About this property

‘White Caps’ - Entire Guest Studio - Loft bed with Ocean & Mountain views

Experience the Sunrise spectacular at 'White Caps Kaikoura'.
Quiet, relaxing & peaceful - sunrise view from your bed - starry skies - close-up mountains - spacious, light & airy - beautiful wood throughout - creative touches - secure parking - toast and cereal is included - and a wee bit of whale whimsy throughout. Truly, a home away from home.

Overview: Make yourself at home in this spacious loft-bedroom studio with large living area and acres of glass, opening onto our 2-hectare lifestyle property. You will marvel at the serenity of being just 10 minutes from Kaikoura town. No near neighbours, no street noise. Just an amazing view of the mountains, a night sky full of stars, a couple of cows, a few flighty sheep, and a fuzzy Golden Doodle.

Living room: The space is large and lofty, with a two-story high cedar wood ceiling, beachy white floorboards and coastal decor. There is a queen bed upstairs on a mezzanine floor and a sofa bed downstairs. Please note that the bathroom is down the stairs from the bedroom.

Dining: This guest studio is like a peaceful rural retreat away from it all. That includes cooking! There is no kitchenette, sink or microwave. What you do have is a full-size dining table and a dresser filled with plenty of tableware for your drinks, nibbles and takeaway. There is a sweet retro mini fridge (no freezer), a kettle, toaster and Nespresso machine.

Sunrise: The Loft bedroom faces due east. Depending on the time of year, the sun will either rise out of the sea right in front of your eyes while you lay in bed, or, in winter, will peek out over the adjacent hills. It's very inspiring, and cloud patterns can create some sublime colours in the Kaikoura region, but it is early in the summertime! In case you don't find it romantic ;-) … we can provide you with a brand new complimentary eye mask. Just mention it.

TV: 32 " flatscreen smart TV with satellite freeview channels and Netflix and Disney+

Breakfast: In the morning, make yourself breakfast at your leisure. We provide milk, bread for toast, margarine, spreads, cereals, and freshly boiled eggs from our neighbour’s happy hen house. These things are already in the room/fridge.

Parking: Secure parking is right in front of the house and your loft studio. If you have a precious vehicle or loads of personal stuff in a van, this is the place for you. We even have enough space for boats on trailers.

We hope you choose White Caps for your next holiday in Kaikoura.
