"Stupendous views and great vibe."

8.0

Loved the location and character of this property. So handy having a choice of cafes downstairs. Also really enjoyed the views and crisp morning walks.

No onsite parking but plenty of free parking available in the Esplanade Carpark or 1 street back.

Well the view from the apartment was absolutely stunning! In addition this accommodation has well appointed spaces, perfect for a couple or lone traveller. Easy access on arrival with good communication from the property managers. The amenities around the area are second to none, this would have to be the best spot in Dunedin. We will definitely be back.

Couldn’t fault it at all.
