We loved the house… the spacious rooms, the gorgeous garden, the interior. The view from the bed and the bath tub is amazing. We only spent a short time there, but it is a perfect place to relax.

Absolutely beautiful!
The home we stayed in was absolutely beautiful inside and out. It felt very private, yet was close to town for food. The owners of the property paid close attention to detail in all of the amenities the home offered. We wish we could have stayed longer!!

This place is amazing! What’s not to love about sleeping facing the ocean, seeing a sky full of stars and soaking in a tub, open to the outdoors, listening to birdsong? Every comfort and detail is totally thought out.

What a gem! Exquisite design, thought and care has been put into our unit - what a fabulous stay!
This is an incredible vacation home...a little hard to find at night but so worth it when you wake up in the morning to a delicious breakfast tray and views of the ocean and snow capped peaks. You can’t beat it. I’m going to tell all my friends about it! The place is upscale and immaculate...so tastefully done. Beautiful bathroom, comfortable bed and cozy living room with fireplace. Exceptional in every way!

Very comfortable, private, high quality accommodation set up and run with great consideration and located in a beautiful spot conveniently near Kaikoura township. Do be aware that trains will occasionally pass by during the night. Not a big issue but light sleepers should consider bringing earplugs - don't let that put you off though - highly recommended.

Perfect location and awesome accommodation of the highest standard. Provided everything we needed and so much thought to detail has gone into this property - we had a perfect stay and can not wait to return.
The location and quality of this property were second to none with views out to sea at front and mountains out back. There is a nice decked area both front and back and having an electric blind in the bedroom was a fantastic idea. You could just lay in bed, open the blind and watch the sunrise over the sea. Perfect, the bath is also fantastic having the full opening door to the deck by the bath. This is a wonderful place to stay and a short walk to the beach, was great to sit out front and see the dolphins jumping!
The retreat was everything it promised and more. It was modern, private with the most amazing views. Would recommend to everyone.

Super schöner Bungalow für 2 Personen, sehr gut ausgestattet, tolle Lage, sehr gutes Frühstück, beste Ferienwohnung im gesamten Aufenthalt in Neuseeland.
I really really enjoyed the stay in Glenburn! I wanted to stay more longer. My husband really liked welcome bread and jams. Also we can see the milkyway I hope we can go Glenburn again.
