Adults should closely supervise young children to ensure that they do not climb the horizontal wooden slats in the deck barrier.As the deck barrier is below 1 metre high and there is a retaining wall without a barrier, all guests should take care in these areas due to the risk of falls.Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - TV ### Outdoor areas - Deck - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,130 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111690000/111689500/111689482/916b7432.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bellbird Bach - Akaroa Akaroa - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Parking available 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=111689482&PinnedHotelID=111689482&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45040000/45034800/45034780/e11ac74e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Anchor in Akaroa - Akaroa Holiday Home Akaroa - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 8.0 Very good 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=45034780&PinnedHotelID=45034780&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 - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=45341516&PinnedHotelID=45341516&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/54000000/53830000/53826000/53825925/6fbeada0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fantail Cottage with Sea Views - Akaroa Home Akaroa - Kitchen - Outdoor space - Parking available - Fireplace 7.0 Good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=53825925&PinnedHotelID=53825925&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/40000000/39050000/39041900/39041821/803e6d30.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Grandstand - French Farm Holiday Home Akaroa - Kitchen - Parking included - Outdoor space - Parking available 9.4 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=39041821&PinnedHotelID=39041821&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33550000/33546100/33546057/cb776d89.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Akaroa Holiday Home.
