Kakianau Retreat, Luxury Waterfront Apartments

Beautiful location. Beautiful Apartment. Already booked our next stay.

Could have supplied more coffee pods for a 2 night stay. A large 30inch pan would have been useful, as limited items to cook all meals

两层小别墅，我一行8个人。刚好住下。相当完美。还有一个入住日志，可以写一些话在上面。我们留下老干妈和盐了，之前也有租客留下一些调味料，看来都是达尼丁转飞了。

两间房不知道哪间是哪间，一楼的没有厨房，二楼的有。如果只租一间，很容易搞不清楚，我现在都不知道哪间是2楼带厨房的。

Everything except the security of the property-initially we arrived & both balconies were unlocked. The rear door was open on arrival.

Security as mentioned prior

Comfortable and modern apartments. They come with a good set of dishes. It's very warm if you turn on the heaters in each room. The location is on the Otago Peninsula, a little away from the city. It's quiet at night, and in the mornings, there are beautiful sunrises and lots of birds outside the window. There is a very large TV and a selection of some board games. WiFi is quite fast.

The smart toilet solution is very inconvenient. Perhaps you could get used to it at home, but in a place where you're only staying for a few nights, I'd prefer to use a regular toilet rather than waste time figuring out the features of a smart toilet. The apartment has an induction stove, so we couldn't use our Mocha coffee maker. There's no coffee press, so we had to use a Nespresso, which should have been banned from sale long ago because it produces more waste than coffee. We lived in an apartment on the second floor, and we could hear the neighbors from the first floor quite well, so ideally, of course, we'd book the entire building for one group. I didn't quite understand how the code lock for the door works, although the note says you just slam the door and it will close. I only managed to do it after 10-15 tries. The frying pan in the kitchen is very poor quality. It would be nice to add some dim lighting in the bedroom because there is only a choice between bright and very bright
