"Stayed at 2 bedroom unit - self contained."

"We loved our cabin at The Sandcastle. It was spacious and had a rustic old holiday camp feel about it. If you are expecting pristine modern accommodation, this is not the place for you. The setting is beautiful and only a 5-10 minute walk from one end of Pahora beach. Kitchen had all we needed to cook some meals in, although no oven, it had 2 hot plates and a microwave, toaster and kettle. Bathroom had no shampoo or soap so bring your own. The beds were comfy and towels are provided. On the Saturday evening, Steve the engaging owner got the neat outdoor pizza oven going and you just provide your own toppings, he does the dough and passata. It was a great way to chat to him and other guests for a few hours with some drinks. We felt sad to leave after 2 nights."

"Room was big and beautiful. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Everything was clean and well maintained. Parking lot was large. Staff was extremely kind. Would definitely stay here again if in the area. Thanks fir the awesome stay "

"The unit was a great size, had a microwave, dining area and was very clean. I will be staying there again in the future. Also it's handy to a couple of great dining options."

"Lots of space to socialise in. Staff helpful. Door security to get in. Kelly was very helpful. I think that was correct name."

"What a wonderful property! We rented the one bedroom “hut” with a private bath. The little hut was adorable, very clean and nicely outfitted. The grounds were amazing, with a well stocked shared kitchen, cute little living area, washing machine and open air drying area and lots of rabbits too! Fellow residents were a wonderful bunch and we enjoyed meeting everyone. You can also rent ebikes on site and they gave us an amazing discount on really high quality bikes. There is a trail system connected to the property. A wonderful beach at Rabbit island is a twenty minute ride or a 10 minute drive away. This place would also be an incredible site for a wedding or a corporate retreat. (My understanding is that the main house is rentable too and there are big tents already set up on the property.) We are already plotting a return to our hut! "

"Great place to stay!!!!!!"

"The room was very clean and nicely kept. Beds were comfortable and had a nice view of a farm and mountains behind us. The manager was welcoming as well. Would definitely stay here again. "

"Conscience of being right beside the Abel Tasman walk is great…"
