3 Bedroom House with Wellness Facilities, Fireplace and Internet
Port Watch Akaroa – A Classic Kiwi Bach with Harbour Views
Port Watch Akaroa is the real deal – a traditional Kiwi bach perched above the harbour, set on roomy grounds with space to spread out. Named for its sweeping outlook across the water, it’s the perfect spot for families and friends to enjoy a laid-back Akaroa escape.
This isn’t a polished hotel – it’s a bach with heart. A mix of comfy, well-loved furnishings, retro pieces, and quirky touches give it that authentic Kiwi charm. Light the wood burner on chilly nights, flick on the heat pump for instant warmth, or throw open the doors to the big deck and garden when the sun’s out. Fire up the BBQ, crack a cold drink, and take in those magic views over the harbour.
Surrounded by native bush and tall trees, the house feels private and peaceful. The birdlife here is unreal – tui, bellbirds, kererū and more will often stop by, adding to the real Kiwi nature experience.
