Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Tasman Bay / Te Tai-o-Aorere

We loved staying here in this beautiful roomy 2 bedroom house in sunny Nelson. Loved the outdoor living with spacious deck, patio furniture and plants. House was immaculate, with quality appliances and linens. It was made even more comfortable with AC - much appreciated in the warm afternoons.

Such a little gem of a cottage. Plenty of room (mind you we weren’t there much during the day, as there is so much to do and see!), and we would definitely stay here again. Thankyou

This is such a beautifully designed and perfect retreat. I appreciate when attention has been given to design and detail, and this place has it all. Gorgeous view, lovely retreat. The stairs are no problem for anyone even moderately fit, and the bonus is the seclusion and the view below. Highest recommendation.

We were a large group cycling the Sounds 2 Sounds event so place very spacious and plenty of bathrooms. Lots of towels. Kitchen well equipped as we cooked. Short walk to Picton cafes. We were more than happy and highly recommend for a large group.

Cannot say enough good things about Relax by the River‼️ Beautiful location and an extremely clean and updated home. All of Tania’s welcoming touches made for an overall fabulous experience. Would definitely come again if in the area. Thank you Tania and all.

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.

Beautiful surroundings Listened to the birds Sat outside and watched sunrises and sunsets and tried to name all the stars.. lots of satellites scooting across the night sky too House also was not only beautiful, but very comfortable

Lovely and comfortable home away from home. Location is stellar; tons and tons of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance.

Absolutely stunning location. Such a lovely stay, wish we’d had more time to explore this beautiful place.

Nice place, handy location, enjoyed our short stay, thank you.

David was extremely helpful. Informing us about a weather warning for his area and suggesting we could delay for a day until the weather cleared

Joanne and David were very generous and kind hosts. We enjoyed their company very much - it was as if they were long lost friends. The apartment was high quality with luxurious touches. A fully functional kitchen was supported by a large range of pantry items and treats. Probably the best Airbnb bed we have ever slept in. Great wifi and television with a range of program options. We were permitted to garden forage which supplied us with a huge amount of fruit and herbs. Private parking for our car, washing machine and deck with BBQ made for a very enjoyable and memorable stay.

We had a great time. Weather was not great so we ended up spending a lot of time in the apartment and enjoyed it very much.

Garth was a wonderfully warm, welcoming and accommodating host, happily making small adjustments to personalise our stay. The apartment was spotlessly clean, comfortable and peaceful, with a serene outlook across to the hills beyond the city. We'd love to stay again when we revisit Nelson, and we encourage any potential visitors to the beautiful Nelson/Tasman district of New Zealand, to book yourselves into Garth's top-notch, executive pad for a centrally located, comfy, chilled-out stopover!

Nice comfortable apartment in good location. Well-equipped for a long or short stay. Kent was very helpful providing great information and assistance.

The apartment is spacious and has everything you need including a washing machine. The views are fantastic and everything is a quick walk or drive down the hill. Be aware, if you don't have a car - while it is very close to town, the hill is very steep if you have heavy luggage. Great exercise though! Loved Picton and this airbnb.
