Paul's place was perfectly adequate for a couple of nights, I chose it because of the spa pool which was just what we needed for a couple of days whilst on a camping trip. Thanks

Room for Two

ChrisRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A really nice apartment, tastefully furnished and very comfortable. Perhaps a little bit of slightly intrusive noise in the daytime but quiet overnight. Lovely spa and pool area too. Only potential downside is that it’s sort of out on the edge of town. But five stars from me.

Clean and well-appointed guest suite. The views from the patio were terrific and great for relaxing in the evening. Lenny and Charise were accommodating hosts and appreciated the high chair and use of laundry facilities since traveling with an infant.

Copper Gate ecohouse. 2ha views Mapua rural home

AndieRating, 5 stars15 months ago
The perfect spot to relax and recharge. Spacious, comfortable and peaceful we enjoyed every moment of our stay. Roger was fantastic, communication was excellent and he was very helpful with suggestions of places to visit and things to do. The house is well stocked and had everything we needed. Our kids loved the friendly sheep and chickens and us adults enjoyed the beautiful outlook and peaceful surroundings with a quiet drink on the deck at sunset! Highly recommend Roger’s beautiful home and cannot wait to visit again.

Ribbonwood Retreat, Upper Moutere, Tasman/Nelson

NicolaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We loved our stay of 3 nights here, we were wanting somewhere a little out of town with peace and quiet and that’s exactly what we got. However only took us 12 mins drive to get into Motueka. Beautiful setting with lots of trees around but still nice and sunny. The house was immaculate inside and hosts had thought of and provided everything you could need. Especially loved that they allowed us to take our 2 dogs with us. Thanks so much! Can not fault a single thing, and would love to return next time we are back in Tasman area.

Mariri Heights Tasman Coastal Retreat

TraceyRating, 5 stars15 months ago
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
The exterior of the home showcases a spacious deck with wooden steps leading up. Red outdoor chairs and a covered furniture piece are visible. Lush greenery from native plants and ferns creates a natural backdrop, enhancing the connection to the surrounding environment.

On the Beach Marahau

ShandenaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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.

Orchard View Farm Cottage

Pei GeokRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Kate gave very clear instructions so we were able to arrive safely and were able to find the place easily as we had a long drive and arrived quite late. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming despite our late arrival the night before. Additional plus were the awesome welcome given to us by their pet dogs, Chloe and Amber!

Oka Cottage, Peace and Tranquility

Louise MonicaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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.

The Mudcastle 1-16 Guests (2 nights) Entire Castle

Jobelle JunkoRating, 5 stars19 months ago
One of the best airbnb we've stayed at. We're a big group from Christchurch and the Castle was able to accomodate our needs. Big kitchen, plenty of amazing rooms & toilets, a big living room and the whole place is just so amazing and peaceful. Glenys & Kevin was very kind to accomodate me & my team. Good communication and everything was just smooth. Hoping that we can still book this for our next competition in Nelson for 2024. Highly recommended and would love to stay here again :)
