Business Description

This Bed & Breakfast offers a fantastic lifestyle and business opportunity just 6km north of Kaikōura. Set on an 8.5-acre rural block across two titles, the property includes a well-established accommodation business alongside a separate bare land section, providing potential for expansion or grazing livestock.
Qualmark-rated B&B operates seasonally from October to April, enjoying good occupancy rates. However, there is no reason it couldn't run year-round. Guests enjoy a peaceful country setting with spacious outdoor communal areas and a dedicated lounge and dining space. The property features four private ensuite rooms, including an accessible suite, and is pet-friendly—making it a popular choice for travellers seeking a welcoming, relaxed stay.
The owners' quarters are fully self-contained, offering a generous open-plan kitchen and lounge, a master ensuite bedroom, and a private outdoor space separate from guest areas.

With great guest reviews, this B&B is a turnkey operation in a prime tourism destination. Kaikōura is world-renowned for its marine life and its location along State Highway 1 makes it an ideal stopover for travellers exploring the South Island. Just two hours from Christchurch and 1 hour 45 minutes from Blenheim, it’s perfectly positioned to capture both domestic and international visitors.

The family is ready to retire, presenting an outstanding opportunity for a new owner to take over and potentially expand this business.
