Drifter Christchurch
About Property
Welcome to Drifter Christchurch, an experience for the free-spirited where our story is yours. We may not have met yet, but we can’t wait to do so and smile and laugh and sing and talk about different stories and write new ones in the snow and sun, and above all, have some fun. We don’t know everything about you, but we do know that simply by the fact you have chosen to visit us, you are curious; you want to see and feel more than you have seen and felt before, and because of that, we are excited to drift away together, somewhere, forever.
Like nothing you’ve stayed in before
Step into our house, our home, a unique hotel hostel, where you can rest or stay restless and drift between days and dreams, and nights and lights and lose yourself somewhere in the seams.
