Little piece of country paradise

Awatea Country Bed & Breakfast is a delight. The room with ensuite is really lovely, the bed comfortable and bathroom is great. The grounds around the house were very well kept and Boston and Bob were a delight to have around. It is a little bit out of town but very quiet. Kevin was a wonderful host and the breakfast was absolutely amazing! Would definitely recommend!

It was the best place we have every stayed in (and we have been to lots). High quality accommodation and meals were really great. We were well looked after. They went the extra mile to make us comfortable. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend.

Wonderful place to stay just a little outside of Kaikoura township.

very friendly and informative hosts. Sensational breakfast , make sure that you are hungry as they create a substantial breakfast, freshly made. It was great later to go for a walk on the farm and the bonus was the new 2 day old piglets.

nothing at all.

Lovely B and B with friendly hosts in a beautiful and peaceful location

A fabulous bed and breakfast in a wonderful location set between the sea in front and mountains behind. Superbly comfortable bed and lovely bathroom with nice shower and shampoo, lotions etc provided. Cooked breakfast available if you wanted it and Anne cooked us a delicious dinner of ribeye steak which was much appreciated as we’d done a long drive that day. Kevin and Anne are great people and excellent hosts.

Nothing, can’t fault it! Would like to have stayed longer!

Heerlijk verblijf voor 1 of meerdere nachten.

Het is een heerlijke b en b waar je heel hartelijk wordt ontvangen door gastheer Kevin. Goede kamer met mooie badkamer. Als gast kun je in de gezellige zitkamer zitten of buiten op het terras in een mooie tuin. Koffie en thee kan je de gehele dag nemen als je wil. In de ochtend krijg je een heerlijk ontbijt met verf fruit, yochurt, cereals etc. Ook een eitje naar wens ( van de scharrelkippen die rond het huis lopen) behoort tot de mogelijkheden. Prima plaats om 1 of meerdere dagen te verblijven.

Wij waren niet zo gecharmeerd van het bed; het beweegt teveel als iemand zich omdraait in bed. Toch hebben we redelijk goed geslapen.

Tolle Unterkunft

Freundlicher Empfang von Kevin, der einen tollen Humor hat. Er erklärte uns alles und gab uns wertvolle Tipps. Das Zimmer ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht, und sauber. Das Frühstück ist außergewöhnlich gut. Die Lage der Unterkunft etwas außerhalb der Stadt ist schön ruhig. Wir wären gerne länger geblieben.

Da gab es nichts.

Little paradise in the countryside - close to Kaikoura

It was so nice to be in the countryside with sea as well as mountain views - just few minutes away from busy Kaikoura. Super nice hosts, also providing dinner on request. We had breakfast & dinner in their beautiful garden. Very sad that we could only stay 1 night!

Due to Kevin and Ann’s friendliness and well-run B ans B, we had a relaxed stay in a lovely, country home!

the backyard and its view of Kaikoura Mtns was unmatched. Dennis gave us a tour of the farm animals and gardens. He and Ann made us a generous and tasty breakfast.

Excellent experience!

Kevin and his wife are excellent hosts and incredibly hospitable. Their homemade breakfasts were delicious with so many options available for vegetarians too. While it was unfortunate that our whale watching tour was cancelled, it was more than made up for by our experience at Kevin's farm. Kevin was incredibly kind to show us around his farm where we were able to feed the animals and learn more about agriculture and farming in NZ. This was truly a special experience for us coming from cities. We also had the pleasure to meet with their lovely dogs Fat Bob and Boston who are such sweethearts. We would highly recommend staying at Awatea Country B&B if you are in Kaikoura. It was a highlight of our entire NZ trip. Thank you so much Kevin for our wonderful stay!

Awatea is a lovely bed & breakfast in a beautiful location with exceptional hosts!

The location on the coast just outside of town was amazing with a fabulous view of the mountains, the room spotlessly clean with a comfy bed, beautiful sheets and towels, a delicious breakfast and an engaging, knowledgeable and super kind host. Liam made us feel so welcomed and spent extra time showing us around the property and introducing us to their animals. We loved bottle feeding the lambs! An extra bonus was a crash course in the rules of rugby as we watched the Rugby World Cup Finals during breakfast. A memorable stay!!

No complaints!

Thoroughly enjoyable - would definitely stay here again.

Host Kevin is awesome. Down to earth, incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The location is beautiful. The views - just stunning! Well appointed bathroom with locally sourced bathroom products provided. And Kevin cooks an excellent full breakfast. So many hot drinks to choose from, juice, milk, fresh water always available. You even get to help feed the animals. Very comfortable atmosphere. We felt very welcome.

Nothing we didn't like.

Loved the cooked breakfast and pikelets. I'd rate the bedding and the room (including quality of pillows) to be superior. Had an excellent 1 night stay. Our hosts were very friendly and accommodating. It was nice to be in the country, but still very close to town. Would liked to have stayed longer but we were on a tight schedule.
