The Fairways Luxury Accommodation Kaikoura

Stayed for 5 night, had a wonderful stay thanks to the lovely manageress who talked us into apartment instead of a studio. The studio would have been fine for one or two nights, but a bit small for a longer stay. We really couldn't ask for more, the apartment was luxuriously warm and comfortable, setting beautiful, quiet, set back from the road so very little road noise. Right next to the golf course so perfect if you are into that sort of thing, plenty of walking/cycling tracks close by. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Each unit is individually owned so it looks like experience can vary. We had 2 bedroom apartment: excellent comfort,every amenity, very very warm in winter, underfloor bathroom heating, feather pillows, beautiful plants surrounding. EXCEPTIONAL service from Deka and Wayne. No streaming service but desk had html cable so luckily we had our laptop to stream. Gas fire looks sooooo attractive and inviting in photos online BUT is minimally functional. Great WiFi Not far from town centre but very quiet Definitely would stay again and recommend. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK WHAT APARTMENT/amenities YOU ARE GETTING beforehand. Our apartment had a studio attached that could be separated off but it would be dark with a narrow bricked outdoor space.

We recently did a three week road trip of the South Island, our first since we retired. We ended up staying at The Fairways twice, once at the beginning of our holiday and once for the last couple of days. Stay # 1: We stayed in Kaikoura for three nights. We’d booked a studio unit at The Fairways, after doing some research online. Booking online was very easy and quick. When we checked in on arrival, our host Deka suggested we may like a one bedroom apartment, to give us more room for the three nights. She showed us the two styles, and told us the price for the upgrade. It was a bit more money but we decided to go with it. We are very glad that we did. The apartment (number 8) was so roomy, and beautifully appointed. A large dining table, a lovely lounge area, a fully functioning kitchen with a large island, a large bedroom with a VERY comfortable king sized bed, and a lovely big bathroom. The kitchen had a full size fridge/freezer, and a gas hob and oven. There is also a washing machine and a dryer in an alcove in the kitchen, which we used both visits – very handy. A sachet of laundry detergent is provided too. Wifi was good. There were lots of trees around the apartment, which meant lots of birdlife. There was a bbq and a large outside table/chairs by the entranceway. All in all a very very nice place to stay. It feels like you are in the middle of a forest, the way the apartments have been designed. Parking was three steps (maybe four or five, but very close) away from the door in the parking area in the courtyard. The parks are all numbered which is great as there’s no doubt as to who is to park where. Stay #2 We slowly worked our way up the east coast of the South Island for the last five days of our holiday. We loved the Fairways so much that we stayed another two nights on our way to Picton. Deka gave us a very friendly welcome back, and we stayed in the one bedroom apartment again, number 8 again. It felt like we were coming home! We would most definitely stay here again if we’re in Kaikoura, and highly recommend the accommodation. It is very quiet, we didn’t hear others at the complex at all. Thank you very much Deka and Fairways for two wonderful stays.

Perfect for overnight stay in bedside. Comfortable king sized bed. Good shower with washing supplies Tea and coffee supplied, with toaster and refrigerator for use in unit. Just out of town center. Very quiet area as part of golf course area. Free Parking avaliable.Would stay again if in the area. Staff helpful. If you require a meal, you would need to drive back into town.

Had an excellent stay at Fairways, Kaikoura. The 1 bed apartment was cosy, comfortable and absolutely loved using the laundry and spacious cooking facilities. And there was a spa bath to enjoy after a long day. It's a short drive to Kaikoura town and popped in a few times easily for tours and beach walks. A wonderful stay!
