Perfect setting, perfect holiday
We LOVED this house!!! Fabulous, modern, immaculate house just where you want to be! Perfect for a large family/friend group. Walkable to grocery store, park, beach & bars and restaurants at The Wharf! Latest fabulous appliances, incl a barista-quality coffee maker with extra beans as a gift. Lovely showers with great pressure. Real Clean and Green NZ inside/outside living with fully retractable windows/doors. Composting out back. So key to be able to do laundry and hang in the sun and breeze! Well-designed space to sprawl/relax/play. 8-yr old loved the trampoline, swing and pool. Emma was a great communicator and gave hiking recommendations and very kindly left snacks. Could not have been happier! Thank you for sharing your home. Made the trip amazing!!

BayRidge, spacious and scenic.
It was a challenge to find a place that would fit our close family of 16 (adults and late teenagers) to celebrate the wedding of our daughter, but I am so pleased that we found Bay Ridge. We had a fantastic time , loved the gardens , the views and heaps of space. The short and scenic drive to Kaiteriteri beach was so easy as well as the walk to the delightful split apple rock and beach. It was such a pity that due to travel / arrangements we could not stay longer. Highly recommend the place and again thanx to Annie who is a fantastic host.

Country Paradise with Views - Spa + Swimming Pool
Great place to stay . Very accommodating host. Is better than photos.

Panoramic view estate 3 min walk to Beach & Coffee
This property is everything one could ask for. The house is spacious which allows for privacy for all party members. It is an old house with a unique feeling one can appreciate. The house is very well equipped and the garden is spectacular. The view is breathtaking one does not want to leave the house! The host is lovely, very responsive and helpful! We would stay longer if we could . Very highly recommended!

Home in Nelson
Wonderful stay at Matt and Lucy's. the home was well appointed with everything we needed. the pool and the spa was very good and we felt super relaxed and comfortable here. would happily recommend.

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

Marsden Escape - Views, Spa and Swimming Pool
We loved our stay at Swim, Sun, Sleep, Repeat! The house was immaculate but also very homely. The location was in a quiet suburb of Nelson but backed onto open countryside ideal for walking out .The Sprig & Fern pub had just opened only 10 minutes walk away which was very handy when we wanted somewhere local to eat. It was a great location overall as Abel Tasman Park was only an hour away and there was plenty to visitmore locally . We loved the layout of the house with all three bedrooms at the back of the house. We understand music room could also be used as a fourth bedroom but this would need arranging ahead. The lovely upstairs lounge has an amazing view in the morning sunshine. The kitchen was very well equipped ( although we couldn’t find any kitchen scissors) We loved the modern appliances especially double dishwasher. Great pool and hot tub s. Equally the family left a great selection of games .We would love to stay again if we were ever back in New Zealand - an amazing home

Totara tree house
We loved staying at Caroline’s! The heat pump was on when we got there so it was lovely and warm. We were only in Nelson one night but would have happily stayed much longer here!

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

Relax in Sunny Motueka, 4 Bdrm, near Abel Tasman
Jamie was a wonderful host. She was very informative it was always available if we had any questions. We absolutely loved this place. We had kids with us that loved the chickens and enjoy the patio out back. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed for our stay. very impressed! For us in New Zealand this has been our favorite place to stay! would definitely recommend!

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.

The Creek House
We stayed at The Barn for my partner’s birthday. Loved the outdoor bath, the location, the ducks (especially our one friend who would visit us every day). The beach access path made the National Park feel like a private extension of our little home. There weren’t a lot of options nearby for food as many places close for winter so I’d recommend grabbing groceries in a nearby town before heading in. The Barn had a small general store & we had the best burgers at Fat Tui nearby. The staff & the scenery were fantastic and we are excited to come back in the future for another stay. Thank you!

Richmond Tasman Nelson New 3brm
Very accommodating given the short notice. Nothing was too much of a request. Would definitely stay again.

Mariri Heights Tasman Coastal Retreat
We loved our 1 week stay for our summer holiday in Moteuka. We loved staying somewhere rural with beautiful views, but a quick 5 min drive to town. Yvette and Ross are such friendly hosts. Thank you for sharing your property with us. We all loved the pond area, warm enough to swim, paddleboard, or sit in our rings and relax in! The house was very clean and well presented. Comfortable beds. Plenty of room for our family of 4. Appreciated all the included things we could use in the kitchen/bathroom/laundry, makes a big difference not having to buy all of these extras. Wonderful big deck. The bedrooms did get hot at night for sleeping, fans were provided though and there is aircon in the living area. Smaller studio unit underneath the main house can be rented too if traveling with more people. Would highly recommend and would love to return one day. Thank you

Converted Stables on a Hops Farm
Great location for us as we live near by and are renovating our house. Place very clean , tidy and nicely presented. Thanks Edi

Lovely rural home near the Kahurangi NP.
This was a great peaceful place to stay. It allowed us to spread out and enjoy the rural surrounds. The property exceeded our expectations and Alistair was very responsive. To our questions. The new outdoor baths were a favourite, as were the multiple parts of the deck to enjoy at different times of the day.

Seaview on Brooklands
Very comfortable home. Everything we needed. Driveway access was a bit tight for our cars.

Kaiteriteri Beach House
Perfect stay for our family of 4! We loved the estuary views from the living room and kitchen. It was a quick and easy walk into town. The kids loved the trampoline and table tennis. The house was well appointed with all we needed. One of our favorite rentals during our 6 months in New Zealand, I highly recommend!

Takaka Hill Bach
Stunningly beautiful location. If you want to be away from hustle and bustle it’s perfect. Close to some amazing locations in the area and the National Park. Great for a family get together lots of space and well kitted out with board games for the evenings.
