About this property

A charming Torrent Bay bach in the heart of Abel Tasman!

Relax in our most treasured hideaway. Enjoy everything a holiday could ask for, peace and relaxation, crystal clear waters to paddle in, golden sand laze on and walking tracks into the Abel Tasman for as short or long as you wish.

Watch the tide fill the estuary from the breakfast table or we are so close you could even take your breakfast to this more private side beach and enjoy the sunrise with your toes in the sand.

Let kids be kids or even let the adult be kids and explore, swim, make memories and enjoy this treasured place.

Options of walking further into the Park and being picked up by water taxi and returned back. You can also cross the estuary at low tide to visit the ever enchanting Cleopatra Pools. There are so many option for exploring this great track.
Suitable to bring your own or hired kayaks with you!

**NO ROAD ACCESS**
Torrent bay is accessible by boat or by walking the Abel Tasman National park track. Water taxi services are available from Kaiteriteri. Or if you choose to walk the track it takes 3 hrs - 3.5 hrs and leaves from Marahau with beautiful views along the way. There is a low tide track across to Torrent bay inlet or a high tide that takes approximately 45 minutes longer which goes past cleopatra pools.
There are trolleys available by the main Jetty to bring your luggage to the Bach.


Our beautiful kiwi bach still offers a great comfortable service!

*No convenience shops so bring a chilly bin to last you.

the perfect place for a special weekend.
we had a fabulous time, perfect in every way, thank you to Matt and the family for sharing their wonderful bach with us for our special weekend. So close to - beach and lagoon for swimming, and the parks tracks for walking. And when we just wanted to enjoy being at the bach - outdoor deck and back yard sunny and private. Indoor cosy - and warm, and everything needed in kitchen, particularly enjoyed reading from the collection of books about the history of Abel Tasman park. We look forward to returning again in the future.
