Mike & Jenny's Kaka Point Accommodation

I had the most lovely stay. The property was easy to locate. Parking is right in front of the property. Mike and Jenny are such nice people. Thanks for the tip to the food cart. I had the yummy blue cod. The room was big and well equipped. There was everything I need to make noodles but I had the fish and chips instead. Everything was clean. The bed was large and super comfortable. There was a heated blanket which kept me toasty warm all night. I would come back if I visit again. The view alone is great for relaxing. It’s better than beachfront. Its elevated position means no noise from traffic yet only a small flight of stairs and you are at the beach across the street. It’s only 10 minutes drive to Nugget Point. The wifi was spotty but only because of the bad weather I think.

Mike and Jenny's is a lovely place to stay as well as being extremely well priced. Jenny is a wonderful host, very friendly and full of useful information and tips for your stay; it was a pity we only had one night. We stayed downstairs in one large studio room with kitchenette (full size fridge, microwave, sink, toaster), ensuite and very comfy bed as well as a sofa, TV and dining table and chairs. There may have been a plug-in hotplate in a cupboard but we are muddled now if this was here or somewhere else so enquire if important to you. The unit was very clean. There is a nice garden with seating outside and steps leading down to the seafront. The local Tui's didn't want to put in an appearance for me (Jenny feeds them from the upstairs balcony) but just as we were leaving one obliged! It is helpful to bring your own food as we did as the pub/restaurant is not open some days and the nearest food supplies are in Owaka which is around 20 mins drive away but does have a comprehensive 4 square supermarket (better than we expected) and a couple of cafes. You do need to pay by cash if you don't have a NZ bank account but the price is so reasonable that is very easy. It was a lovely place to stay and we highly recommend it as a base for exploring this end of the Catlins.

The best location in Kaka point with views out to sea. No matter the weather it’s a perfect spot . Handy to all the walks , bays , waterfalls and Catlins magic. A quick walk down the stairs to the beach , cafe , pub and coffee ! Such wonderful hosts ensuring your stay is special. Large studio room with good amenities. Thanks Jenny and Mike , we had a wonderful Catlin break.

We had a fabulous night here during our Catlins adventure. We stayed in unit 2 upstairs which was quite small, but just perfect. Room was clean and comfortable with everything we could need. Stunning views from the balcony. Jenny was an amazing host. Super friendly and helpful. Even bought me freshly caught paua fritters for breakfast which was so appreciated. They were Devine!! I would highly recommend staying here to anyone. Super pub a couple of minutes walk away which was great. Kaka point was the perfect place to stay. We can't wait to return.

Such an excellent place, fantastic hosts lots of local information. Can absolutely recommend to all. Made our trip to Catlins really special. The view from your window overlooking the bay is just spectacular and if your luck at night the sky will produce a special treat.
