Home in Governors Bay

Elegant Coastal Escape with Pool and Harbour Views

MichelleRating, 5 stars3 months ago

What a beautiful home in a unique location. Our three generations gathered from three countries for a lovely 5 days together in Christchurch. The views from all levels of this home are over the top. With high end cookware, two dishwashers and (my personal favorite and usual airbnb pet peeve) sharp knives, we grilled and gathered for “dinners in” every night instead of going out. Great access to governors bay pier and coffee/pizza just a short walk away. Loved this place so much and would return in a heartbeat.

Moa Heights

CathyRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Enjoyed our stay here. The place was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The location is about a 30 minute drive from central areas in downtown Christchurch so it may not be ideal depending on what it is you would like to do. It is important to note the road (or walk) up to the place is quite steep. Overall it is a very quiet and peaceful place to stay.
