Holiday rentals with breakfast in Tasman Bay / Te Tai-o-Aorere

Coastal Bliss Cottage was absolutely perfect, as was the beautiful setting of the surrounding property. Beatrice has thought of everything to make her guests relaxed and comfortable. The place was well equipped and spotlessly clean. Our yummy breakfasts under the pergola were such a treat and we enjoyed our conversations with Beatrice and Yves, who made us feel most welcome. While the cottage is in a peaceful location, we found it was within easy reach of cafes, restaurants and numerous activities in nearby Mapua and beyond in Motueka and Nelson. We highly recommend this delightful cottage as one of the best AirBnBs we’ve stayed at and would love to return one day.

Beautiful remote spot but also close enough to drive to Havelock if required. Unfortunately it rained most of our stay but our little one still enjoyed stomping in the rain and looking at the animals. Close to nice walking tracks.

Such a unique piece of paradise. Totally enjoyed our time. Nice and Sarah were very welcoming. Would definitely recommend if your looking for an escape and wanting to unwind

This accommodation is well worth it! It is stylish, close to amenities, has a great outdoor area - all you could wish for while you are away on holiday with the family!

This was an awesome place to stay for Nelson Clay Week. It's a very short drive to downtown, has a great view, and is across the street from a lovely restaurant. It's a short walk to the beach. The accommodation itself is very comfortable and clean, and the kitchen is well-provisioned. It is located on a busy, main street so there is some commercial traffic. I'd be happy to return.

Caroline’s home is spectacular for so many reasons! She has a beautiful home inside and out and the decor was top notch! Caroline was a very gracious and welcoming host … will definitley be back!!! Thank you Caroline we truly appreciate you!

Wonderful place and great house! We felt home right away. Unfortunately we had a couple of rainy days so we were really happy that we had the whole house to ourselves. The nice big and we'll equipped kitchen and the comfy living room let us enjoy our time despite the rain outside. We were welcomed with a well stocked fridge! Beverage, cheese and cracker plate, butter, jams and honey, eggs, homemade bread and more. We loved it!

Maria and Johnathan went out of their way to help us alter our accomodation plans several times. This helped relieve some of the family tensions and made for a very peaceful Holliday.

Valerie and Ewan were very friendly and a highlight was their spectacular garden. We were very lucky to be able to help ourselves to the abundant veggie patch. Lots of yummy treats left for us on arrival. Good small supermarket, a couple of pubs and the amazing bakery. We had a very peaceful Xmas/New Year here.

After the initial shock of driving up the very steep drive everything went smoothly. Friendly communicative hosts with clear instructions on how to get into the unit. The unit had everything we needed. To top it off the stunning expansive views on all sides and beautiful lap and spa pool plus the priceless silence made this one of our best air b n b stays yet Thank you.

We found the Clifftop Retreat cabin suited our needs perfectly and Bob provided an excellent level of communication, service and local tips. He also ensured the pantry and wines were stocked with high quality local products. The accomodation was very good with comfortable bed, terrific functional kitchen and amazing clifftop views of the surrounding bay and local area. The location was perfect for our walking trips up into the Abel Tasman National Park and also fantastic local restaurants and wineries. Bob also organised a pick up from the airport for us as we arrived late at night. Overall a fantastic stay and would certainly recommend Clifftop Retreats very highly.

Honestly the best place we stayed in NZ- sad it was only one night! Beautiful apartment, incredible bed/bedding and with a swimming pool outside the front door. Couldn’t fault a thing, and very much loved the puppies! Thank you Zoe, great host and property. We’d love to come back.

Fantastic views. Cosy spacious house.

This place was exactly as it was represented. 2 bedrooms each with its own bathroom. Frozen breads available for breakfast and a selection of teas and coffee. Very clean.

Lovely little spot and Kirsty was fantastic in her communication and welcoming :). Also notified us of something we left behind which we came back for. Excellent host and service :). Would happily stay again.

Lovely little place with great views. Had everything we needed for a short stay. Jane and Stephen were great hosts and very friendly.

We had a very welcoming and lovely stay. We came back after few days camping in Abel Tasman Reserve, and the beds and shower with beautiful view were amazing. Deb is very helpful and had loads of tips for what to do in the area. The breakfast is also very good. Highly recommend staying here!

Val was very welcoming and even picked me up from the airport and baked fresh bread for breakfast 😊 room was very cosy and clean with private bathroom. Perfect for my stay before setting off on the Heaphy and easy pickup from The Sands the next morning.

Great place, friendly hosts. Was great talking to David about the local programs he is involved with regarding the conservation of the local fauna and flora.

Had a lovely stay with Carol and Geoff. They are very welcoming hosts and the bed is comfortable and the bedroom wonderfully quiet and dark. Such a treat to have fresh fruit from their garden too. Highly recommended!

Beautiful place and location, and Sally and Wayne are very welcoming. A cute little village with great restaurants and ice cream is just a short walk down the beach. I highly recommend this spot for anyone, but especially for people interested in sitting on the deck soaking up the gorgeous scenery !

Great overnight stay. The bed was super comfy, and the breakfast was delicious. We really enjoyed chatting with Rosemary over breakfast. A warm and friendly host who we'd happily stay with again.

Fantastic place with great views. Jennie provided everything you could need from local knowledge to an abundance of choices for breakfast, even including some fruit grown in her garden. she even provided us with some advice on what to do in the local area. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

loved it, the view was amazing, great to have our morning coffee and banana bread outside and enjoy it. Would go back, just be aware the drive up is a little steep but a good work out for our walks. Lovely hosts and well presented unit.
