A great getaway, and Martin and Verity wonderful hosts, thankyou-An isolated sanctuary with views of the bay-A great base for those that choose to trek or kayak-A modern home with a quaint cottage feel-A bath to indulge that overlooks the bay-Quiet areas to retreat-Or conversations with a host that enjoys entertaining. -I can recommend the platter to share, -as for the included breakfast, the array of jams to accompany fresh homemade bread with cooked eggs and bacon, a brilliant start to the day. Would stay again and longer next time.
No faults.

The hosts, the location, the accommodation and the hospitality are 5 stars+ the views are to die for, especially the one from the toilet! 😄6 We had an incredible meal cooked by Verity, which they offer as an extra; it was restaurant quality, superb! As for breakfast, that did not disappoint either. It too was delicious 😋 Especially the homemade bread, jams and marmalade along with eggs fresh from their hens. The whole experience was so good that we will be back if only to enjoy their great hospitality and to see more of Verity's wonderful art works. Such a talented person. Martyn also has his talents; he is the perfect host. He made us feel welcome and entertained by sharing his knowledge of the local area and experiences. Truly great people!
There is nothing not to like, except for me, the drive into Port Levy is very steep and I have a fear of heights but boy was it worth it!!! It was such a magical place that I would endure the journey again.

Martin & Verity were great hosts! We saw the reviews and pictures for this place and knew we had to stay even though it meant travelling almost an hour out of our way. It was well worth it. Martin graciously stayed up late to check us in as we weren't able to arrive until after our penguin tour in Akaroa. In the morning, we woke up to the most beautiful views of the bay and enjoyed the hot tub, fresh coffee, and an amazing breakfast spread outside on the deck. We wish we could of stayed longer to enjoy the views and walk down to the water.
The wifi was a little slow, but not an issue for us.

Verity & Martin are exceptional hosts. My elderly mother and I had the pleasure of staying at their beautiful property. They made us feel welcomed, like we were part of their family. They are a dynamic team. Amazing food was provided daily...I'm not joking when I say you will be wooed by their generous and sincere hospitality. Their passion and kaitiakitanga approach to their little piece of paradise is evident in the love and investment they have clearly put into their whenua, whare, and their local community. I consider myself very lucky to have had the pleasure of spending a lovely time in their immaculate home with two of the most beautiful humans I have ever met. I will be returning.
The only thing I can say I didn't like is that I didn't get to stay longer.

We had a lovely stay with the hosts at their beautiful home in Port Levy. Guest area was quite separate and ideal for a private stay. We had a delicious meal cooked for us for dinner and would definitely recommend this option. Breakfast was fantastic as well, lot's of options. Overall this is a great place for a weekend getaway from Christchurch and well worth a visit if travelling from further afield. Bonus was seeing a seal down by the waters edge at the bottom of the property.
Nothing we didn't like, possibly that we didn't stay another night.

This is my 2nd time staying here and I’m sure I will do so again! The entire experience is so calming and relaxing. The location and sea views are gorgeous. It’s incredibly peaceful and private. Verity and Martin ate wonderful hosts whose hospitality and cooking and cooking skills are too class. We had the most delicious 3 course dinner and breakfast with many ingredients fresh from their garden that day. The food presentation was right out of a top notch restaurant. Verity even served us delightful canapés while we were soaking in the views on their deck. Extra beach towels and fluffy robes are even provided for using the spa pool. Everything is first class, and all for amazing value.
Nothing!

I would love to come back again at any season because of the serenity and panoramic view was spectacular I felt so relaxed and rejuvenated while watching the calming water and the mountain upon reading my book..we loved the stargazing at night time while dipping to the hot tub. The food was phenomenal too it was served liked in the hotel style and it tasted delicious and fresh.
None. It’s a worth penny.

The long gravel drive bought us into what we can only describe as heaven. Martin and Verity greeted us on arrival and took us into their beautiful home. Our accommodation was lovely and comfortable with our own bathroom (with a fantastic view) small patio area, fridge and tea/coffee making facilities plus lovely homemade cookies. The views are absolutely stunning, the grounds were amazing with a steep pathway leading down the waters edge. We honestly felt like celebrities. The hosts were absolutely lovely. Verity’s artwork is something very special, a very talented lady. The attention to detail at breakfast was amazing the views were spectacular and we truly didn’t want to leave.
There is absolutely nothing you could dislike about this property other than having to leave it!

So this is one of these places. It's totally perfect in every sense. The house is amazing! Isolated, with amazing view on a bay. Hosts are super friendly - they made us wonderful breakfast (really - it's amazing) and prepared as hot bathtub for the night. They are also very interesting couple - read the book :). In the morning I swam alone in the bay (easily reachable from the property). The whole experience was perfect and imaginable value for this money.

Martin and Verity were very friendly and helpful hosts. They were industrious people who spent many years to make this remote area of Port Levy into a restful paradise. They planted many pine trees into a pine forest and harvest pine nuts. They planted different vegetables and herbs for cooking. Verity is an multi-talented artist and a chef. Therefore the meals she prepared for us were pleasing to our eyes and our palates. We wish we could be like chameleon that can fix one eye to the food, and the other to the view. The full English breakfasts and other choices were excellent, with different kinds of home-made jam to choose from. The optional dinner was sumptuous too. A spectacular sea view made the food even taste better. We enjoyed our meals inside when it was rainy and windy, and our breakfast outside on the balcony when it was warm and sunny. The beauty of the place shone through both rain and shine. This place could be named Port Levy BnBnDnV (Bed and Breakfast and Dinner and View).
It would even be better if the bathroom and the pantry are located in the bed room. It would be nice if washcloth and a trash bin in the bed room are provided,
