Panoramic views and total privacy. Welcome to our stunning, self contained apartment on Clifton Hill, Sumner. This is an idyllic spot for a romantic getaway with panoramic views over the estuary to the city, the Southern Alps and the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy absolute privacy, sun drenched warmth and spotless presentation. You'll hear native birds in the surrounding trees and the sound of the ocean below. If you've come for skiing or surfing check out the conditions from bed, with views from alps to ocean! Relax and enjoy a stunning uninterrupted view of the sunset and then watch the city lights twinkle to life. The apartment is fully self contained with a complete kitchen including oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, and washing machine. Because the space enjoys absolute privacy there are no window coverings so you can enjoy the views day and night. There is a flat screen TV with Netflix plus free Wifi. Air conditioning and a ceiling fan keep you warm in the winter or cool in the summer. Everything is spotless. From our apartment you are just a stone's throw from Sumner Village where you will find cafes, bars, restaurants, movie theatres, shops and of course the beautiful beaches and famous Cave Rock. We recommend having a car when you stay here as we are at the top of a hill. There are many lovely walks and bike rides in this area and you can easily hire surfboards, paddle-boards, bikes, and even land yachts. We will be happy to help you find whatever you need to make your stay perfect. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen -
