The Clifftop apartments were built in 1992 on a one acre sheep paddock as close to the cliff face as allowed. No road noise, just the sound of the sea. Clifftop garden included in “Great Gardens of New Zealand” by Derek Fell,

The north facing upstairs apartment with separate entrance features a deck with a panoramic view of the Seaward Kaikoura mountain range, Kaikoura bay, beach, and township as well as sea and mountain views from every room. The downstairs apartment was built for tourists also but has been occupied by the owners since 1995 after much pleading by the male (gardener and potter) partner.

The size of the guest apartment is 50 sq metres. Bunks in the second bedroom, kitchen bench, and bathroom vanity were handcrafted and purpose built. A good selection of New Zealand books and artwork complement the tasteful décor and relaxed atmosphere. Wireless computer access.

Suited to whatever your degree of fitness and energy, there are a variety of walks, with exceptional views that take you around the owners’ garden, the peninsula or down to the township.

  •  Wonderful accommodation, absolutely beautiful views. Very flexible and friendly, we will certainly be recommending this property to others, and coming back ourselves! Many thanks, Jacqui 

  •  The view of the ocean and mountains is without parallel in Kaikoura. Very quiet setting above the township which is only a few minutes away by car. Clean, functional, and very warm for the time of year we visited. Highly recommended. 

  •  The Clifftop Apartment was stunning. The views across the Kaikoura harbor were unforgettable. You have uninterrupted view of the mountains and the open ocean from benches in the garden, the rooftop deck, or even from your bed. This is the perfect place to relax and enjoy a holiday. The facilities inside the apartment were very clean and modern. The kitchen area is small, but perfect for morning coffees and preparing a picnic lunch.
