My stay at the Kaikōura Luxury Apartment was absolutely incredible! The apartment itself is beautifully designed with modern, high-end finishes and offers stunning views of the coastline. It’s spacious, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, making it the perfect home away from home. The kitchen is fully equipped, which made cooking a breeze, and the living area was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The location is unbeatable — just minutes from the town center, yet peaceful and private. The host was welcoming and attentive, providing excellent recommendations for local attractions and dining. If you’re looking for a luxurious and relaxing stay in Kaikōura, this apartment is the place to be!

There is the sea right outside the door and the geographical location is also very good. Each room has a bathroom. The setting is still very reasonable.

The whole family of 5 adults and 1 child stayed here. We were very satisfied with the whole stay. The 3 bathrooms were very convenient and the kitchen facilities were complete. The only thing we were not satisfied with was that we selected 5 adults and 1 child on the app, but the order sent to the merchant was for 5 adults without the child, which resulted in an extra 2 nights for the child, a total of $71

It's just a stone's throw away from the seaside. You can admire the snow-capped mountains and the sea from the balcony. It's located next to the only main road in the town. It's not far from the park and supermarket. The environment is very comfortable. The room is clean and tidy. You need to go to the reception desk of the hotel next door. After taking the key, the car was parked in the corresponding parking space downstairs, but cooking seafood was not allowed in the room for fear of too much smell!

It's very convenient to cross the road and be at the beach... The cooking equipment is also very complete... You have to go to the front desk of the hotel next door to check in and check out... Overall, it is still suitable for family living

Checkin encountered some problems at the beginning, but they were solved smoothly later. The hotel has a great location and a good view. The facilities are complete and kept clean. I will book here again next time I go.
