“Comfort and convenience!”

Reviewed 4 June 2013

We stayed at Nikau Lodge en route to Wellington and enjoyed a very comfortable bed in a spacious room that boasted great views. The hosts were welcoming and friendly, they treated us to a glass of wine and were good company which made the evening special. After a great breakfast we were on our way to the ferry but we... More

“Truly wonderful;”

Reviewed 25 May 2013

We stayed 1 night last month on our way to Picton, and was blown away by the location and spectacular views from the room. The hosts were fantastic and very helpful, and the gourmet breakfast was better than at some of the best hotels that I have stayed at. Thanks you for a great experience and we will be back.

So pleased you enjoyed our breakfast. We enjoy cookiing for our guests. We look forward to seeing you both again. More

“Wonderful Experience”

Reviewed 22 May 2013

I stayed at Nikau Lodge for a few nights just recently and I truly can't fault the experience. The rooms were lovely with spectacular views and the breakfasts were delicious! Quentin and Jane were amazing hosts, and with lots of little special details and touches, I felt right at home. Would definitely recommend.

“A home way from Home”

Reviewed 26 April 2013

Me and my boyfriend stayed in Kaikoura for one night and found the place fantastic!! Our whale watching trip was cancelled and Jane gave us plenty of activities to do in the rain including seeing the seal cubs at the waterfall (a particular highlight of ours) and enjoying glass of wine in the hot tub in the rain. We had... More

It was a shame your Whale Watch trip was cancelled, but as you found out there are lots of other things to do in Kaikoura and the seal pups are a hightlight for lots of our guests. Thank you very much for your review. More

On Frommer's recommendation, we booked our stay in Kaikoura at the Nikau Lodge. This B & B is even better than the write ups! Quentin & Jane were very gracious hosts. The rooms were great, the views were superb and the breakfast was delicious!

What a fantastic place to find in Kaikoura. The best B and B we have ever stayed in! The hosts Quentin and Jane were very welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable.
