Kaikoura, Cubby House Stay, hotel in Kaikoura

Featuring a garden, Kaikoura, Cubby House Stay offers accommodations in Kaikoura. This property offers access to a balcony, tennis at the tennis court, free private parking, and free Wifi.

This was the second time we stayed at the cubby house because we loved it so much the first time we had to come back with our friends to celebrate a few birthdays! The owners always go above and beyond with everything and are so friendly. We had the most amazing stay watching the aurora lights and visiting all the farm animals. Can’t recommend this place enough for a weekend away with friends, huge place with lots of space for everyone to do their own thing.

All vacation homes in Kaikoura
Looking for a vacation home?
Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.
