The staff were very helpful and warm. The room was well designed w a partial view of the sea and great view of the snow capped mountains. It felt like a home away from home. It was a bit of a walk but very accessible to the Kaikuora town with lots of food and activity options. The breakfast buffet was very well curated and the restaurant was well situated to catch the sun rise. Well worth the money!
