One of the most beautiful houses in NZ with probably the most amazing view. You can see the coast

along with mountains just from the property and the room. The garden is too big and also has a lookout table overlooking the coast and the mountains where u can just sit for hour admiring the view. Julie and Kerry are amazing. Julie helped us with calling whale watch when we were getting late, while Kerry dropped us to the seal colony one evening. The breakfast is made by Julie herself in the morning and they were very accomodating as we had the first early morning whale tour at 7:45. Thank you for an amazing stay. Wish we had spent a couple days more.

Butter cookies made by Julie were to die for..

We had a great stay, watching the cyclone weather roll in. Great hosts, breakfast, homemade shortbread. This was our second stay and we will be booking again.

Julie was a lovely host. The room was very nice and the view was spectacular. The breakfast was perfect and nice to share the table with others. It was a short walk to town and to the coastal pacific train. We are only sorry we were only there for one night.

It is a beautiful place to stay and we were sorry to stay only 2 nights. Would have loved to stay longer

Views are amazing as photos show. The rooms are well equipped and have a great balcony, table and chairs.

Everything was just perfect and clean. Julie is an excellent host and breakfast was terrific. We enjoyed sharing the table with other guests, swapping tips on what to visit etc. Easy walk to restaurants and bars, good parking. Highly recommend staying here in Kiakoura it was the most relaxing and homely stay of our whole trip.

Thank you Julie & Kerry for the perfect stay. ( Keep up the good work on K7 Kerry)

Such a beautiful place to stay for only 2 nights but could have stayed more and would have loved to.

All views are amazing and no photo could ever do it justice, the rooms are huge with lots of space great balcony with table and chairs, nice strong shower, and really friendly and welcoming hosts.

Highly recommend staying here while in Kiakoura, easy walk to restaurants and bars, good parking.

Thank you Julie & Kerry for the perfect 2 days in Kiakoura.

We had a really lovely stay at Bendamere Bed & Breakfast, unfortunately only for one night. Next time we’ll stay at least two nights, and we can’t think of a better place. Everything was just perfect and clean, and Julie was a great hostess! We highly recommend this place.

Julie was a wonderful host and Bendamere BnB was in an idyllic and central setting. We had a great time and wish we could have stayed longer!

Julie’s homemade shortbread was a lovely welcoming touch to the stay.

It makes a massive difference on a big trip when a host makes you feel so at home that it's like going round to your mum's for breakfast - Julie was that host. Julie made us feel so welcome, it was the most relaxing and homely stay of our whole trip. Brilliant view from the garden and the laundry facilities very welcome btw.

We had a wonderful stay at Bendamere House - everything was spotless and well kept, the property was beautiful, the views onto the sea were gorgeous and Julie and Kerry were fantastic hosts. The homemade shortbread in our room was a lovely thoughtful detail and breakfast was a treat. I would highly recommend booking a stay here.

Really great to see how warmly welcoming the hosts at Bendamere House are and how much care they invest in the guest experience—from views of the bay, thoughtful breakfast, to the well-maintained gardens. Their attention to detail clearly shows up in the reviews. upwellscaffolding.co.nz
