Karitane Cottage – Karitane Holiday Home

Head to this beautifully restored cottage to experience good times, unlimited sunshine and a fresh ocean breeze; setting the scene for a serene getaway with your loved ones like no other. Welcome to Karitane Cottage!

Light, airy and full of charm, you’ll love the classic structure of your new abode, which combines perfectly with contemporary furnishings and décor to create a peaceful and refreshing ambience during your stay.

Head outdoors to enjoy two separate decks, one sheltered and boasting a BBQ and dining area, perfect for enjoying a delicious grilled feast alfresco. Alternatively, head out the back deck to enjoy a lush, flat lawn space with uninterrupted views of the glistening Pacific, a trampoline, and a luxurious outdoor tub.

Imagine enjoying a delicious cheeseboard, prepared in the well-equipped kitchen, and enjoying a crisp glass of Otago wine with your loved one with nothing but the shoreline and sea as your backdrop. You’ll have no trouble switching to holiday mode here!

The place to be no matter the season, Karitane Cottage has a toasty fireplace and a heat pump for year-round comfort. You’ll love switching off from everyday life and maximising on quality time with your group here.

As an added bonus for film fanatics - Hollywood A-listers Gwyneth Paltrow and Daniel Craig were featured here in the 2003 film, Sylvia, once calling this Karitane seaside cottage home! Experience the ultimate movie flashback while creating some of your own memories right here.

Waking up to the idyllic sound of the waves in one of the two well-appointed bedrooms at Karitane Cottage will be an absolute treat, and with there being room for up to six guests this will be the perfect configuration for a family, couple’s retreat, or group of friends. A bathroom, additional toilet, and laundry complete the set-up for your stay.

Take advantage of the uncrowded waves at this world-class surf destination - budding young surfers will love Karitane beach being right on your doorstep.

Conveniently only a short seven-minute walk away from the Karitane General Store, grab a morning coffee, or any supplies that you may need to top up on with ease.
