About this property

Anchor in Akaroa - Akaroa Holiday Home

  • Anchor in Akaroa is a 2-bedroom 1-bathroom cottage located in the heart of Akaroa. The slightly elevated position offers gorgeous views of the harbour and the surrounding hills.

    You'll love the combination of antique decor and modern touches, with a heat pump to keep you warm year round while still preserving that charming cottage atmosphere. Additionally, the bedrooms are comfortable and spacious, perfect for resting your head after a long day.

    When the weather is warmer, open the ranch sliders and step out into the private courtyard where you can enjoy a BBQ under the late afternoon sun. You're only a stone's throw away from the water if you feel the need to cool off at any stage throughout your stay.

    Being only a couple of minutes stroll from the main wharf and popular cafes and restaurants, you'll never be far from the action.

    The views and comfort that this Akaroa home provide will make your holiday one to remember for a long time to come!

We had a fantastic stay in Akaroa. The house was clean, warm and had everything we needed to make our weekend memorable. Set at the end of a quiet lane, it is within walking distance of pretty much everything and the perfect place for a peaceful getaway where we could enjoy the magnificent views.
