Coastal Lodge Kekerengu

Kekerengu

Located in Kekerengu in the Canterbury region, Coastal Lodge Kekerengu provides accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Some units are air conditioned and include a terrace and/or a balcony, as well as a seating area. My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this lodge and it began the moment we arrived. The owners welcomed us warmly and, as we had cycled all day to get to it and did not realise that the store across the street (which is in fact not a store) would be closed, we had no food for the evening. Without a moment's hesitation the owners arranged a nice supper for us, including a salad picked fresh from their garden. We spent an interesting evening chatting with them as well as another couple of local New Zealanders staying at the lodge. The bed was very comfortable, the room and bathroom were very clean, and there is a nice deck to sit out on. The location, right near the beach, is a perfect stop for cyclists on the way from Picton to Kaikoura, and we can highly recommend it!
