The Professor's Beach House - Brighton Home
So cute!! It truly feels like the professor has opened his home to you. We loved playing the old records on the turntable—it added such a fun touch. The management was exceptional and communication was great throughout our stay.

Scenic Hotel Southern Cross
Very run down hotel. Room and bathroom don’t appear to have been updated since the 1970’s.

Kingsgate Hotel Dunedin
The room itself was nice, two comfy big beds and a small bar fridge so just what we needed really. The bathroom though was pretty outdated, a few ratty old fixtures that could do with replacing like the broken toilet seat and towel holders etc. Everything still useable and wasn’t a major concern ...
