Customer Reviews Kaikoura YHA

| I love this hostel, especially the front dorm room where I have been lucky to stay all 3 times I have visited! | ||

| I just completed a 3 month trip hosteling around the world. The Kiakoura YHA is firmly within my 5 favorites. My concern in writing a great review is that a lot of people will start coming and mess it up. Unconscientious people always love the feeling of places made great by conscientious people. They go there, destroy it and move on to the next nice place and destroy it in turn. I advise every responsible person to go there because it is wonderful! I advise the responsible people to throw disrespectful visitors into the north bay. | ||
