Magic Sunset Waterfront Apartment

DavidRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Karryn’s place was a nice comfortable apartment with convenient parking. The location was close to town but not close enough to walk to. Had it been a warmer season it would have been a great location for a bike ride and bikes were provided. We would recommend Karryn’s place.

We enjoyed a long weekend in Nelson. The property was clean, tidy, warm and cosy and we were given clear instructions and greeted warmly. Your homemade muesli was beautiful and much appreciated as was the yogurt, milk and pantry items. Thank you for a wonderful stay. It was so nice to come "home" at the end of a busy day and relax in such a cosy and well appointed property.

Camelot Island Retreat

AndrewRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Paul’s house and setting matched our expectations from the listing. It was very clean, tidy, spacious, warm and nicely furnished. The lounge, dining and kitchen area looked out across the garden to the beach. Unfortunately it rained for most of our short stay so we didn’t take as much advantage of the outdoor setting and facilities as we might have otherwise done. Despite that our party of 4 adults and 3 children all enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very welcoming and were quick to answer any queries we had.

A round wooden table with matching chairs is positioned under a large tree, offering a view of a vibrant sunset reflected in calm waters. Silhouettes of palm plants frame the scene, while a ship's wheel adds a nautical touch to the setting.

River View, CBD Convenience

JoeRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Cathy and I have stayed in a lot of Airbnbs, and Trudy’s is one of the very best! She is supremely helpful and has created a true paradise, from the exquisite garden terrace overlooking Nelson‘s river; to the spacious, tasteful interior; to the stocking of the apartment with everything you’ll need for a great stay. Trudy has overlooked nothing, and has created a fantastic base for exploring the great city of Nelson and beyond — right across from a beautiful city park and museum cafe; within walkable distance to other great coffee shops and restaurants; on the doorstep of the city’s popular river walk; and within easy striking distance of Pelorus Bridge Scenic Reserve and Abel Tasman National Park. And don’t forget the city’s Saturday market, one of the best you’ll see in NZ. Thanks for a wonderful stay Trudy!
