This tranquil studio apartment sits on the upper level of the Fire Station, offering a naturally light space with views of Hokitika township. Fully equipped with a sparkling, modern kitchenette, ensuite bathroom and a generous king-sized double bed plus queen-sized sofa bed.

Chief Shain is decorated in tones reflecting the West Coast skies, with muted blues and greys creating a calm, tranquil atmosphere. The apartment makes the most of natural light that floods in from its large windows. As with all five apartments, Chief Shain is fully air-conditioned, with dimmer switches that help you to create lighting to suit your mood later in the day.

The kitchenette is equipped with a microwave, fridge and Nespresso machine, so you really can wake up and smell the coffee. These facilities give you the flexibility to self-cater, if you can resist the lure of the cafes and restaurants on offer just around the corner. Sleeps a maximum of four guests.

Note, apartment is on the 1st floor, and accessible by a short flight of stairs (no elevator).

“Beautifully appointed and great value for money – The apartment is gorgeous! A lot of thought has gone into the building restoration and it definitely shows. We also appreciated all the small details including the coffee plunger and coffee bags, Nespresso machine, toaster and the included toiletries. It’s just lovely. We stayed upstairs and thought the apartment was perfect for a couple”.
