9 Totara Drive, Harbour View 3-Bedroom Retreat — Duvauchelle

A modern, single-level three-bedroom home with two bathrooms, a gas BBQ and harbour and hill views, on a quiet street. Well-equipped and relaxed — 10 minutes from Akaroa. Best suited to adults and over-12s.

A modern, comfortable single-level home on a quiet treet, with peaceful harbour and hill views. Two Queen bedrooms plus a King-single room, and two bathrooms with heated towel rails, make it a relaxed base for a family or a group of friends — and with no stairs, it's easy for everyone.

It's well set up: a contemporary kitchen with a Nespresso machine and milk frother, a large TV with Netflix, a private backyard and a gas BBQ on the deck for long summer evenings. Electric blankets on 

every bed keep winter cosy.

You'll have the whole property to yourselves, with off-street parking, just a 10-minute drive from Akaroa's beaches, shops, cafés and restaurants.

Please note: this property is not suitable for children under 12, as the (compliant) deck does not have safety rails. The owners also occasionally bring their cats when they stay, which may matter for  guests with allergies.

House was spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and we appreciated how well stocked the kitchen was. We had a relaxing and hassle-free few days away and would happily recommend the house to people.

From $200/night
