Vacation rentals in Waitata Bay

This was a lovely place with incredible views of the bay & all the activities associated with the ferries. We enjoyed the hike to Snout lookout & the cruise into the sound. Just a note that this is a downstairs apartment .

Perfect cozy home base for my day of visiting wineries in the area. Jacqueline was super nice and clearly so thoughtful and thorough in her setup of the tiny house. She offered great recommendations to maximize my limited time in the area. Everything was lovely (including her cutie dog!) Would absolutely stay again if I am lucky enough to visit the area again!

Jenny’s place was exactly as described — and even better. Perfect location, spotlessly clean, cosy, and welcoming. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Check-in was really easy, communication with Jenny was great, and she had a fantastic list of local recommendations waiting for us on arrival. It truly felt like a home away from home. We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Amanda, thank you. The place was exactly as described - a little down the road from where I used to live in Nelson when I was growing up, so I know the area really well. The house provided a central location for us, and we were lucky it was available at such short notice. We hadn't planned a visit to Nelson, but a series of sad family events brought us there abruptly. We only booked a day or two before arriving (unusual for us), but you made it all very easy. The place was easy to find, and central to town and to supermarkets with a car. Also very close to the bike paths. Quiet street across from the Broads close to Nelson Hospital. Nice hot shower with good pressure and plenty of room for us with our two grown sons. Kitchen is well equipped. Very responsive host. Next time we're in Nelson we'll look to see if this place is available first, before looking elsewhere in town.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Great location, very comfortable lounge and nice outdoor area too. John's apartment is very well equipped with everything you need for a lovely holiday. The bedroom upstairs is fab and the bed was super comfy. Our boat is in Waikawa so we couldn't ask for a more perfect location. Thanks John!

Friendly and welcoming. Great sunset in the evening too. Thank you!

Such a lovely place to stay! We travelled to Nelson for a work related trip and this had absolutely everything we needed. Beautiful views over the ocean and walkable distance to a few nearby restaurants. We had one minor inconvenience on day one where one of us was stuck in the lift (just a note to not have bags against the walls!) - something we would have known had we read the booklet inside, however as we were using the lift to get our bags upstairs we hadn't quite got that far... Vivienne was great on the phone and her and they helped us sort this out quickly. Overall a great stay/location and would recommend highly to other guests :)

This place is a gem. We had such a great stay. The location was perfect, a beautiful part of the country and so peaceful. We enjoyed waking to the tui's in the trees out front. The house was cosy and had everything we need. Great host and very responsive. We will be back.

Beautiful spot by the sea! The hosts were friendly and made themselves available for anything we needed. The place was charming and quaint. The view is incredible, and the relatively secluded location up on the cliff made it a really special experience. I would definitely recommend it!
