it.
Verified traveler
This is a new and immaculate accommodation. Although not with beach access, the views of the ocean are stunning. It's on a private hilltop very close to town. Everything inside is new, spotless, and felt quite comfortable and spacious. Kitchen wasn't fitted with a lot of cookware, but for 2 people, it's workable. We BBQ'd fresh local fish we got in town on the grill on the back patio. I don't think you could find anything nicer at this price point anywhere in town. We were very happy we stayed at Glenburn Retreat.
Verified traveler
Glenburn lodge provided my husband and me with wonderful memories that will last a lifetime! It was simply perfect in every way. The unit was spacious, impeccably clean, fully equipped and one could not ask for a more beautiful location. The ocean view was gorgeous and unobstructed. The view of the mountains from the back deck was equally lovely. We even were able to enjoy the fireplace. The location on the edge of town was away from the crowds and just what we wanted. I only wish we could have stayed longer. We look forward to our return.
Elaine
Loved this property, great view of the ocean on one side and mountains on the other. Modern and open space. I highly recommend it!
Paula
Elegant house and quiet atmosphere
This was the first night in NZ after a short night flight from Melbourne, so we wanted to be somewhere quiet and have a good rest. The house was beautifully decorated to every little detail, with a nice bath tub overlooking the mountains and sea views from the bed. We stopped in a Kaikoura grocery to buy food and wine for a bbq and enjoyed that in the early evening. Good beds and all the tv channels, incl Netflix.
Verified traveler
My husband & I have stayed in many countries & this is the best accommodation we have ever stayed at.
The bungalow is beautiful with stunning views of the mountains & ocean.
Only 5 mins drive to Kaikoura.
Delicious breakfast.
We will definitely stay there again.

Absolutely stunning property and views. The place feels brand new and high end. If you are staying in Kaikoura don’t miss this place. Continental breakfast was a thoughtful touch and very tasty.

Amazing views, amazing cabin, amazing breakfast and amazing service

Amazing Retreat
This is an incredible vacation home...a little hard to find at night but so worth it when you wake up in the morning to a delicious breakfast tray and views of the ocean and snow capped peaks. You can’t beat it. I’m going to tell all my friends about it! The place is upscale and immaculate...so tastefully done. Beautiful bathroom, comfortable bed and cozy living room with fireplace. Exceptional in every way!

Glenburn Coastal Retreat receives the highest possible rating from us. We travel a lot, and this accommodation is among the absolute best we have stayed at. The house is fantastic, and every detail is well thought out. The location by the sea is wonderful.

Le paysage incroyable, le chalet est très bien équipé en tout, on se sent à la maison. On ne plus en repartir!

Super schöner Bungalow für 2 Personen, sehr gut ausgestattet, tolle Lage, sehr gutes Frühstück, beste Ferienwohnung im gesamten Aufenthalt in Neuseeland.

I really really enjoyed the stay in Glenburn! I wanted to stay more longer. My husband really liked welcome bread and jams. Also we can see the milkyway I hope we can go Glenburn again.

Die Unterkunft ist phantastisch. Unsere (hohen) Erwartungen wurden noch übertroffen. Eine atemberaubende Aussicht auf die Berge auf der einen und aufs Meer auf der anderen Seite. Dabei völlige Ruhe und absolute Privatsphäre. Eine Ausstattung auf höchstem Niveau. Ein Bad, das eigentlich ein kleiner Spa-Bereich ist. Perfekt in jeder Hinsicht.

Beautifully located and well designed property with attention to details.

在新西兰之行最喜欢的地方，虽然离中心有点距离，但是开车没问题，非常干净，最主要风景真的是无与伦比。强烈推荐去凯库拉的都住这里。
