Lovely spot to stay just out of Nelson.

A perfect place to return to in the evenings after big days out in Nelson the bed was comfy, good shower pressure. Recommend a vehicle if you are traveling to and from Nelson.

Quiet location on outskirts of Nelson

We had a very pleasant two week stay. It was a great base for visiting the Nelson region. With a car it was a very quick and easy journey into Nelson City.

Peaceful Apartment

Very comfortable, clean, peaceful apartment with all the amenities we needed. Great place to come home to after visiting family and enjoying all that Nelson has to offer. Vanessa was helpful when we had to follow up after leaving something behind.

We really enjoyed our stay at Vanessa and Mike’s accommodation, Makoha Place. The unit was extremely spacious, large kitchen with a great array of appliances, utensils, and bowls, and a large fridge. The bathroom was large with a good sized shower; a bonus was the laundry sink and washing machine which we used. The accommodation is in the basement of the owners house and looks across to a rural gully, very private. Convenient location very close to Nelson city (around 5 min by car), with a small supermarket and fish and chip shop close by, which we also frequented.We would love to stay at Makoha Place again on our next visit to Nelson.

Overall very good

Overall it was very good, just a few wee things. No expel air in the kitchen. The lounge suite was quite uncomfortable. Also due to the fact that it only had two windows it got very hot so sleeping was hard. A small heatpump/ air conditioner would be awesome

Just the right distance from town....

Perfectly placed property in a quiet suburb of Atawhai. We stayed a few days so my daughter could attend a course at the Centre for Fine Woodworking. I managed a couple of walks around the area, both the Saturday and Sunday markets and the Pics peanut butter factory tour. My only feedback to the hosts would be could you please get some sharper knives and update the small cooking pots/lids in the kitchen. Would stay again :-)

Brief Encounter in Nelson

We arrived at Mike and Vanessa's place in the rain. Mike was there to greet us. Everything in the apartment was as described and it was great to have a washing machine. The space was a comfortable size and the kitchen had everything we needed although we ate dinner out most nights. Everything was spotless. We did find the bed to be too soft for us and it would be nice to change it to king size if they were thinking of replacing it in the future. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the neighbourhood was very pleasant.
