Extra services are available for purchase through your personal guest boarding pass once your booking is confirmed. For example: early check-ins, high chairs and more. The Akaroa Oceanview Home is a beautiful three-bedroom property, situated up the hill from the village offering the most breathtaking views of Akaroa. This two-story home features two spacious queen bedrooms, one twin bun bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a private TV room and a sunlit lounge opening up to a 180-degree wrap-around balcony. With doors scattered around the front of the house for ultimate indoor-outdoor flow. Guests have easy access to private bush walks down to the village centre where you can visit playgrounds, beachfront restaurants, and cafes. Please be aware that accessing the house requires driving down a very steep driveway. As well as walking up this driveway to access the front door. Access to the lower level is also something to note as this is a ladder stair which may not be accessible for all. The apartment\`s prime location ensures that all the necessary amenities for a relaxing weekend are within walking distance (if you don\`t mind walking up/down hills). The waterfront area offers a delightful array of shops where visitors can discover unique trinkets and treasures. Make sure to visit the near by Giant\`s House, a must-visit local attraction. Our cleaning fees reflect the level of care and detail our housekeeping team provide in our homes. While you may be staying in a regular family home, our intention is to provide hotel-quality comfort for your stay, regardless of the type of property. This requires extensive cleaning after each check-out to ensure every guest is able to experience our properties at their best. Our cleans also include hotel-quality linen on all our beds, bathroom toiletries such as shampoo and conditioner, as well as tea, coffee & hot chocolate for your first couple of days. For stays exceeding 14 days, a mid-stay clean is required to keep the property at the highest standards. If you would also like a linen change please let us know so we can book this in for the same time. Mid-stay cleans or linen changes for stays less than 14 days are optional. This service can be booked through your personal Guest Boarding Pass. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - On the waterfront ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/58000000/57430000/57427700/57427601/2810a278.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hidden Gem at the backyard of Christchurch Diamond Harbour - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 15 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-14&endDate=2026-01-15&selected=57427601&PinnedHotelID=57427601&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109420000/109415800/109415781/b2c66da6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Takamatua Holiday Home Christchurch - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 10 Exceptional 1 review £198 includes taxes & fees 31 Jan - 1 Feb 2026 [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=109415781&PinnedHotelID=109415781&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45350000/45341600/45341516/d3207cde.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Treetop Retreat - Takamatua Holiday Home Takamatua - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-14&endDate=2026-01-15&selected=45341516&PinnedHotelID=45341516&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45910000/45909700/45909645/87a0d479.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Kingfisher's Perch - Takamatua Holiday Home Akaroa - Kitchen - Washing machine - Air-conditioning - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-14&endDate=2026-01-15&selected=45909645&PinnedHotelID=45909645&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/98000000/97590000/97582900/97582823/60830551.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Okains Bay award winning Luxury Escape - Relax and Rejuvenate!

Loved the property - great location, cleanliness of the highest standard, log burner was fantastic in the bad weather, but plenty of other heating options available if fire starting skills aren't in your repertoire. Very cosy with great amenities/facilities. Welcoming hosts and great communication throughout. ##### Kerry S. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison M. 4 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous! We had a fabulous stay in Akaroa. The house is a short walk into town which meant it was very quiet with fantastic views of the bay but still handy for going into town for all the shops & restaurants. The house was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. A great stay. ##### Alison M. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan R. 2 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely relaxing getaway Great spot in Akaroa just past the lighthouse. The house was very well set up with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. When we arrived the fire was already going and there was milk and chocolate in the fridge for us. The location was quiet and private. The driveway was not the easiest to navigate and found parking at the cemetery and then a short walk was easiest for us.Giving two thumbs up for this property and would recommend. Many thanks ##### Susan R. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Brad M. 29 Jan 2025 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Insect issue Maggots were present in downstairs bedroom and bathroom. Cleaner informed us they were aware of this issue before we arrived. Cleaner was great. But concering they rented this property knowing. Still trying to resolve concerns. ##### Brad M.
