Pohutukawa Farm, Mapua Inlet, sea views.

MeaganRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Beautiful spot in Mapua with amazing views. Great amenities and we especially loved the outdoor fireplace and bath - both amazing under a very starry sky. Short drive to the Mapua wharf, and was a great base for us to explore Abel Tasman (approx 30 minute drive to Marahau).

Gorgeous CBD Apartment, Parking,Netflix, AC,

NikkiRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Absolutely perfect place for the city if you need an overnight place. The location on fort street made this apartment a dream to get into the city and back from a night out! Very quiet residence and the room itself spectacular. I am surprised city apartments come in that size! The room was very cozy laid out beautifully with all the ammenities easily accessible. The lounge space was perfect for my friends and I to play our board games all night without cramming all in one space! The clear details and instructions made it easy to get settled and to pack up the next day. Hiral was very responsive and even made sure we didn’t have any other needs when we checked in. Thank you for having us stay was a lovely flat with a lovely host!

I couldn’t recommend Georges place enough! The sunrises were breathtaking. It’s right on a trail path too for easy cycling and walking routes. It was very peaceful and serene and I had the most incredible stay.

JennaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
What a relaxing and peaceful few days break at this beautiful accomodation. Waking up to the sounds of the waves, sitting on the balcony and enjoying the view we couldn’t have had a more enjoyable stay. You won’t find many places like this in the world and we look forward to coming back sometime soon.

Lakeside Haven

KeishaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The main house was very comfortable, and the guest house was a perfect retreat for our 14-year-old son—he absolutely loved having his own space. One of the highlights of our stay was the sunroom - stunning views and a peaceful place to unwind.

5 Star Beachfront Living.

SarahRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Irene’s. It was great to be so close to the beach and there were lots of shops and cafes within walking distance. It’s a scenic 20 minute drive to Snow Planet is that is part of your holiday plans. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay a pleasure. Irene was so friendly, helpful and caring. We would definitely stay again.
