ABOUT

ONE OF AKAROA'S BEST KEPT SECRETS

Newton Heights Bed & Breakfast and Apartments

Relax. That’s the second thing you’ll do. The first will be to admire the stunning sea views from this beautiful haven nestled into the Akaroa hillside.

Newton Heights Bed & Breakfast Apartments embraces the best of Akaroa with all day sun and spectacular views of the harbour, village and surrounding hills.

This modern architecturally designed home, furnished in a warm eclectic style, welcomes you - as do your friendly but discreet hosts Gail and Brendon.

In the mornings, enjoy birdsong from native Tui, Bellbirds, and Kereru, and a leisurely complimentary breakfast of fresh coffee and croissants, organic homemade muesli or a full English breakfast, before exploring Akaroa.

At night, unwind on your private terrace with a glass of wine, or enjoy the ambience of the shared terrace with its outdoor fire and spa pool.

Newton Heights offers an exceptional bed and breakfast experience right in the heart of Akaroa. Guests love Gail and Brendon’s approach to accommodation and recommend them for couples and extended family. You could call it one of Akaroa’s worst-kept bed and breakfast secrets!

Newton Heights is that rare luxury, a year-round sanctuary from the every-day, a warm, welcoming home-away-from-home.

GUEST REVIEWS

Our recent stay at Newton Heights B&B was the highlight of our three-week tour of South Island. The owner/hosts Brendon and Gail are engaging and gracious, their architecturally designed home is stunning and comfortable and the breakfast (complete with barista quality coffee choices) was abundant and divine. Beautiful views over Akaroa Harbour and easy walking distance to the village. Simply perfect in all regards!
