We stayed with Bruce and Jenny for one night in March 2012. It was a memorable night and one of the highlights of our 3 week stay in New Zealand. Immediately upon arrival, we were greeted and made to feel right at home. We had intended visiting the Albatross Colony the evening of our stay but the inclement weather made... More

This was one of our best stays in New Zealand. Bruce and Jenny made us feel right at home. They treated us like family and went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The room was fantastic and the views of the sunrise were beautiful. A great place to stay!

What a wonderful B and B certainly one of the best we stayed in during our trip to New Zealand. As soon as we arrived we developed an instant rapore with Bruce and Jenny. They are a lovely couple and made us feel very welcome and at home in their immaculate and comfortable house. The room was great and the... More

Just spent a fantastic night in this B&B two weeks ago. We are four persons and when travelling to Dunedin we preferred to try a B&B. We googled and then booked Callies B&B. This I think is one of the best decision we made during the trip. It's in a good position to investigate the places of interests on the... More

My husband and I stayed with the Callisters for Christmas. Due to the Christchurch earthquake we were delayed a day and were only able to spend one night with them, but this was no problem for them at all. We left wishing we could have spent our entire 2 weeks at Callie's B&B! When we arrived on Christmas day we... More

Callies is in a great location and the view alone is worth the visit. Jenny and Bruce are warm and welcoming; they're a fun couple to talk with. We stayed in the upstairs room which was immaculate and comfortable. The food is fantastic, especially the coffee and croissants: simply divine. As you enter Portobello from Dunedin you'll see some shops... More

The Callies B&B in Portobello, on the Otago Peninsula is a-one-of-a-kind type of lodging. Superbly located on the shores of Portobello Bay the room overlooks the Dunedin Harbour Inlet. Its proximity to attractions like The Royal Albatross Centre and Larnach Castle make it an ideal place to stay. Calling the daily morning meal a breakfast is an understatement! Jenny &... More

We received a genuinely warm welcome from Jenny and Bruce who made us feel completely at home. The room is spacious and very comfortable with a lovely balcony and private entrance. What makes Callies B&B special is the friendly hospitality and also the eye for detail in the accommodation - for example fresh fruit, flowers, thoughtful additions in the bathroom... More

Jenny and Bruce are wonderful people--we really enjoyed our visit with them in their lovely home! They were very helpful with suggestions for things to do and places to see--which were plentiful! Just a few minutes away were yellow-eyed penguins, royal albatrosses, seals and blue penguins--and we saw them all! It was so much fun! Our room was great! It... More

We intended staying at the 'The Callies' for two nights but ended staying longer as we loved it. Bruce and Jenny are such lovely people and cannot do enough for you. The situation of their house is superb. You have such wonderful views. There is so much to see and do around the Otago Peninsula. Will definitely return.
