Beautiful ocean view from this lovely holiday home

Our beautiful home is ideal for the family, a girls weekend or a fishing trip.
Enjoy waking up to the sunrise in the morning.
Two handy beaches are all in walking distance. Ideal for surfing and swimming at Campbels Bay which is 500 m walk away
The price is for up to five people, so no extra costs per person :)

Just over the road is the lagoon and the mouth of the sea, ideal for fishing and white baiting.
If you dive, there is plenty of paua.
Enjoy our lovely log fire or just use the heat pump.
Easy access if you have a camper van as we have two entrances to property.
Lovely garden to sit in and watch the sea.
Enjoy walking along the coast line to the beach.
Pool table to use and board games for a rainy day.
Extra fridge for your beer
Outdoor furniture that is lovely for sitting in that 5 o'clock sun.
If you have a dog, they will enjoy all the walks and other dogs around. The section is fully fenced.
Visit the town of Oamaru. It is very beautiful in the old part. With a very interesting art gallery and old time shops set in the Victorian days with a twist of steam punk, there is always something happening there
Moeraki is 25 minutes away. Visit Fleurs Seafood Restaurant. Beautiful food!! A lovely walk from the lighthouse to see lots of seals and if you are lucky penguins.

Best place to watch the sunrise while having breakfast
This was just the perfect place for our little family holiday. Close to the beach, even our 2.5 year old walked to and from the beach. The playground is just down the road and our four legged family member was allowed to come too. We definitely will be back. Thank you for sharing your little paradise!

Lovely location!
Pros: Beautiful spot. Plenty of places to walk & explore Clean and comfy. Most things needed included in the property & more. Loved the sunroom. Kitchen and bath/laundry Cons: byo bed linen and towels. Needs to be made obvious before booking. Other than bath and kitchen, rest of the house is a bit tired. Overall though - a pleasant stay.

First time holiday in the area.
Beaut location: that first cup of coffee overlooking the coast line plus sea scape with the sun streaming into the conservatory will be a treasured memory. Our two 'boys' were secure and had plenty of space to run around - hope no surprise packages on the garden that we missed. Very comfortable with all the comforts of home. We hope to come again.

Great house
Lovely house, easy to find in the dark and access the property and house. We were away doing an adventure race so only saw the amazing view of the sea on our last morning. Very relaxing to nurture a coffee and sore muscles. My family could not come with me due to child sickness, and I would love them to come back and enjoy this lovely house and Kakanui. Awesome area to explore. WIll be in touch to book again. Many thanks

Great bach
First time to Kakanui and this is a lovely Bach to stay in. Clean, bright but also cosy with a wood fire. Across from the beach area so great location. Short drive from Oamaru which was great for day exploring and restaurants.

Happy dog-walking
Fabulous location looking out over the sea, and with great dog-walking The fire kept the place warm and there was lots of wood and kindling. The grounds are not dog-proof, so if you have an enthusiastic escapee like I do, vigilance is required. Im very grateful we could take dogs to such a lovely place.

Homely and comfortable. Pet friendly and well fenced which makes a nice change. Toasty warm with 2 heating options. Would have liked to have use of the dryer as stated available on website but could not access locked garage. However would recommend to others
