Korasview a welcome haven
Sarah’s place was a welcome haven to explore the Kaikōura area. The house was spacious and clean with a well equipped kitchen. We especially enjoyed watching the sunset over the mountains from the comfortable deck chairs. Sarah was friendly and welcoming and had great tips for local attractions. One of our favourite New Zealand stops. Highly recommended.

Very nice clean and spacious property. We can say nice things about the entire property but the best part was how quiet it was, and the beautiful views.

Such a gorgeous property. A lovely hidden retreat with all the amenities needed and only a short drive from Kaikora. Views from all angles form snow cap mountains to the ocean

Had a lovely couple of days at this wonderful property. Enjoyed spectacular views of mountains, sea, sunrises and sunsets. Our young daughter liked feeding the cows, sheep and goats. A really lovely house- pleasure to be there.
