Summary: The wee cottage is a real retro charmer, with the classic kiwi bach vibes. But comfy and easy to use. The location was wonderful, with the bay being right across the road. Tracey was great with communication and very prompt with replies to our queries. The Akaroa village had a lot to explore. We would definitely love to return

Summary: We spent a few days in this retro beach house enjoying the popular village of Akoroa. It was a great location to walk to the village, but be staying in a very quiet, serene home with a terrific garden and expansive view. My only disappointment was having to pay for “renting” linens and towels, a first in five trips to New Zealand.
