Family-friendly vacation rentals in Māpua

We absolutely loved our stay at this amazing home. The views are spectacular and the location was convenient to Nelson Tasman area. Kitchen was well stocked, hot tub was nice after long days mountain biking. Would love to return soon!

A lovely and well thought out space. We felt very at home. The location was handy to get in and out of Nelson, and the view was stunning!

Great place to base yourself in Nelson. Was close to everything and a short walk to an amazing beach. The house was great, perfect size and great for the dogs - the only truly fully fenced property I’ve been in and didn’t have to worry about the dogs finding a way out. Private as well - loved it there and would stay again.

A really nice apartment, tastefully furnished and very comfortable. Perhaps a little bit of slightly intrusive noise in the daytime but quiet overnight. Lovely spa and pool area too. Only potential downside is that it’s sort of out on the edge of town. But five stars from me.

Clean and well-appointed guest suite. The views from the patio were terrific and great for relaxing in the evening. Lenny and Charise were accommodating hosts and appreciated the high chair and use of laundry facilities since traveling with an infant.

The perfect spot to relax and recharge. Spacious, comfortable and peaceful we enjoyed every moment of our stay. Roger was fantastic, communication was excellent and he was very helpful with suggestions of places to visit and things to do. The house is well stocked and had everything we needed. Our kids loved the friendly sheep and chickens and us adults enjoyed the beautiful outlook and peaceful surroundings with a quiet drink on the deck at sunset! Highly recommend Roger’s beautiful home and cannot wait to visit again.

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 loved our 1 week stay for our summer holiday in Moteuka. We loved staying somewhere rural with beautiful views, but a quick 5 min drive to town. Yvette and Ross are such friendly hosts. Thank you for sharing your property with us. We all loved the pond area, warm enough to swim, paddleboard, or sit in our rings and relax in! The house was very clean and well presented. Comfortable beds. Plenty of room for our family of 4. Appreciated all the included things we could use in the kitchen/bathroom/laundry, makes a big difference not having to buy all of these extras. Wonderful big deck. The bedrooms did get hot at night for sleeping, fans were provided though and there is aircon in the living area. Smaller studio unit underneath the main house can be rented too if traveling with more people. Would highly recommend and would love to return one day. Thank you

We loved our stay of 3 nights here, we were wanting somewhere a little out of town with peace and quiet and that’s exactly what we got. However only took us 12 mins drive to get into Motueka. Beautiful setting with lots of trees around but still nice and sunny. The house was immaculate inside and hosts had thought of and provided everything you could need. Especially loved that they allowed us to take our 2 dogs with us. Thanks so much! Can not fault a single thing, and would love to return next time we are back in Tasman area.

Ina was very prompt in comms and flexible to our booking requirements. Spacious, peaceful accomodation close to Nelson, Richmond bike tracks and Tasman region. Highly recommended

Great place for our family group, the large family bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs suited our families requirements perfectly. Great secure outdoor space for kids.

Great location, spotlessly clean, thoughtful set up by April with good facilities. We would stay there again.

Stunning location and property, great place to spend the end of 2022 with friends, hope to be back again some day

Beautiful house in great central location. Everything is nearby and in walking distance. Comfortable guestroom with own bath. And most important: a super lovely hosting familiy. We enjoyed our stay so so much. Thanks for everything!

Exactly what was described, plenty of birdsong and a front row seat to watch fantail and other natives.

Great stay at Gina and Martins place. Super responsive hosts and brought us tasty filter coffee for the mornings. Absolutely stunning views and super clean property. Highly recommend staying here. Peaceful and tranquil

Lovely place to stay with a friendly host. Not too far from Nelson and surrounding attractions but feels amazingly private and peaceful - and we loved being able to say hello to the cows! Pool was a great facility for hot summer afternoons and the cottage had everything we needed and nice spacious rooms.

Cute little cottage feel, would happily stay again.

One of the best airbnb we've stayed at. We're a big group from Christchurch and the Castle was able to accomodate our needs. Big kitchen, plenty of amazing rooms & toilets, a big living room and the whole place is just so amazing and peaceful. Glenys & Kevin was very kind to accomodate me & my team. Good communication and everything was just smooth. Hoping that we can still book this for our next competition in Nelson for 2024. Highly recommended and would love to stay here again :)
