Moenui Magic

HeleneRating, 5 stars3 days ago

Amazing! The birds singing, sun streaming through the big front facing windows, outdoor furniture around the house meant you could sit anywhere. The house has special quirky, shabby chic ornaments, very tasteful decoration. Plenty of extra bits and pieces if you forget anything, Jane has thought of everything. So I appreciated staying here...Thank you.

Absolute Waterfront Picton Waikawa Bay

BronwynRating, 5 stars3 days ago

Really enjoyed our stay,sadly only one night! Great spot with amazing view, absolute waterfront. Only a few minutes drive from Picton and the ferry, easy to park. Steps down are well lit at night which is handy. Great to be able to bring our dog who enjoyed a potter around outside. Inside was very well set up, bed was really comfortable and everything was spotless and ready to enjoy and relax in. Would book again if back in the neighborhood. Thanks.

Nelson Beachfront Luxury Apartment

BranaghRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Such a lovely place to stay! We travelled to Nelson for a work related trip and this had absolutely everything we needed. Beautiful views over the ocean and walkable distance to a few nearby restaurants. We had one minor inconvenience on day one where one of us was stuck in the lift (just a note to not have bags against the walls!) - something we would have known had we read the booklet inside, however as we were using the lift to get our bags upstairs we hadn't quite got that far... Vivienne was great on the phone and her and they helped us sort this out quickly. Overall a great stay/location and would recommend highly to other guests :)

Camelot Island Retreat

5 out of 5 average rating, 14 reviews2 months ago

4 night stay which was a great base for Abel Tasman. Lovely, spacious house with a good layout, well equipped and beautifully clean. Also the decor gave it a really nice comfortable and homely feeling. Paul and Dina were perfect hosts, super responsive and helpful with recommendations for the local area. House is also a very short drive away from a really great cafe (Grape Escape) and deli - we very much enjoyed our stay

OCEAN VIEW Beachfront Apartment, Blenheim, NZ

5 out of 5 average rating, 226 reviews3 weeks ago

Wonderful place! It’s spacious, has great amenities, beautiful view of Cook Strait (and can hear the water from the place and it’s only a few hundred meter walk to get to the water from the back patio), and is so clean. In addition, Melanie makes you feel special with a personal welcome, robes, and a lot of breakfast items to make it feel like home. Mel’s communication is proactive and responsive, and she’s great to communicate with. Absolutely great place and like a 5-Star Hotel. Would recommend to anyone and would happily stay again.

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.

River View, CBD Convenience

5 out of 5 average rating, 31 reviews3 weeks ago

Cathy and I have stayed in a lot of Airbnbs, and Trudy’s is one of the very best! She is supremely helpful and has created a true paradise, from the exquisite garden terrace overlooking Nelson‘s river; to the spacious, tasteful interior; to the stocking of the apartment with everything you’ll need for a great stay. Trudy has overlooked nothing, and has created a fantastic base for exploring the great city of Nelson and beyond — right across from a beautiful city park and museum cafe; within walkable distance to other great coffee shops and restaurants; on the doorstep of the city’s popular river walk; and within easy striking distance of Pelorus Bridge Scenic Reserve and Abel Tasman National Park. And don’t forget the city’s Saturday market, one of the best you’ll see in NZ. Thanks for a wonderful stay Trudy!

Gorgeous Water Front Hideaway

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 68 reviews2 weeks ago

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.

Harbour View One - Nelson Waterfront Apartment

KatieRating, 5 stars4 months ago

Love the views and nice house with good amenities but just fyi the location is hard for Uber drivers and taxis to drive up so they will drop you off at the bottom of the hill. As long as you don’t mind a walk for the beautiful views that the Airbnb it’s a perfect place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Vicki’s. The evening sunsets were amazing. We enjoyed playing cards on the deck. The beds were very comfortable. We were glad to have a car to drive to some lovely beaches, groceries and restaurants.
