House vacation rentals in Tasman Bay / Te Tai-o-Aorere

We loved our stay! The house has everything you need and nothing you don’t. Although it’s older it’s great to have the pool, and there are lovely shaded areas outside too. Would happily recommend or stay again - thank you!

Stunning views, every minute in this beautiful building was amazing! The location is close to Split Apple rock, which was a cool mini hike. The Abel Tasman tour booths and pick up are less than a 15 minute drive away to book a trip out into the national park. There are penguins that come up to the property at night that are hilarious to listen to, we went to an aquarium a few days later and found a stuffed animal that sounded so similar that between our group we ended up getting three of these stuffies throughout the trip just because we'd heard them at this location and it was such a good memory to have made. I Wish we could have stayed longer. Hope we get the chance to again someday!

What a fantastic harbourfront apartment — beautiful views and conveniently located near restaurants. I’d definitely recommend it!

Wonderful stay at Matt and Lucy's. the home was well appointed with everything we needed. the pool and the spa was very good and we felt super relaxed and comfortable here. would happily recommend.

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

Stunning, spacious mid century house, big homely kitchen and beautiful peaceful gardens. Short walk to the park at the end of the street. Gas heater kept the home toasty during cooler nights. Sarah was a very responsive and accommodating and we would definitely rebook if given the opportunity.

It's a beautiful property and I would love to come again. I have left my shoes behind and Karla help me to.get it back.😊 Appreciate.

On arrival the bach was unfortunately not ready for us, but this was due to an oversight by the cleaner, not Emma. Emma was super quick to respond and very apologetic when we messaged about it and couldn't have been more prompt in getting things resolved which we really appreciated. After this initial blip we loved our four night stay here. The bach feels like the best of both worlds - an old family bach and the charm that comes with that, made even better with significant modernising updates like the massive glass doors, and all the other mod cons and extras (big fridge, dishwasher, washer and dryer, heatpump/AC, Chromecast, etc). It is off the beaten track and feels so peaceful and private. Being so close to the sea is a real treat. We would love to come back some time in the warmer months so we can make the most of the amazing outdoor areas and pool! (just a bit too chilly for us softies to swim in it at this time of year... we did love the outdoor fireplace though!). :)

It was a lovely stay. Lovely home that was very peaceful and relaxing. Decor was amazing and nice and close to the beach

We loved staying at Caroline’s! The heat pump was on when we got there so it was lovely and warm. We were only in Nelson one night but would have happily stayed much longer here!

Annemarie and Chris’ place was so beautiful, truly heavenly. The kayaks were a great adventure for our girls! The artistic details and decor were incredible. Coffee was 🙌🏻. Will be back.

Smyth's home was a complete oasis for our month stay, we always looked forward heading back here at the end of the day! Beautiful scenery and lots of open space around. Smyth was very friendly and accommodating, couldn't have asked for a better home or host for our time in the Nelson-Tasman area - we felt right at home!

I absolutely loved staying here, it was so cosy and felt right at home. this home has beautiful views of the tasman region.

This house is amazing, comfy bed, great shower and bathroom, kitchen is well equipped for cooking. I would highly recommend. And will certainly be staying again.

What a great spot. This is located directly across the street from the “Queens Gardens” and a quick 5 min walk to the downtown/CBD district. Restaurants are everywhere along with shopping and things to do. The house is to the rear of a duplex so you don’t hear any street noise and the backyard is very private and the patio is covered in case it rains. Very good price for everything you get and would highly recommend the location to anyone traveling to Nelson.

Very comfortable home. Everything we needed. Driveway access was a bit tight for our cars.

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.

We stayed at The Barn for my partner’s birthday. Loved the outdoor bath, the location, the ducks (especially our one friend who would visit us every day). The beach access path made the National Park feel like a private extension of our little home. There weren’t a lot of options nearby for food as many places close for winter so I’d recommend grabbing groceries in a nearby town before heading in. The Barn had a small general store & we had the best burgers at Fat Tui nearby. The staff & the scenery were fantastic and we are excited to come back in the future for another stay. Thank you!

Such an amazing stay. Wonderful things of note: swimming hole in the river, beautiful surroundings, giant bath, amazing stars, cosy fires, really cosy beds and kind and friendly hosts. Thoroughly recommend 😊

Amazing news Nelson in a very comfortable house. The kitchen was super well appointed, and there was even a nice view from the kitchen sink. plenty of parking, both outdoors and in a garage. Walkable to the waterfront if you can handle a deep hill. Just a few minutes drive central Nelson.

The house was incredibly clean and well decorated. It had all the amenities you need for a weekend away. We loved the outdoor seating area to enjoy the sunshine. An easy drive into the city as well as local vineyards and restaurants. The lockbox made check in and out super easy. We will be back again!

Perfect place to stay, very clean and tidy, comfortable and very well equipped. We would definitely stay again!

Had a lovely stay, the house was very homely and had everything we needed. Very peaceful spot. Lisa was a fantastic host.

Perfect stay for our family of 4! We loved the estuary views from the living room and kitchen. It was a quick and easy walk into town. The kids loved the trampoline and table tennis. The house was well appointed with all we needed. One of our favorite rentals during our 6 months in New Zealand, I highly recommend!
