"Wonderful stay at Cubby House in Kaikoura! Leanne and Richard have created an oasis complete with an amazing view and friendly-furry-4-legged greeters. We traveled in NZ for over 2 weeks and Cubby House was the only place we stayed that had this level of charm, the most amazing coffee machine ever, and a fridge full of wonderful breakfast ingredients. If the opportunity arises, we will certainly be back."

"Great place. Amazing view. Very private. Close to beach and town. Beds could be a little better quality but we would stay again."

"Lovely place with easy access to the beach. Extremely quiet and dark, allowing for great stargazing. Plenty of room for our family to spread out. Friendly host who quickly explained everything and was available for questions via text. Would definitely return the next time we’re near Kaikoura. "

"Amazing home and wonderful stay. This was perfect for our family trip. What a beautiful house to stay in during our time in Kaikoura. The host was also great. 10/10 would recommend."

"Overall good on arrival but a total power failure and no back up on the first morning left us with no alternative but to leave. We are seeking a refund for the second day, but your Web site does not seem to cater for this eventuality. "

"A great location for views of the mountains and sea. The living area of the house is very spacious. Comfortable beds and ample heating for the colder weather. Care is needed backing out onto the main road. (Small cars can turn at the top of the drive.) Hostess was very good at communicating before, during and after our stay. responsive"

"We loved the views from this quintessential NZ bach and the lovely walks in the surrounding area. It was well equipped and the beds and top quality sheets were appreciated. "

"This property has only 1 bathroom/toilet, though there are 2 bedrooms with several beds."

"Such a unique and interesting place to stay. We enjoyed it a great deal. "

"Great location and views from outside space"
