A lovely stay in Motueka

This home is lovely and we enjoyed our stay greatly. Clean, spacious, quiet, and only a 5-minute walk into town. Great backyard too. It is someones actual home and not just a rental property, but if you're fine with family photos and some personal belongings, it's a great place to stay in Motueka.

Family and dog friendly.

Great location within east walk to the Main Street of Motueka. Short drive to great beaches in Abel Tasman Park (Mārahau and Kaiteriteri). Lots to do in local area with wine tasting, berry picking and great cafes. Home had all we needed. The sleepout was great as allowed teenagers to have their own space. Highly recommend.

Comfortable and practical

A very comfortable house. Two bedrooms were all we required although there was also a sleepout. Kitchen had all we needed. The location is great. Walk to supermarket and the main street is 2-3 minutes. So easy to walk to the main street to buy food. Access to the school pool available, and the pool looked great although we didn't use it. Great TV with movie channels.

Our stay in Motueka for 1 week

Nice house. Great area so close to town. Grt the bed was good as some are sure not. Very comfortable . One thing that needs mentioning on the site is the deep step-down into the toilet area. This is not suitable for many disabled people..this Inc dementia. Lovely out door area, we had a family lunch there. Everything was great (appart from step..) a smaller fry pan, with lid pref would be helpful, toast rack also. We enjoyed our stay, and recommend it to others......but please mention the step.

Thank you for holidaying at my house, I’m very pleased you had a nice time, I have since purchased a smaller fry pan and included a note in the website about a step down to the bathroom & toilet. I have a toast rack, it lives on top of the microwave. Thanks Adele

Motueka Hideaway - Perfect!

This property far exceeded our expectations for our week-long stay. It is perfectly situated and extremely quiet. The gentle airflow through the property is fantastic and kept the place the perfect temperature for our stay. The kitchen is very well appointed and nicely laid out for cooking. The lounge furniture is very comfortable - it felt just like home. The outdoor space is fantastic with a nicely fenced yard, picnic table, shade umbrella, BBQ, and clothesline surrounded by fruit trees. It was a favorite spot in the morning sun. Adele was a pleasure to work with and was very kind and responsive. The best compliment a guest can give a vacation property is to say we weren't ready to leave and that was definitely the case with Adele's place in Motueka. Highly recommend.
