Eden's Edge Lodge

5.0 star property
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (131)
"Eden's Edge Lodge is an excellent choice for exploring the Tasman area, Kaiteriteri beach, etc. It is part of a small orchard/farm, so sources its own fruit, herbs, and eggs for breakfast. Very pleasant and relaxing, yet only a five-minute drive from Matueka for restaurants and shopping."

"Nice spot to stay for a night. Great location to Nelson shops. We had an issue getting into the hostel as they ask you to call reception, however I did not have a cell phone plan to call. I emailed the hostel and did not recieve a response. We eventually were able to get someone's attention, however it would have been easier if a door code was emailed to us prior to our check in time. On the flip side of the coin, this place is very secure :) "

"The twin room was next to the kitchen where people came in and had very loud concersations until 2.30am and the first people in the morning arrived at 6.30am. The only windows where to the kitchen and the hallway and there was no fresh air. Over all too hot and too noisy to get enough sleep."

Waterfront Classic Kiwi Bach

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (9)
"We loved the location and the indoor/outdoor areas compelled us to cook in instead of heading to one of the many incredible restaurants at Mapua which we'd been looking forward to. That tells you how good it felt. It has a great outdoor fire and covered seating area which was perfect at the end of a cycling day and heading into a cooler autumn evening. It worked well after we tidied it up although there is no lighting out there once it gets dark. It sleeps 9 with bunkbed options and there were...
