This home is an absolute gem! It feels so fresh, modern, and thoughtfully designed - we had an incredibly comfortable stay. It is modern, stylish, and clean with beautiful and functional spaces. The location is great; tucked away in a peaceful neighbourhood but perfectly situated for easy access to Nelson, Abel Tasman, and other destinations. The house itself is spacious, pristine, and well-equipped, with great water pressure in the showers. Hayden and Krysta go above and beyond with their hospitality - their communication was wonderful and there were little thoughtful touches that made the stay extra special. This place is definitely worth every dollar. Highly recommend, and would absolutely stay again!

    Exceptional - What previous guests thought, 42 reviews
    An exceptional lodge that positively delivered way more than the photos and descriptions indicated. Spacious living areas and bedrooms, well equipped, lots of homely personal touches and a most delightful place generally to gather with friends or family. Despite the chilly weather we were very warm and cosy. The fireplace is a feature and something else!
