On the Beach Marahau
Stayed with my adult kids and grand baby. We had an absolutely amazing stay at David’s accommodation! The home was set out well to suit all of our needs and had recently been updated. Access to the kayaks was an excellent way to enjoy the ocean and have fun together. Such a beautiful location central to heaps of local sites of interest, not to mention the gateway to Abel Tasman National Park. Good comms from host - very easy to book and access. Would highly recommend and would definitely return, if in the area! Thanks again David.

Nature Getaway
We had a beautifully relaxing and energising couple of days at Tira Ora. The hosts were super lovely, the place was full of rustic charm, animals and birds everywhere. The rooms were comfortable, home-cooked food was delicious, and the place so captivating, we were sorry to have to leave. Great for families, a real natural treat away from it all.

Tui Cottage-Waterfront cottage, Waikawa Bay/Picton
Our family of four had a great time at Tui Cottage. It had everything we needed and was very comfortable and warm. The view and beach access is amazing. We appreciated being able to use the kayaks. Throughly recommend.

Sea Views on Bisley
Loved Ruth's place and really found an appreciation for the art. Awesome location nice and central to town and bars and restaurants close by with beautiful views and all the homely things you could need. Place was also really cosy and homely

*Ngakuta Bay Waterfront* Queen Charlotte Sound
We had a lovely stay at Ben’s summer Bach. Waking up each morning to a view of the bay can’t be beat. The location is close enough to access Picton and Blenheim for restaurants and cafes etc while still feeling secluded and tranquil. Each access to trails and a wonderful place to kayak around. The fenced yard was perfect for my pups as well.

The Beach Apartment
Incredible little unit with everything you’d need for a night or a month away, and a friendly host

Waterfront Studio + Mooring - Waikawa Bay
Absolutely incredible. Highly recommend staying at this little slice of paradise. Will definitely be back.

'te wai tahi' maori for waters edge
It was an absolute treat to wake up each day at Te Wai Tahi and spend our time. Right on the waters edge, just a short stroll from the Mapua wharf and all its goodness, Te Wai Tahi is blissfully placed. The house had all we'd needed to enjoy our stay, with an abundance of feijoa as an extra treat. Marianne was warm and responsive. Fabulous all round.

Luxurious -Private-self contained cottage
We found the Clifftop Retreat cabin suited our needs perfectly and Bob provided an excellent level of communication, service and local tips. He also ensured the pantry and wines were stocked with high quality local products. The accomodation was very good with comfortable bed, terrific functional kitchen and amazing clifftop views of the surrounding bay and local area. The location was perfect for our walking trips up into the Abel Tasman National Park and also fantastic local restaurants and wineries. Bob also organised a pick up from the airport for us as we arrived late at night. Overall a fantastic stay and would certainly recommend Clifftop Retreats very highly.

Tokongawa Retreat - Views, Pools, Serenity!
The house is charming & feels like a well loved, well kept family holiday home. Kitchen fully equipped, a delight to find bookshelves full of games & books. The heated pool, hot tub, gorgeous deck, private path to the shore were wonderful to have. Nocturnal calls of little blue penguins a bonus. In a prime location which felt private & secure. We had a couple of issues during our stay which the management company were quick & helpful to try to resolve. Would love to return.

Tawhitinui; Connect with Nature
This is the place when you want to hide from everithing in a unique setting. Look at the sea while having breakfast, linger on the veranda and enjoy nature, go for a kayak trip, just tuck in... Just the place to be yourself.

Mapua Executive Home with swimming pool and spa
A wonderful home in a beautiful location with stunning views. We particularly enjoyed the pool, spa and being able to walk to amazing restaurants and wine bar. Sally and Wayne were friendly helpful hosts. Highly recommend staying

Mapua on the Water Bed & Breakfast w Spa and Pool
Beautiful place and location, and Sally and Wayne are very welcoming. A cute little village with great restaurants and ice cream is just a short walk down the beach. I highly recommend this spot for anyone, but especially for people interested in sitting on the deck soaking up the gorgeous scenery !

Oceanview Retreat with Spa Pool & Swimming Pools
We have had the most amazing stay! The apartment is even better than it looks in the photos! View to die for from the enormous balcony, super comfortable beds, high end appliances & friendly accommodating hosts… we don’t want to leave!

Slice of Paradise, Marlborough Sounds Sunset Bach
I booked this accommodation for our TV host and he absolutely loved the place. He couldn't stop sending pictures of the beautiful vista from the deck and loved the peaceful surroundings right on the water. Tamsin was extremely helpful with extra amenities and local recommendations and check in was easy.

Spacious seaside home with a gorgeous view.
Felt like home& wanted to stay forever. Thanks

Don’s Place
Fantastic views. Cosy spacious house.

Waterfall Bay Boathouse
Stunning place, surrounded by beautiful nature. Karen has done an excellent work on the place to make you feel comfortable and welcome with subtle details.

Endeavour Holiday Home, with Wi-Fi
This Airbnb exceeded our expectations. There was lots of room for the group of us. It had all the appliances and utensils needed in their kitchen. The hosts were great communicators and provided us with all the information we needed to get to the bnb and how to explore the surrounding areas.

Doonside Cottage at Grossi Point Reserve
We had a great time in Mapua. John and Kim were absolutely lovely and gave us very good recommendations for activities. For example we could use their bikes to go to Rabbit Island. We also had fun using their canoe. The wharf with bars and restaurants is only a short walk from the house. We would definitely stay here again.

Waterfront 2 Bedroom Sub Penthouse Apt, Picton
Awesome marina views, cozy home.

Blissful Retreat in the Heart of Mapua Village
Great place to stay. We were a group of 9 and we all had plenty of space. The location is a short walk to a Four Square and the Māpua wharf where there are plenty of eateries to choose from and lovely artisan and gift stores. Jane was a great host who communicated well and provided local recommendations. Would happily stay here again.
