Sprockets
Cozy stay at Pamela’s sleep out! Perfect for my few days through Nelson. I really appreciated the bits and bobs for breakfast. Pamela is a great host.

home away from home
Thank you so much for letting us stay! Iveta met us when we arrived, welcomed us warmly, and ensured that we were settled at the accommodation. The airbnb was just what we needed for our short stay, was quietly tucked away, but close to everything we wanted. Thanks again!

Sunny Spot
Ideal & very peaceful & comfortable. Excellent for my requirement.

Birdsongs for Breakfast, Idyllic Modern Guesthouse
Exactly what was described, plenty of birdsong and a front row seat to watch fantail and other natives.

Dehra Doon Chalets, 3
We stayed in Chalet 3 at Cherie and Rodney’s place and are so happy with our choice. It was very peaceful and private sitting on our own deck overlooking the orchards and towards the sea. The chalet was very homely, spacious, comfortable and extremely well equipped. The friendly sheep visited us often in the paddock straight off the deck. Cherie and Rodney’s place also had laundry facilities and a barbecue to share with the other two chalets. Parking was ample and easy to use. Our hosts were quick to respond to texts and very friendly when we needed help. This property is in a great location with easy access to Abel Tasman NP and the lovely towns on the coast. We particularly enjoyed the short walk to the Riwaka Resurgence. We hadn’t heard of this gem before but it was highly recommended by Cherie and Rodney. Don’t miss it! We highly recommend staying at Cherie and Rodney’s. If it’s available, grab it!

Oka Cottage, Peace and Tranquility
Lovely place to stay with a friendly host. Not too far from Nelson and surrounding attractions but feels amazingly private and peaceful - and we loved being able to say hello to the cows! Pool was a great facility for hot summer afternoons and the cottage had everything we needed and nice spacious rooms.

Kenepuru Cottage - Mount Richmond Estate
It was a wonderful stay at Robert's. The cabin was immaculately clean. Robert was on site to meet us and was extremely friendly and welcoming. The property itself was spacious enough for us, without being too big. Everything was well stocked too, some milk in the fridge a nice touch. Had two gorgeous dogs that lived there and wander the grounds, so soft and were excellent with our two boys. We extended our stay as we were very happy with location and property. Would happily stay again.

Harakeke Hill, near Motueka

Ruby Bay Guesthouse
Beautiful and spotless accommodation - lovely outlook. Had everything we needed and everything was furnished with high end fittings and furnishings. Lovely linen and bedding. Well stocked kitchen. Thanks for making our stay comfortable and hopefully will come again when the weather is better 😊

Paradise Moetapu Bay.
Chris and Toni amazing hosts and it is paradise absolutely 💯 gorgeous place to stay. The cottage is so lovely 😍 comfortable, clean and very well equipped with anything you need ❤️ highly recommend. Thanks from Donna and Wayne.

Gorgeous Water Front Hideaway
Difficult to cover in a few words what a great find this was. We stayed for 3 weeks and felt at home straight away. It had everything we needed for a peaceful holiday, visiting family locally but also having our own space. We felt immediately and warmly welcome, but not intruded upon; the facilities were simple but superb, the bed was comfortable and the views were amazing - we could never tire of them.

The Gardener's Greenhouse - Self contained BnB
Sally and Bruce's place was absolutely wonderful! A great place to call home during our road trip (especially after a very long day of hiking in Abel Tasman). Not to mention, the bed was very comfortable! We had the best time.

Herons Nest for Two
Rod and Karina were the perfect hosts and they made us feel most welcome. The apartment was so clean and had excellent amenities. It’s the perfect spot to explore both Abel Tasman and Moteuka itself. I would highly recommend this place!

Arapiki Guesthouse
really nice place that's pretty close to the city centre and had a cosy feel to it with a spacious bedroom.

Stonehaven Cottage
We had such a beautiful stay at Jeannie’s guesthouse. Perfect place to spend a weekend away. Cannot recommend more 😊

Light and sunny studio with views and hot tub
I had a wonderful stay at Wendy and Tony's guest studio. It's well appointed, tastefully decorated, comfortable and set in a beautifully landscaped garden. Soaking in the hot tub each night under the stars was the icing on the cake. Wendy and Tony are very welcoming and attentive hosts. Highly recommended

Ruby Blue Beach House - Modern Coastal Living
We absolutely loved our stay at this Ruby Bay beach house! We had the bad luck of visiting the area during 3 days of autumn rainstorm, but Lynette & Den’s place turned out to be the perfect refuge. If anything, the space was larger than the photos made it seem and the amenities were nicer. The kitchen was well-equipped, the couch and bed were comfortable, the in-unit laundry was great. Lynette and Den were friendly and gave us helpful recommendations of things to do in the rain. We honestly wish we could have stayed longer!

Walk to beach, self-contained
A clean, well-appointed base camp for exploring the region. About equidistant from the mail boat ride out of Havelock and the southern access to Abel Tasman National Park. Nelson itself was a revelation of good restaurants, an interesting regional museum, and a lovely beach just down the hill from the Airbnb. Ales and Michelle were stellar hosts, responsive and friendly. The house was just right for two, with an efficient kitchen set-up, great amenities and a fabulous view of the beach, the bay, and the mountains beyond. Would definitely stay there again.

Our Little piece of paradise
Angela was great to communicate with, friendly and very helpful

Boutique Cottage for an Intimate Escape
We had the pleasure of staying at Pear Tree on Bronte for 5 nights. It became our home away from home after a very busy couple of weeks exploring the South Island. We did lots of day trips from the cottage, and it was so lovely to have a beautiful place to come home to each afternoon. It has a very comfy bed, and an amazing shower (with great hair products! ) Very generous provisions provided by Lynn. And the deck… Comfortable furnishings, roll down blinds, and an ever-changing view of the beautiful estuary. Plentiful birdlife, a beautiful garden, and amazing star gazing made this place so special. Thanks Lynn!

Private fully furnished guesthouse
Chinh & Tri were generous enough to let my 17yr grandson stay at their place by himself and even offered to drive him around if needed. He had a very pleasant 3 nights there, apparently the bed is very comfortable and everything is as described. Many thanks Chinh & Tri!

Park-side Studio Apartment on the Reserve
This was not my first stay so I knew it was exactly what I needed. As expected, it was comfortable, warm, safe and conveniently located with friendly but not intrusive hosts. Also a bonus is their dog who is very sweet and also friendly!

Totally Coastal! Modern studio at the Glen.
We loved our stay for two nights , peaceful location , but still handy to everything . Lovely bnb , really comfortable bed! Would highly recommend. Craig and Rebecca are great hosts.
