Rose is an excellent host and answered all questions I had about the area. The cottage is perfect for an multi night stay due to the well stocked kitchen and quiet location. I am steady planning a return visit!
United States of AmericaIt had lots of space for us to spread out our stuff that we had just used for backpacking so that we could re-pack for our car trip. The location was particularly good since it was right next to where we were dropped off by a water taxi company, it was very private and looked out over a field with mountains in the background. Also, the host was very pleasant.
United States of AmericaLoved everything about our little chalet. Was sad to leave this area. Rose was a gem of information and a riot to speak to. Wished we had more time here!
CanadaFantastic position for the National Park. Cabin spotlessly clean, well equipped and quiet. Rose gave us great advice about spending our 2 nights so we got the most from our time despite the torrential rain on the 1st night and morning. 5min walk to good local restaurant with a happy hour 4-6pm, with another two close by. Highly recommend
United KingdomRose is a marvelous local person who is extremely knowledgeable of the area and makes you feel comfortable and welcome. The chalet had everything we needed and was very cozy even in the middle of winter. Marahau is a special place.
United States of AmericaRose met us and is such a pleasure. She has Everything ready and takes you to your individual sleep-out. The place is Soooo cozy and comes equipped beautifully
New ZealandRose was an excellent hosts. She was extremely helpful with the hikes in Abel Tasmen.
United States of AmericaAn absolutely wonderful place to stay. A five star property at two star prices. Spotless, well equipped with everything you need, and in a very quiet setting. Rose is an awesome hostess. Very knowledgeable, helpful and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. We would highly recommend staying here if you are going to do any exploring, hiking, or kayaking in the northeast part of the South Island. It is at the doorway of the Abel Tasman Walk. There are also many day trips to beautiful places if you have a car. We hope to be able to return to the area sometime and wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else.
United States of AmericaLovel very clean well equipped unit. Nice views of Abel Tasman park and hills. Cute stand alone unit. Several restaurants nearby; great meal. Gracious helpful owner
