This was the perfect place for my last stop before heading to Christchurch. A cozy little cottage with beautiful views and surroundings, on a remote sheep farm. It had everything I needed. The hosts were very welcoming. Really enjoyed the sunset in the evening and listening to all the birds for one last time.

Excellent attention to detail. You could tell real thought was put into every detail. It was way cooler then we were expecting. Even though we only live half an hour away, we will be back for a quick escape for the daily grind. Lovely quiet location.

A Tiny Home with an Unbeatable View – Pure Serenity! Staying in this tiny home was an unforgettable experience, and the highlight was undoubtedly the view. Nestled in the perfect spot, this little gem offers panoramic vistas that completely transform your stay. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on the deck or relaxing in the cozy living area, you’re constantly treated to breathtaking scenery that never gets old. The tiny home itself is a masterpiece of design – compact, yet incredibly functional. Every corner is thoughtfully arranged, and the attention to detail is evident. The open-plan living area feels spacious thanks to the large windows that let in not only natural light but also offer a front-row seat to the gorgeous landscape outside. Whether it's rolling hills, a sparkling lake, or towering mountains, the view never ceases to impress. The kitchen, though small, is fully equipped for preparing meals, and there's something magical about cooking with that incredible backdrop. The bathroom is sleek and modern, and the lofted bedroom feels like a peaceful sanctuary, especially when you wake up to the stunning views outside. But honestly, it’s the outdoors that truly set this place apart. There's something incredibly peaceful about waking up to the sounds of nature and being surrounded by such beauty. Whether you’re out on the deck at sunrise or unwinding under the stars, this tiny home is a perfect retreat for anyone seeking relaxation and inspiration. If you’re looking for a tiny home experience with a view that will leave you speechless, look no further. This place is a true haven, where simplicity meets stunning natural beauty in the most perfect way. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in nature without sacrificing comfort.

During our trip across New Zealand, we had the pleasure of staying at the Tresori Motor Lodge in Akaroa, and I must say, it was one of the highlights of our journey. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with warmth and helpfulness that made us feel right at home. The room we stayed in was not only spacious but also impeccably clean and comfortable. It provided a perfect retreat after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings of Akaroa. One of the standout features of our room was the luxurious spa bathtub, which was a delightful way to unwind and soak in the peaceful vibes of the area. Location-wise, Tresori Motor Lodge is ideally situated, making it easy to access various attractions around the town. The convenience of having parking on-site was an added bonus, as it took away any stress related to car security and parking space availability. Overall, Tresori Motor Lodge is a top-notch choice for anyone visiting Akaroa. Whether it's the attentive staff, the well-appointed rooms, or the prime location, this motel ensures a memorable and relaxing stay. It's definitely one of the best motels we visited during our trip across New Zealand. Highly recommended!

A perfect location within walking distance of the waterfront, restaurants and shops. Trevor and Erika were fantastic- friendly, helpful and welcoming. We had a beautiful little garden and stream in front of our room and heard lots of birds calling. We even saw eels in the stream!!

Dining options were very poor for a location that sells itself as French. Highlight was fish and chips and the local cinema. Nice cafes and great location. We were lucky to be staying at Beaufort House and breakfast saw us through the day.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was beautiful, and the view was absolutely stunning. My daughter especially loved feeding the sheep, which made the experience even more special. Everything was well-maintained, and we truly enjoyed our time. Highly recommend.

Great motel and location not to far from the Ferry at Diamond Harbour. Cafe and Brewery, supermarket and petrol near by. Stunning scenery. Great for quieter travellers wanting a peaceful location and a love of nature. Lovely walks and little bays and beaches to visit. About 7 minutes by Ferry you can visit Lyttleton and they have a market there on a Saturday morning. The motel was very new, clean and beautifully presented with lovely views. The owners were lovely and very friendly. It was a dog friendly motel so I took my small dog who is part of the family. This motel was spotlessly clean and a pleasure to stay at. I will stay again in the future. We ate at the cafe which is near by and also at the Brewery about a 4 minute drive to get to or a 20 minute walk away.

We loved the French village vibe.

We loved the French village vibe. The shops and cafes are lovely. At The Brasserie, I mentioned it was my husband’s 70th birthday and the owner brought out a caramel slice with a candle! Loved walking along the waterfront and enjoyed a short bush walk with views, near the lighthouse. The Tini House is in a superb setting right by the water and also great gin cocktails and pizza. We had a wonderful birthday dinner at Ma Maison with a lovely waitress. Had a superb wine tasting at Caldera Estate with oysters and a freshly baked seed loaf with olive oil and herb butter. Lovely staff, especially our French waitress, Solene. The bakery in the village bakes delicious bread daily, and the butchery has superb meat products and an excellent variety of deli items. Had a great pizza lunch at French Farm Estate and enjoyed chatting with the friendly family who own it.

A unique and beautiful little town.

A unique and beautiful little town. We spent 3 days there and felt that was the right amount of time. The food was great - there's a beautiful French bakery in town and the salmon sold at the butchery was amazing! I also recommend The cake shop - it's a unique little place that serves beautiful cakes and tea in old school teapots and teacups. Alpacas were great too, my daughter loved feeding them. Akaroa Dolphin tours run a great tour as well and there's a dog on the boat! The local cinema is also a cute and unique experience - it was very nice. Overall great little town and very friendly locals, recommend for a long weekend away :-)

We visited in spring and everything was green, lush and stunning. So many great walking tracks and day trips around the Akaroa harbour. Barry's Bay Cheese Factory is a must to pick up everything you need for snacking platters = no cooking required here!!!
