    My Partner and I have visited Akaroa three times, the views are absolutely beautiful, the French heritage is evident, gardens are well maintained around the village. There are lots of little shops, cafes and restaurants to suit all.

    Lots to do here. Great shops and cafes/restaurants.

    Lots to do here. Great shops and cafes/restaurants. You must sail on the Fox II to see the dolphins, penguins and seals and learn about the local history. Outstanding! Very walkable town and also some good hiking.

    Akaroa is a must-visit township, it has some amazing cafes/restaurants, and the food is great and varied. Some of them have both inside and outside seating so it is lovely to take advantage of that on a nice day. There are also some great wee shops to visit where you can find a treasure of two. We found a gin-tasting cafe that is a must-visit when you are there and also an Indian Restaurant whose food was amazing. All the shops and cafes are within walking distance if your accommodation is in town. There are some great walks to go on and we also went swimming with the dolphins which is an experience I highly recommend when you are in Akaroa.

    We loved the quaint historic town.

    We loved the quaint historic town. We loved its French flavour. The cafe’s and restaurants outstanding especially Ma Maison where we had the best meal ever. The food, the flavours and the welcoming staff, outstanding! We had breakfast at The Common, again fabulous. We loved walking round the bay to the quay. Everyone was so friendly and happy to stop and talk. At the end of the quay was the prize, the beautiful pearl shop, an absolute must to visit. We can’t wait to return. Already planning a longer trip.

    I have been a regular visitor as my French ancestors founded it. The only thing that stops me coming more often is that dangerous-feeling hill up and down. Nice, quiet (mostly) place that focuses on food, events and nature. Need to put in a lot more effort to add more genuine French flavour to shops and activities. A simple Bonjour is not too difficult. Akaroa's true French nature is being dumbed down by new arrivals who are only interested in commerical gain.

    We Were staying for the weekend in Akaroa and left it a bit late to book our Hotel and found only this Hotel had a room left . The Price of the room was very Affordable , Its an older Hotel Built they say in 1882 so we had to carry our bags up the stairs to the room . Well it did the Job for us and found we can walk to the other bars and restaurants very easy . I do like old Pubs and have used a lot in Ireland and the UK so one has to put up with a few minor thing .

    We arrived on Labour Day public holiday and found the town humming with tourists. It had been 22 years since I was in Akaroa and once late afternoon arrived, then the tourists returned to Christchurch. This property has its own waterfront area so it was great to see all the different varieties of birds on the rocks and in the water.

    This is a delightful place. The owners are friendly & helpful. They work hard to keep up a beautiful old house along with gorgeous flower gardens. Everything was neat, clean and tidy. They had lots of suggestions of places to visit. The location is convenient to Akaroa, about 12 km away,’and very close to the water.

    Room 1 had a beautiful view of the Akaroa lake from its balcony. We enjoyed the sunset views from the room's balcony. Lyndal was very pleasant and patient with her explanation at the reception! The room is located near all the amenities in the town centre so it was very convenient to move around on foot.

    The property consists of 2 apartments. We had the Penthouse on top of the building. It had amazing views over Akaroa Harbour. The property is an easy 20min walk along the waterfront to the centre of Akaroa where there are many dining venues. "The Common" was frequented by us a lot during our stay!

    Having been there twice before and having walked all round Akaroa looking at other hotels etc. we decided that this was probably the best place to stay. One main advantage was that you could swim from the premises and hire boats as well.
