The beach is across the street and up a hill with a peer a short walk away. There is dining at the peer but we were there over Easter weekend and the restaurant closed early. In between the peer and the property is a hot tub/pool (pay-for-use), that I would have pre-booked had we known. There are also a few other eating options in the area as well as grocery, but again, due to Easter weekend, everything was closed. The property again was newer and well stocked with the exception of paper towels. I wished we had an extra day to explore the area and the city of Christchurch more, but in the end this property was very nice and provided ample (free) on-street parking. ##### Todd N. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Sally 16 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Our plans changed after realising this was not a neighbourhood we wanted to spend time in. The property itself looked brand new and well kept from the outside. Communication was excellent from the managers. ##### Sally Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary M. 23 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect beach retreat Fantastic stay in New Brighton. We loved being near He Puna Taimoana, going for walks on the beach and discovering the local wetlands. We enjoyed the local cafes and found a great Thai place.The apartment is very comfortable and well set up. Our older son loved having his own space, and everything works well and has been carefully thought out. As an added bonus, the little desk is PERFECT for writing - I'd think about coming back on my own for an extended writing retreat.The design of kitchen, bathroom and storage spaces works well, and having the apartment spread over three stories makes it feel special. Communication with the manager was excellent - warm, responsive and friendly. Nothing felt like a problem. Highly recommended - we'd love to stay here again. ##### Mary M. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Blue Mountain Resort Mosaic Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Resort-Mosaic-Suites.h35593864.Hotel-Information) > - [The Observatory Hotel Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-Observatorty-Hotel-Christchurch.h74786124.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Valley of the Kings](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valley-Of-The-Kings-Hotels.0-l6112092-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels near Attabad Lake](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Attabad-Lake-Hotels.0-l553248635944116444-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Costa Rei](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Costa-Rei-Hotels.d6048550.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Boutique Hotels in Clitheroe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clitheroe-Hotels-Boutique-Hotel.0-0-d177897-tBoutiqueHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Switzerland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Switzerland.d174.Hotel-Destinations) > - [Tewinbury Farm Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hertford-Hotels-Tewin-Bury-Farm-Hotel.h1880549.Hotel-Information) > - [thedoylecollection Hotels in Bristol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-The-Doyle-Collection.0-0-d688--bTheDoyleCollection.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Fable Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-Rendezvous-Hotel-Christchurch.h2440221.Hotel-Information) > - [LyLo Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-Jucy-Snooze-Christchurch.h15616452.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Kilkenny](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kilkenny-Hotels.d8298.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > - [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Isles of Scilly (ISC)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/isc/london-to-hughtown) > - [easyJet Ingenio (LPA) to Manchester (MAN) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/easyjet-from-gran-canaria-to-manchester/u2/lpa/man) ### Cars > - [Car hire in Reykjavik](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Keflavik-Intl.d4605259.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > - [Things to do in Bali](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Bali.d6035278.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > - [Knock Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knock.d6057815.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Queens Film Theatre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queens-Film-Theatre-Belfast-City-Centre.d6083499.Attraction) ### General > - [Visit Praia da Rocha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Praia-Da-Rocha.dx4693) > - [Visit New Broughton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-Broughton.dx3000478107) > - [Visit Ko Yao](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ko-Yao.dx553248634762028655) ---
