Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Motupipi

Ligar Bay is a fantastic spot, the changing tides provide so much diversity and interest - we kayaked, paddle boarded, walked and swam in the bay and at surrounding beaches and tracks. The house itself is very clean, with beautiful outlook and the garden is lovely. Furnishings and linen are very stylish and beds were comfortable. We found the lack of curtains/blinds a little challenging - there’s a skylight without a blind directly above master bed, one bedroom has no blind and the other had sheers, which provide privacy but no light. We love our sleep in holiday! We also missed having a dishwasher - some wouldn’t care. We appreciated all the pantry staples, great indoor and outdoor showers and water toys available for guests to use. A stunning place!

Bob and Koniko were awesome hosts. They were warm and welcoming upon our arrival and throughout our stay. The arrival instructions were clear and on point and Bob had some great intel on area beaches, restaurants and other attractions. They were promptly responsive to any communications or questions we had and they were accommodating and helpful to a fault when we had any inquiries or requests. The property itself is incredible-very nicely furnished and equipped with a stunning vantage point and view over Pohara Bay and Farewell Spit. The location could not have been more convenient with easy and quick access to beaches, walks, and other amazing destinations such as waterfalls, natural springs, and unreal rock formations. There were several cafes within easy walking distance and Takaka is a 10 minute drive if you're looking for more variety or want to spend a day browsing some very cool and interesting shops and other restaurants and dining options.

This is a fabulous, quiet location (but close to shops etc) for anyone wanting to visit Motueka or the lovely surrounding area. The property has heaps of added extras - we really appreciated having a fully functioning, well-appointed kitchen - plenty of lovely crockery, glasses, decent sized mugs!, pots, pans, mixing and serving bowls, utensils etc. Comfortable beds, lovely dining space plus relaxing lounge. The heat pump plus fire place were a real bonus as it was freezing cold outside during our visit. We are keen to stay again.

We had a great stay the house was warm and comfortable with everything we needed. Very peaceful with a lovely outlook. Had delicious pizzas from Al Forno. Appreciated the coffee and wine and a lovely welcome card.

We had a wonderful stay. The hosts were friendly and helpful and the house was beautiful and quiet. The house was clean, airy, and bright with high ceilings and lots of windows and surrounded by mountains and greenery. It was only a short walk to the beach and a great central location from which to explore the Golden Bay and Abel Tasman area. We discovered a community playground just 1 or 2 minutes from the house which was a big hit with our grandchildren. We enjoyed Molly B’s for afternoon drinks and meals. Highly recommend.

Best view and a fabulous place to stay especially for five people and a baby. Plenty of baby gear which made life easier for travelling. Hot Tub was awesome especially with the colder weather we had. I would highly recommend Costa Ruby, it's just beautiful!

We had a great time at Grant’s place in Pohara Beach recovering after the Heaphy. A very cute family Bach with everything we needed - we made the most of the board games, table tennis and DVD collection. The location by the beach and down the road from a good pub and cafe was perfect. It got cold at night even in April but the fire, heaters and extra blankets kept the house cosy. Would definitely stay again.

What a lovely little oasis! The space is clean, lovely and exactly what you need! Lots of walkable restaurants, and a serene getaway. Would highly recommend!!

Carolyn’s studio was perfect for our few days in Nelson. We loved the location tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Nelson, with a view to the coastline. Everything we needed and more was provided - especially the outdoor BBQ which was super handy for cooking up a few dinners! A very cosy and private space. Thank you Carolyn for being such a friendly and welcoming host!

lovely couple, approachable and when we crossed paths had a great chat. lovely place to relax... didn't feel the need to escape. Just chilled at the pad.

Beautiful apartment with a great location. Matt, Jocelyn and Amanda were all very helpful and kind. We had a great stay and would love to stay here again when in Nelson in the future.

this is the best location I have stayed at. I still can't believe how cheap it was! they could be charging a lot more for this kind of quality. Great deal, I would reccomend

Great location handy to town , local retail and hospitality. Plenty of room.

The apartment has a well equipped kitchen and a barbecue. We enjoyed going to the fish market across the street to cook at home. Close proximity to get to Able national Park and wineries.

Great place that is surprisingly spacious Lovely outdoor area, nice visit from a weka one morning Hosts really friendly and helpful Very quiet, esp since it’s under the main house Handy location to town and beach with a nice view

Such a beautiful space, love my stay here! Sally was very helpful with local reccomendations and great comms. Will definitely be back.
