This home is just wonderful. Very new and clean. Well furnished. Perfect for our 2 couples with a bathroom each. Hot tub available for use too. It’s about a block from a beautiful beach and a 15 minute walk to Kaiteriteri where there are a couple restaurants. It tons few minutes to find the door, but I mentioned that to Tamara so hopefully the directions will be improved. I definitely recommend this place.

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.

Queen's Landing

RyanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

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.

The modern kitchen features a spacious island with three wooden stools. Stainless steel appliances and sleek cabinetry are present, offering a clean and functional aesthetic. Natural light enhances the light color scheme, creating a bright and airy cooking space.
