La Voyageur Apartments

Property was lovely, quiet but central location. Walkable to restaurants, shops and I did walk to the grocery too (was a little longer of a trek but worth not pulling the car out again). Parking was a bit difficult as the carport is quite tight but it was nice to have reserved parking, and most things are walkable anyways, so not a huge issue. It was nice to have a 2 story unit but all bedrooms and bathroom were on the ground floor. Apar**ent was clean and had full kitchen. Property manager was also very friendly and helpful. Thank you for a great stay!

Lovely accommodation.

We did not get to stay at This property because our flight was cancelled. I called and spoke to a man at reception who was very uncaring, was blatantly rude and was not worried in the least that he was gaining hundreds of dollars for no service. I asked if there was anyway to assist since we had booked 24 hours out from the stay and was told their cancellation policy was 48 hours out from the booking start and “if you didn’t intend to stay you shouldn’t have booked” I tried to explain that the airline cancelled our flight so we had no way of getting to chc in time to use our booking. He just kept talking over me and interrupting. I asked if I could gift my booking to a CHC friend since we couldn’t get a refund and wouldn’t get to CHC until after the date we booked I was told no, no one else could stay because the booking was in my name. This man has his answers well rehe****d and speaks over his customers, does not allow his customers to advise all of the details of the issue and is happy to basically steal money from visitors without a care. I certainly no longer have a desire to visit or stay in Akoroa after this encounter. I will take my hard earned dollars overseas NZ tourism does not deserve the local tourism spend.

These apar**ents may have been luxury some years ago, but they are definitely no longer so. The entire place needs a revamp. The vertical drapes are so 90's and the bathroom heater wouldn't keep running long enough to warm up the bathroom. The kitchenette had a pair of solid hob rings, both significantly rusted. There was no sign of pots and pans so we couldn't use anyway. The bed was a double and barely fit in the bedroom. You had to walk sideways to get past it! The view is excellent which is a redeeming feature.

The office was extremely hard to find, we had to ask someone for directions The Appar**ents hadn’t received our booking from wotif but luckily they could still accommodate us. The office staff were fantastic

Location is superb. Apar**ent manager friendly and helpful. Beds were great. Do need to run around the shower to get wet so-to-speak as the shower water pressure is terrible; but wouldn't let that spoil what was otherwise a happy stay.

Plenty of room to spread out and a great spot to people watch. We were there for a few days and it was a shame the fridge wasn’t working. Also the heating wasn’t really adequate, a heat pump would have been much more efficient. We haven’t slept in a double bed for 40 years and it felt like a single. Not good for 6 foot plus person.

Excellent location and fabulous views. Unfortunately room had not been cleaned properly contacted office very poor response said they would clean while out didn't happen. Very out dated and not luxurious apar**ent!!

Great location, and generally nice unt. However have now stayed twice and both times been allocated a different unit to the one I booked. Sorted this but shouldn't have happened and would have been a problem if buisier. Bed was too soft with significant roll together.
