Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Kaikōura District

This beautiful home exceeded our expectations. So open and spacious and the view to the mountains was spectacular. We enjoyed the lovely bath tub and was great to have a washing machine. No wifi, no problem. We read out on the deck listening to the ducks play in the little stream. Would highly recommend 😊

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here. It was exactly what we needed after a long boat ride in the morning. The whole home was clean and well kept. Would love to stay here again.

Such a stunning stay, Susie’s place was warm and cosy with an elevated feel. The special touches were appreciated and were the best we’ve ever received at an Airbnb. Thanks Susie!

We revisited Adam's house in 2025 after enjoying a stay in 2024. It's a terrific place to spend time. The kitchen and living area are large and well planned. The bedrooms each have a toilet/shower and this was perfect for our team. We visited for an adventure race and being able to get up at different times and to all shower rather than having to queue was fabulous. I'd highly recommend this house for anyone who has a crew who tend to work on different schedules. Thanks for another lovely stay.

We loved our stay, the house was beautiful, warm and had everything we needed. We had a busy weekend in Kaikoura so only wished we could have been home more to enjoy the house. Christine checked we had everything we needed at check in and was very responsive to any questions we had. Hopefully we can stay again some time

We loved our stay here! The view from the property is stunning, I really enjoyed sitting and watching the mountains in the evening! Lovely and spacious too and the private parking was a bonus!

Perfect little batch beside the seaside

We had a great stay at the Pink Palace. The house was very clean and tidy, and had so many thoughtful touches to make it the best home away from home. We travelled as a family and it was the perfect set up. We will be back for sure!

This a clean, spacious, and warm place to stay and it's right on the main road into town. would have liked to stay another night but it was all booked out.

Absolutely incredible in all aspects. Location was mind blowing, snow capped mountains on one side and ocean on the other. Inside the cottage is beautiful, well thought out, high spec and pristine. Extremely quiet, private and peaceful. Bed is super comfy, not one bad word to say about the place. 5000/10 absolutely recommend. We'll be going back without a doubt.

This apartment opening out onto the beautiful Kaikoura Bay was fantastic. We awoke to a beautiful sunrise both mornings from our bedroom. The apartment was Immaculately presented with attention to detail in all aspects. It boasts quality fittings, towels, linen etc. Proximity to the local picture theater allowed me to nip next door to watch 'Tina' which I thoroughly loved. Walking distance to restraunts. Very, very good value for money.

Poppy’s place was in a perfect location—right across from the beach and just a short walk to the city center. The room was modern, spotless, and fully equipped with everything we needed. Communication with Poppy was smooth and easy, and she was very accommodating to our special requests. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it to others.

Lovely little spot off the main road, super easy to find, yet extremely quiet and peaceful. Easy walk into the heart of Kaikoura. Perfect for a little get away.

The accommodations were just as described and comfortable. Centrally located and within walking distance of city center. Washer and dryer do require change, and they are single units, so plan accordingly.

We had such a wonderful time here - what a location! The view from the back was gorgeous and we also had a mooch in the garden (stunning). The house was a great size for us and had pretty much everything we needed. Chris even left locally caught fish for us to take to the local chippie - was the best fish and chips I have had! Such a wonderful time - Kaikoura is just stunning! Thank you!

Great location, stunning views, and easy access to the lookout as well as only being a short way from town. Easy check in and a lovely place to stay!
