Independent in Akatore

"John is an amazing host, feeding the Alpacas is the best bonus you could get. Breakfast was perfect. Just a great place to stay."

"Perfect. Peaceful. Friendly owner. Great spot. Thankyou."

"The room was clean and parking was very good. There are plenty of options for takeaways nearby. We were disappointed with check in though. We were at a family funeral and were aware check-in was early. We tried to call reception about 7 minutes past 6 to apologise for being late and to ask if they would leave a key hidden somewhere. Leaving our family earlier than we did would have been rude. We had to rush to get to the motel. The reception area was locked and the outdoor lighting was very poor. No one answered the bell outside reception. We finally found a note with our names and about 4 parties who were in the same boat. In fairness we were late but we had prepaid. Hoteliers do need to eat and have down time but 6pm is hardly midnight and keeping people up until midnight. "

"Stayed in the two bedroom and it was a good set up, could do with a bigger heater or heat pump"

"The tiny houses we stayed in was clean and tidy, *The host was friendly and helpful *The location Brighton Beach *It was comfortable off the street tiny house making it dark when the lights go out, with no street light pollution "

"Fantastic spot with an incredible view of the beach waves, in particular the sunrise.Very warm, with lights and heating left on for us kindly by host as we arrived later in the evening.Great location close to Dunedin, cosy, and even treats and drinks supplied!"

"We had a wonderful, cosy and memorable stay! Everything provided for quality family time and walks to the beach close-by. The house sings a tune of good times including a piano in the heart of the home, soft couches for reading and a sunny dining table for long, slow meals. Highly recommended! "

"Very nice cottage with enough space for a small family. "
