Harbour Panorama - Akaroa Holiday Home

Nestled in the bush-covered hills over Glen Bay, Harbour Panorama offers a lush outdoor setting from a spacious, comfortable home. Packed with charm, this classic wooden holiday-home provides rest and relaxation with beautiful vista of sea views. Make yourself at home!

You will feel immediately welcomed to this two-story accommodation, make use of the front deck hosting a lovely indoor-outdoor flow from the living space. On colder nights the mounted outdoor heater will make this your favourite place to unwind with your delicious drink of choice!

Surrounded by established trees and an elevated position, recline on the terrace with the sound of the BBQ cooking up your alfresco dinner.

Your two-bedroom, one-bathroom accommodation sleeps up to four guests. Like many rooms in the home, the master bedroom boasts a large stretching window with stunning views across the harbour. Wake up to views of the boats sailing out for another day!

Decompress from an adventure-filled day with a movie on the TV with Freeview, while setting the ideal temperature at the touch of a button on the provided heat pump.

Plan your holiday activities right here, with just a short walk downhill to the water's edge, or a five-minute drive to the town centre, all conveniences are nearby.

Akaroa is one of New Zealand’s most charming harbour towns, with boutique shops, restaurants, and rare Hectors dolphins! Could you spot them from your front deck?

Short break in Akaroa
The property was ideal for us with great facilities and space. Comments, rather than criticisms: It was very hot in the bedroom with no fan or airco - in fact my husband slept in the lounge on the sofa on two of the night. The instructions for the bluetooth sound system were not entirely clear, although it didn't matter for us as we had our own UE Boom We noticed a brand new Wifi modem when trying to sort out the stereo. Would it not be better of offer Wifi? Again, for us NZ based clients, not too much of an issue as we could hotspot off our phones, but for overseas visitors it could be more problematical. We did book this property knowing there was no Wifi so, as I say, this is purely a comment The left outside of the fridge got extremely hot - may be worth checking The solar system started bleeping in the middle of the night last night and my husband went out to reset this. One criticism - the standard of cleaning, especially bearing in mind we are paying for this, was less than good. The sidetables were very dusty and there were dirty tea towels in the washing machine.

Comfortable, authentic and relaxing.
A lovely authentic 'bach' property just 10 mins walk from Akaroa. Key instructions were clear, communication good and the property was clean and very tidy on arrival. Exceptionally comfortable bed in main bedroom, lovely large deck area with views to the harbour and birdsong all around. Comfortable Lounge furniture too, Freeview TV only but there is a collection of DVD's if needed. Something to be careful of is taking the key out of a lockbox which is above decking (it nearly fell out and could have been lost between the boards!) Also there is no wardrobe space in either bedroom so storing clothes, on a long stay, needs to be considered. Overall this is a lovely relaxing property and we will definitely be back again.
