Lemon Tree Lodge

A lovely property in a fabulous location overlooking Kaiakoura and the beach. Stunning views to the snow capped mountains in the distance. We had a sea view room with a private deck area, good sized room and bathroom with slipper bath and walk in shower. Very clean and tidy. Breakfast was a ‘help yourself’ affair left out in a communal kitchen and it was lovely to be able to have this on our deck. My only negative is that it would have been nice to have met the owners - we let ourselves in and let ourselves out etc. This was described as bed and breakfast so we thought we would get to chat to local owners as we had at other b&bs. Great accommodation but lacking the human interaction.

Staff were super nice, view was incredible and room was nice and clean! Cannot recommend enough!

A comfortable lodge, with good views to the mountains. Although we selected the garden view when booking, we should have selected the sea view. The continental breakfast selection was very good. Short walk into Kaikoura, with longer walks beyond. Although the main road was close, there was hardly any traffic on it at night, so not really a problem.

There was no personal touch, no greeting on arrival or when collecting breakfast.

No problems at all. Room was ready with the key in it. The view of the ocean and snow capped mountains was what we saw in bed when we woke up. Convenient to everything in tow and the area. You can’t go wrong trust me

Communication with host beforehand was very good, breakfast (including gluten free options) was very good, view was amazing!!!

Isolation of the building was pretty bad, was difficult to heat the place up

Views were great

Didn't receive the room we thought we were booking (red one). No soap. Kettle was dirty and couldn't be used but was replaced by staff. TV was tiny.

Loved the view from the upstairs balcony room. Couldn’t stop looking at the snow capped mountains and the sea. So beautiful. Breakfast was lovely. Bed was really comfy. Central location minutes from town and the beach.

The stairs. But if you choose to stay in an upstairs room you have to expect that!

This is the most beautiful bed and breakfast, with the most incredible view. The location is perfect and walkable into the down town. We woke up early for the sunrise and it was the most spectacular sight. The accommodations are clean, comfortable, and cozy. Our biggest regret was only staying one night. We traveled all over the country but our minds kept going back to kaikoura and this location was a big part of why we felt that way.

Veronika was fantastic. Very helpfull.
