Fantastic sea view room looking over the pleasant gardens and sea. Clean, tidy and comfortable bed. Used the balcony for the last of the sun. Breakfast filling and Julie kept us entertained with memories of years gone by and the dramatic events from the earthquake

Julie gave us a warm welcome when we arrived. The room was clean and had all the amenities needed. The breakfast was well prepared by Julie. The view from the balcony is also spectacular. We felt very impressive during our stay here.

This place is a delight. We had a first floor room; comfortable but not huge, with a view to die for, and a lovely balcony. Well located, easy to find, and a 5 minute walk into the centre. Lovely hosts: we had breakfast in their kitchen, made all the more homely by being joined by their two sons,who were home for the weekend.

Beautiful boutique hotel in a great position just above the town, with the most stunning views! We had one of 2 rooms on the first floor and it was fantastic! Very comfortable bed (which was a treat as I didn’t feel too good when we arrived). Julie made us very welcome and was interesting and helpful about where to go and what to see on our 2 night visit. The shortbreads were great too! Our early morning coffee was taken looking out at blue sky, sea and mountains! Very short walk to the town with great food available. Thanks for a great stay Julie.

Near perfect B&B in Kaikoura. Lovely building and gardens, very comfortable rooms (we had room 3 on the first floor which had a nice balcony), spectacular location and views, all with a good breakfast. Short walk from Main Street and seashore.

We had a beautiful room with ocean view. The whole property is beautiful with expansive and well-maintained lawn facing the ocean. Julie and Kerry are wonderful hosts with great hospitality. We needed to make last minute changes to our itinerary but our sim card didn't work with our phone, they lent us their phone so we could make the necessary changes. Kaikoura is also a beautiful town with amazing wildlife, we'll come back and stay longer!

We took my elderly parents to stay overnight in Kaikoura from Christchurch. Everything was perfect. Julie is a fabulous host & fussed over my parents making sure they were comfortable. Breakfast was lovely & again Julie spoilt us. I would recommend Bendamere B&B to anyone wanting to stay in Kaikoura. Make sure you do the 1/2 hour drive North to see the seals

I can't say enough about Bendamere House B&B and its hosts, Julie and Kerry. We spent 2 nights staying in one of the upstairs rooms. The room was well fitted out, clean and a great size for the 2 of us. Another highlight in our room, was Julie's homemade shortbread ! A nice treat to go with a tea or coffee. We had our own balcony which we could walk out on and enjoy the uninterrupted views of the bay. Both mornings we woke up to Dusky dolphins doing flips in the bay. Very cool ! The grounds of the property are beautiful with a nice big lawn and lovely gardens. There is a viewing platform at the end of the property which looks down over the township and out to the bay. It is the perfect spot to sit down and watch what is going on across the bay whilst having a nice cold beer or wine. Our hosts, Julie and Kerry were fantastic and great to talk to. They were both very helpful offering advice and tips on things to do in Kaikoura. Each morning, we were treated to a very nice continental breakfast with cereal, fresh fruit, juice, brewed coffee and ham and cheese croissant. It was also a nice opportunity to meet and chat with other guests. Look no further that Bendamere Houses B&B if you are visiting Kaikoura. We will definitely be back.…
