These units are very nice and the beds were great. We had the Studio which is essentially a hotel room. The studios attached to the larger apartment so you can rent one, the other or both is you have others with you. Staff were very friendly and accomodating. These units are located in the beautiful Ocean Ridge community, 5 minutes from Kiakoura!

Great spot just on the other side of Kaikoura about 3km’s pout of the city center. Kaikoura is a great little beach town with several seal colonies and easily seen earls sun bathing on the rocky shores.
