The Kaikoura Lookout is a one bedroom retreat located amongst native plantings. You’ll enjoy off the grid living, utilising gas and solar power during your stay in our rough sawn macrocarpa hut.
In the colder months, savour a hot cuppa cosied up by our log burner in the living area with a good book. Or visit in the the warmer months and sit on the deck lapping up the sun with a chilled local wine in your hand, taking in the amazing farmland and ocean views.
Nestled in to the hillside you’ll find our Kiwi Tub, heated by log burning. Accompanied by your significant other, this is the place to watch the sun go down and listen to the bird life in the native bush that surrounds you.
Your experience here at the Kaikoura Lookout is all about being off the grid and taking time out from a busy life filled with technology, hustle and bustle. Our solar powered system allows for the basic charging of phones and other small items to keep you in touch with the outside world, but larger items such as hairdryers and some laptops or iPads will not be compatible with our system.
