Warm, welcoming and friendly staff, who went out of their way to make our stay exceptional. Beautiful restored and maintained historic building, including great wooden features, and interesting collection of all sorts pictures and objects, nicely displayed. Our spacious on-suite downstairs front room had a fireplace, generous supply of wood, comfortable chairs and bed. The fire was lit for us every evening. Excellent, generous and healthy breakfast, including great fruit salad and local eggs. Personal use of the kitchen, including fridge space, was encouraged. There is also a TV room, containing a variety of board games (we didn't use it on this occasion). Great information folder on the history of the house, and local knowledge about places of interest in Golden Bay. We could park right in front of the house. Overall a great base to explore Golden Bay in various directions.

    A beautiful peaceful place.

    A beautiful peaceful place. Well located for visiting Golden Bay, Abel Tasman and the fabulous Farewell Spit tour. The waterfalls and springs are both beautiful. If you visit on Mondays there are limited places to eat in the evening, so I would recommend making a reservation.

    Very charming town.

    Very charming town. Wish we could spend more time to explore shops and cafes. People are very kind and helpful. We checked in late, but Mohua Motel manager found us units to stay and gave us a discount for the second night. In the morning, we were offered more clean towels in case we would like to go swimming. We had dinner at Dangerous Kitchen. The food and the atmosphere are awesome. My husband bought a new pair of shoes he loves at the fishing gear shop. The lady looked into the store room and found a right size for him.

    Golden Bay has a lot to offer with quite a few boutique cafes in Takaka, lovely beaches, and interesting natural beauty including Te Waikoropupu Springs which has some of the world’s clearest water. Going further west through Collingwood to Farewell Spit a short walk to Wharariki Beach is well worth the effort. A beautiful area well worth visiting.

    It would have been very easy to fill in a couple of days around Takaka with visits to Farewell Spit, Anatoki Salmon Farm etc. Ample opportunities to eat and drink the local fare. The drive into Golden Bay over the Takaka Hill also offered fantastic views and the chance to explore a limestone cave. Waikoropupu Springs is a must do visit with great information provided.

    The Golden Bay area of NZ has a very interesting past, both from a geographical point of view and a colonisation perspective (often directly linked). Gold, coal, iron ore, graphite, asbestos (!), paint and cement manufacture, all influenced the influx of early settlers and those seeking to make their fortunes! Evidence of these past activities still remain making interesting exploration opportunities for visitors. Natural phenomena such at the Waikoropupu Springs and Farewell Spit are certainly worth visiting, the latter being both an historic trip together with an opportunity to view present day wild life in the area.

    Gorgeous view in a secluded spot. Very close to Abel Tasman for hiking and you can contact the management for a ride to the park so you can hike back to the greenie. The kitchen is well equipped, beds are comfortable and bathroom very clean (a very nice composting toilet setup they've clearly honed in). The outdoor bathtub is a great treat and has hot water. You're a half hour outside Takaka so bring your provisions for the stay and enjoy the view.

    Mark was the perfect host and provided an excellent yummy breakfast of your choice including a delicious fresh mixed salad bowl to help yourself to before cooking your breakfast for you. Tea and coffee was plentiful as well. Mark was also most helpful helping us to plan our days spent there by recommending interesting places to visit which we most likely would not have found without his help. A highly recommended place to stay in TaKaKa.

    We greatly enjoyed this peaceful, relaxing stay at Rene and Marianne’s farm. We recommend the homemade pizza offering if available, it was so delicious. We also very much enjoyed the farm tour. The hosts grow or raise everything they use in the delicious breakfasts on the farm! The BnB is a great base to explore Tākaka and surrounding beaches. Roots Bar is a great casual spot for a drink and dinner on the Main Street, about ten minutes away.

    The proprietor was very helpful. He steered us to stunning hikes! The rest of the staff was also friendly and helpful. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. Kitchen facilities were basic - fine for cooking breakfast and preparing sandwiches for days hiking. The hotel is close to restaurants and a supermarket. This location is good for visiting the northern part of Abel Tasman but not the southern or central parts.

    This accommodation was one of the most beautiful I have ever been to. The fact that the bathroom is shared does not affect it at all, because it is shared with only three rooms and the bathroom was cleaner than in a 4-star hotel. The house and the surroundings of the house were a little piece of paradise. The owners are great and very nice. Thank you for sharing this beautiful place.

    Location up in the hills behind Takaka was perfect for what we wanted - days out and relaxing evenings with home cooked food. Kitchen was brilliantly equipped. The extension/sun room added space to the living area to enjoy the view and had the added protection from wind provided by the clear roller blinds on 3 sides. We enjoyed the outdoor bath and BBQ as well.

    This may have been the most beautiful place we've ever stayed. The huge windows facing the water...allowing you to see the beauty from the bedroom, living room, dining room/kitchen were fabulous. The commitment to recycling was great. The outdoor tub....looking over the hills and water (with a glass of wine in hand)...was a piece of heaven.

    The host of the property was welcoming and hospitable. The property's main appeal is its secluded location, which is conveniently close to Takaka. It also has private access to a public beach that is nearly unoccupied due to its isolation, which we really enjoyed.
