Waterfront vacation rentals in Nelson

We loved to spend 4 mights in the Kai-pod which oozed of creative and homey atmosphere!!! All we needed was there, the bed, bathroom and kitchen all worked perfectly and the view from our he apartment’s big opening doors and the terrace could not be had any better, wow’ through this lovely place kaiteriteri lived up to its spectacular ree re mutation. Thank you ❤️

Karryn's place was great. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. The views to the ocean were great. Everything was clean. It was an easy 15 minute walk into the centre of town. The parking space was easy to use and there were even push bikes available if you wanted to venture a little further afield. I would have no hesitation staying at this place again

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.

Great apartment with all the necessities you need, in a very convenient location with great restaurants and cafes in walking distance. My partner and I highly recommend this Air BnB! Hosts were also amazing and easy to deal with, they made our stay very easy and comfortable :)

The view from the accommodation is fabulous ! I had a really relaxing stay ! Would recommend a run/walk along the water front and a burger in the smoking barrel which is only a 5 minute drive away !!

Love the views and nice house with good amenities but just fyi the location is hard for Uber drivers and taxis to drive up so they will drop you off at the bottom of the hill. As long as you don’t mind a walk for the beautiful views that the Airbnb it’s a perfect place to stay.

Wow what a beautiful pristine apartment with a view to die for. Did exactly what we wanted it to do. Peaceful and relaxing ticked all the boxes for us. We would not hesitate to recommend. Helen was the perfect host - welcoming and friendly - nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much

Outstanding views of the water from sunrise to sunset. Jenny was very attentive as our host. The loft was very well equipped to meet all our needs.

Absolutely loved our stay here and wild definitely recommend to others to stay here , host was so easy to deal with and grate service

Felt like home& wanted to stay forever. Thanks

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!

A beautiful home in a great location. If you a looking for peace, views, space for everyone and a beach location then this is a great spot. We really enjoyed how spacious the house is, and having two bathrooms and two living areas made for fewer teenage squabbles and a more relaxing time for all. The deck is a great spot to relax in the sun. We also admired the skilful craftsman ship that has gone into renovating this grand dame of a villa. Our bikes had a sheltered spot under the deck and we enjoyed connecting up with and exploring the cycle trails (although there is a bit of road to navigate before you get to them). All in all it was a superb stay and we were sad to leave. Claire is a great host.

A wonderful home in a beautiful location with stunning views. We particularly enjoyed the pool, spa and being able to walk to amazing restaurants and wine bar. Sally and Wayne were friendly helpful hosts. Highly recommend staying

We loved our stay again at Beachfront playground. It was a great location and ideal for young children. The house is very well equipped and has everything you could need. Easy access to other bays and Abel Tasman National Park. We will definitely be back.

Lovely and comfortable home away from home. Location is stellar; tons and tons of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance.

Whole lovely house to myself with a pool and sauna down the street, and town a 5 minute walk
