The place to stay in Akaroa

My brother and I loved our stay at Akaroa’s Historic Shipping Office. This delightful accomodation is clean, comfortable, cosy and has everything needed for a great visit. Close to the water, cafes and shops. Wonderful to see such a historic building being both preserved and able to be used and enjoyed by visitors.
