Breathtaking sea view house

"We had our daughter's wedding in Oamaru. This house was perfect for us to stay in along with our other daughter, son-in-law, 3 grandsons and for one night our two grand- daughters as well. Only issue was some of the power points weren't working but I believe these have since been fixed. Beds were super comfy."

Forest Hill Farm Summ
6.0 out of 10, (1)
"The tiny home was perfectly fine, amenities were good, and the bunny watching from the window was very cute. However the email that arrived just prior to check-in that advised the use of earplugs to block the sound of traffic and trains…well it was good advice, but arrived a little too late. The perpetual falling of objects from the trees overhead onto the metal roof of the house all together with the train rumbling through and trucks thundering by, lead to a less than decent sleep.

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (30)
"We had a great stay at the Kakanui Cube. The house is well-designed, modern, clean, with all the amenities you need (laundry, sharp knives, comfortable bed, plenty of space). We slept so well with the sea air nearby, and woke up early each morning to catch the magnificent sunrises. Equally enjoyable are the sunsets — the way Kakanui is situated you can enjoy both over the ocean. The house is in a rural area so WiFi bandwidth can be an issue — it may not be practical to expect to be on zoom calls...

Oamaru Accommodation - Cozy On Till
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (12)
"Comfortable and spacious, close to the town centre and facilities such as Countdown and restaurants. Was sent the address after we had started our trip and had to chase the manager for it. Apparently there was a glitch in the system. Perhaps because the bathroom is new, (with a great tub!), there weren't any towel rails or a shower basket/shelves (found a broken one under the sink)."

Best Accommodation in Town!!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (3)
"We enjoyed our stay very much. The house has everything needed and is very nicely decorated and well-kept, clean and comfortable. The road noise from early morning traffic may not be to the liking of some, but reminds us of wake up time. The host was very helpful to make sure we knew how to use the very modern induction hob and oven. The people we met were a delight, very friendly and helpful. It was an ideal spot to drive around the vicinity and tour."

"Tidy, modern amenities and comfortable house with a gorgeous view. Our family enjoyed our stay - especially the comfortable beds. It was a good base for us to visit family in the area. We were able to park in the car port and navigate the steep driveway in a large family car. Had the feeling of a nice hotel with lots more space."
