Akaroa Waterfront Apartment is fabulous!
Waking up to views of the harbour and mountains every morning was amazing. The location is perfect for short walks to the sights around Akaroa. Shops and restaurants close and the cruise tour dock only a few minutes away. Quiet evenings spent on the little balcony. Lots of attention to detail to make for a cozy "home away from home"! Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Can't say enough about how wonderful this place is!
The location was great. We really loved the little Thai restaurant next door and the view from the place was beautiful. The apartment is well layed out and decorated so nicely. I would say the pictures don't do it justice. We were on a three-week trip so we really appreciated the washer and dryer. We also spent a lot of time out on the balcony looking out over the water. The whole family put this place at the top of our list of all the accomodations we stayed in during our three weeks in New Zealand. And there were many. Thank you for everything!
