The room was really nice and had a separate lounge area to relax in when the weather wasn't great. They had a great selection of food and drinks options available. The lodge by far had the best food on the track. The staff were all really friendly.

The room was really modern and clean with a nice view from the balcony. The restaurant was lovely and had great views out over the cove. Kayaks could be hired for free and were easily accessible.

Amazing location, I was in the water front cabin so had the best views

The view is beautiful like most spots in the Marlborough sounds.

Formed one highlight of walking the Queen Charlottes Trail. Very isolated, charmingly rustic, beautiful views, relaxing outside hot tub.

The room had fabulous views of the water, was private & peaceful being in the far end unit. Not too far to town by car. Walking distance to mariner/closest restaurant.

Proximity to Picton but still immersed in the Sounds

The location is gorgeous - it was nice to get away from the town. The hosts were really nice and the breakfast was delicious. The check-in instructions were clear and helpful. They kindly facilitated our very late check in as we were getting the late ferry.

From the moment you walk into Hopewell, you get a feeling you are staying somewhere very special. After a fun and scenic little boat ride to the property (which is part of the experience of ‘leaving the world behind’), we were greeted by warm and friendly hosts and staff. We were assisted with our luggage, along a magical short / easy path through the oasis to get to our cottage. With a view to die for, our cottage was perfect in every way, clean and everything we needed (with super comfy beds!). We could tell so much care had been taken to make our stay wonderful. Do yourself a favor and order the pizzas for dinner , homemade by our hosts. They are humongous and made with delish fresh ingredients. We enjoyed them outside on a candle lit table by a toasty fire, finished off with complimentary toasted marshmallows! We changed things up to prepare our own meals on other nights which we had fun preparing in the best shared kitchen / facilities I have ever seen! There is nothing you want for.. it has everything from basic staples to sharp knives.. something you miss during travels ! (Even includes a huge, comfy living room with a toasty fireplace the staff are constantly stoking up !) We also enjoyed freshly baked homemade bread in the morning for breakfast and delicious espressos (we are from Melbourne , so takes a lot to impress us with coffee!!!). After a long journey around the South Island, we chose to take it easy at Hopewell.. easy strolls around the property to enjoy the breathtaking views, took a bike ride, played and swam in the sound shoreline with our toddler, kayaked, read a book in the hammock overlooking pristine landscape, and an evening soak in the hot tub. But you could do as little or as much as you like, with generous hosts available to help you plan activities as you desire. We found Hopewell absolutely magical, where we got lost in relaxation and making beautiful family memories together.

Thanks for a perfect stay. We enjoyed your warm hospitality, comfy bed and delicious breakfast. Our visit was quite fleeting so we didn't use the kitchen facilities but observed that the area was workable and spotlessly clean.
