Best spot in Kaikoura
What a beautiful spot, we loved watching the whales and dolphins from the deck and even from the couch! House was fully equipped with everything we needed and more. We loved being on the quiet side of Kaikoura with the peninsula walk a few minutes away. Gail was very accomodating and only a phone call away. Fantastic 10/10

A million dollar view.
This property has everything. The views are fantastic. There are books to read, furniture is comfortable. Beds are comfortable. So clean. You can sit, rest and day dream while looking at those gorgeous views, go for a stroll down main street or do one or more of the activities available to you. The seafood in this area is excellent. I would come back here in a heartbeat. The owner of the house was a phone call away and was very helpful. I can't say enough about this place. Thank you Gail.

Perfect wee spot
This is a really lovely wee bach in prime positioning in South Bay. The hosts were very attentive leading up to and the day we arrived to ensure we had all the information we needed. Not often you find a place that you can bring the dog along too so were very grateful to have a well fenced section and have the freedom to leave the dog there if we needed to. We would very happily stay again, thanks :)

Wonderful views
Loved staying at K Orca cottage. Very relaxing with wonderful views. Watched dolphins playing from the lounge windows and did a lot of walking. Plenty to do in the area or just relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of South Bay.
