Kerry
This property was a perfect getaway. The views from within and on the balcony were just beautiful. We had glorious weather so that made it even better. The area was walkable to a number of local walks and it was 1km from the village. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and if I returned I would try and stay here again. Thank you for such a lovely break

Great Stay
Short walk out of town, Great views
Deborah
One of my favourite places that I’ve stayed - floor to ceiling windows overlooking the lake with huge sliding doors . Beautiful tree outside that makes you feel like you’re almost in a tree house with all mod cons . Comfortable and spacious with everything you need . Had beautiful views of the night sky on our first night . Just beautiful

An OK Apartment
The stay is ok.
Verified traveler
A residential home that has been split into two apartments to stay in; we stayed on the bottom level. The owner was really helpful about getting us set up and helping us to check in early, I loved the surrounding area. Lots of nice homely touches like multiple heaters around the home, electric blankets on the bed.

We stayed in the seaview room. Nice place opposite the water. The apartment is spacious for 2. The queen bed was comfortable but would have preferred a king. All amenities, utensils, cutlery, crockery for cooking were included. There were also some board games, dvds and hifi which made good use when it was raining. There was no cable tv only regular tv channels. Information about the place and things to do was also in the compendium. Mary the host was friendly and made us feel welcome. I would definitely stay a few nights again.

Nice relaxing spot but not really a beach in front

A Mid Winter get away
The place smelt like asian cooking.
Fridge had water inside (as it had been turn off before our stay)
The dishes and glasses ware were not properly clean and we had to wash everything before we used it.

The place to stay in Akaroa
This is a great location away from the noise of the village but easy walking distance and so close to the sea. Great bedding and excellent facilities

Disappointing
We were looking forward to our stay but found ourselves a little disappointed. We could forgive the godawful colour scheme and dated decor, but we found the cane lounge chairs to be incredibly uncomfortable and ended up sitting on the floor! There were no curtains or blinds in the lounge/dining, so no privacy. There was no soap for the shower, or shampoo, nowhere to hang your handtowel, the milk provided was out of date and off, and we had to ration the toilet paper because there were no spare rolls. There were many signs around the house warning us \"not to touch this and that\" which didnt make us feel welcome.

A lovely quiet stay with a great view
2 relaxing nights in the property. Weather was average outside but the property was cosy and warm and could still look at a beautiful view out of the large windows. Bed was slightly hard but that's probably comparing to our own. Still a pleasant sleep. The kitchen is well stocked with items - very impressed. Bathroom was tidy and clean and had a great shower. only complaint would be a slightly off smell when we first arrived, maybe a bit of spilt milk or something in kitchen? All good after opening the windows. A great stay and have recommended to family and friends.

Amazing!
Akaroa on the Beach is an amazing place to stay. The view is great and the sound of birds singing incredible. A must place to stay when in Akaroa!
Verified traveler
Beautiful location and view. Nice layout in Beachside unit. Not immaculate- crumbs on dining table, pans greasy. Laundry \"out of order\" $16 per load to drop it off at in town laundry. Welcome drink advertised, not provided. Little things- no sponge to wash dishes, no daily change of towels, no liners in trash- had to use grocery bags and outside bin completely full. But for these small details, it would have been the perfection stated in other reviews.
Judy
A Place away from it All!
Two Night Stay at Akaroa before going back to Oz. This was a three storey house, we were on the bottom floor. Views of the Harbour. 10 min walk to town. The bed was too small for both of us, I slept on the Sofa Bed in the lounge. A lovely spot to stay in. French influence. Plenty of Cafe's, Very busy when the Cruise Ships are in the Harbour, otherwise very quiet. Beautiful scenery. Lots of History here.

Very well appointed apartment.
Once we got in, and I believe it was Wotif's fault we had a problem there, all was superb. The place had all the mod ons we needed. They all functioned well and the place was clean.
After we left we realised we had left our anoraks in the cupboard. At the time we were driving north from Christchurch. Contact with the owner resulted in her kindly sending them on ( we paid for the postage of course) and the day was saved.
All in all a very satisfactory stay.
Note it is an apartment. The question above concerning staff has only been filled in as this review would be rejected if I did not put something!!! The only'staff' was the cleaner who did her job as required. No comment.

Nice place to stay
Unfortunately this place didn't have an office and we never received an email explaining how to enter our room.
There was no milk and no soap.
This was a nice quiet place to stay but overall we were a little disappointed.

Amazing location
We were on the ground floor and the guests up stairs did not worry us. We sat our fro t overlooking the water enjoying the ambience. The apartment was very relaxating after our flight . Easy drive from Christchurch. We couldn't get the TV to work but didn't worry calling the help line as we did not need it. Such a pity the lovely old Radiogram doesn't work. We would have loved to play one of the old LP's Thanks for having us. We intend returning. Rob & Rob

Overall, very happy
Very quiet and comfortable.Would go back again. The only 'hick-up' was on arrival we were supposed to have a code to open the lock box for the apartment key, but our printed booking sheet from Hotels.com did not supply a code.
