Magic views apartment*Fifeshire Villa unit2*
A warm welcome from Heinz and Akiko after long day of travel. Their place was lovely and spacious with beautiful views. Had all the necessary equipment to be able to cook, comfy bed and clean bathroom. Close to mountain bike trails and trail running. A great place to stay for relaxing and making use of all of the activities close by. Thank you 🙏

Two Bedroom Garden View
Such a lovely place to stay. So close to the two beaches, and comfortable, with everything we needed for 2 adults and 2 children. Great beds, and handy to have the washing machine too. We stayed in June, so there weren't many other units booked, so the surroundings and neighborhood was super quiet and peaceful. Of course it must be a lot busier in the summer, but such a handy place to choose for a break away. We hope to return!

Beach Front Accommodation - Abel Tasman - Marahau
We loved staying at David’s place. Was a walk to everything we needed. Had an amazing outlook onto the water. And David and his family were so helpful. The kids loved the foosball table too. Highly recommended.

Harbour View - Two - Nelson Waterfront Apartment
Incredible, shockingly beautiful views. WOW. Driveway's a little steep, but the view is so worth it - after once or twice we were experts on the driveway. So, so worth it. In the centre of everything. 10 mins to the airport. Excellent kitchen and just a lovely spot to relax and enjoy. Everything was perfect. Highly recommended

Kaiteriteri Crib Beach access modern unit
Amazing property to stay at, had everything needed for a 3 night stay, super clean and had spectacular views looking out to the ocean! Would definitely stay again.

Vox Maris apartment Kotare - beachside tranquility
Very nice apartment. Was lovely and clean and it felt very welcoming. The heater was on when we arrived and to top it off, there were some treats for us too. Bed was comfy, slept like a log. Communication was easy, Ana responded immediately and was super helpful. Nice to have easy access to the beach as well. Would definitely stay again, highly recommend this place.

Kaiteriteri Seachange, Garden Apartment
This place was exactly as it was represented. 2 bedrooms each with its own bathroom. Frozen breads available for breakfast and a selection of teas and coffee. Very clean.

Sea View and Sunsets in Luxury
Wow what a beautiful pristine apartment with a view to die for. Did exactly what we wanted it to do. Peaceful and relaxing ticked all the boxes for us. We would not hesitate to recommend. Helen was the perfect host - welcoming and friendly - nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much

Coastal Sheep Farm 20 minutes from Nelson
Smyth's home was a complete oasis for our month stay, we always looked forward heading back here at the end of the day! Beautiful scenery and lots of open space around. Smyth was very friendly and accommodating, couldn't have asked for a better home or host for our time in the Nelson-Tasman area - we felt right at home!

Spacious seaside home with a gorgeous view.
Enjoyed our stay especially the nice fireplace for the cold evenings.

Grassmere. A Home With Heart. Gardens With Soul.
What can I say! I have just spent the most amazing 10 days at Ginny & Pat's warm and welcoming home, set in the most magnificent 'labour of love' gardens. What a sanctuary of peace and beauty with every amenity you can think of. Ginny and Pat are super friendly, warm, generous hosts who were delightful to spend time with. The home is super comfortable, fully equipped kitchen with everything you can think of, and both inside and outside, there are lovely places to escape to and enjoy the different aspects of the property. Whether you want sun, shade or in between, there is a place to curl up with a book or listen to the radio , everyone with a restful vista. The garden is simply stunning, with beauty everywhere you look, full of joy and serenity. I will be returning and highly recommend this place to other guests looking for something truly special. Thanks Ginny & Pat - you have made my stay one that I will treasure and remember forever.

Family Beach House
We had English relatives with us and a 2 year old and everyone was impressed. Nessie loved all the toys and we forgot the pram but there was a buggy for us to use!

Monaco Views
This is our second stay, and it was just as great as the first. Such a relaxing and clean environment.

waterfront classic kiwi bach
On arrival the bach was unfortunately not ready for us, but this was due to an oversight by the cleaner, not Emma. Emma was super quick to respond and very apologetic when we messaged about it and couldn't have been more prompt in getting things resolved which we really appreciated. After this initial blip we loved our four night stay here. The bach feels like the best of both worlds - an old family bach and the charm that comes with that, made even better with significant modernising updates like the massive glass doors, and all the other mod cons and extras (big fridge, dishwasher, washer and dryer, heatpump/AC, Chromecast, etc). It is off the beaten track and feels so peaceful and private. Being so close to the sea is a real treat. We would love to come back some time in the warmer months so we can make the most of the amazing outdoor areas and pool! (just a bit too chilly for us softies to swim in it at this time of year... we did love the outdoor fireplace though!). :)

A slice of Tasman Village!
Sinead is a fantastic host. Really helpful, friendly and outgoing. Gypsy the dog is awesome too. Fantastic location, space and area. Thanks for all the help!!

Spectacular Ocean View
Alison was a wonderful host and her place was beautiful, even in miserable weather! Alison was very communicative and helpful with rainy day recommendations. The place is cosy and clean and in a wonderful location to explore Mapua and Nelson
