Chalet very well equipped, clean and very spacious. Quiet without seeing or hearing the neighbors. 3min from the center of Takaka. Warm welcome of the owner, impeccable cleanliness of the chalet, everything is very well organized, own barbecue. Wonderful terrasse. A commun kitchen also with more tools if need. The reality is much better than the website's photo shows. The bungalows are very spacious, nice, feel-good . Not the feeling of cheap, box-like as photos could let think. A great place. Top location . Can be a very good base. We would have like to stay longer. Good wifi. We highly recommand. Often full so don't miss to book.

    Spacious beautifully fitted out villa with beach views in a small cluster of other villas well separated and discrete plantings to maintain privacy. Beautiful breakfast hampers delivered each morning. Deep spa bath in large bathroom with underfloor heating. Extremely comfortable bed in bedroom with views to beach. Comfortable lounge area and dining table for two. Kitchen with all amenities excluding oven, but each villa has it's own BBQ

    We absolutely loved our night here. Super clean, super comfortable beds, great space, beautiful shower, loved the basin, lovely and warm with the heat pump, but the little additional bits like the spray oil and box of tissues made it. Seeing the gardens in the morning was just the icing on the cake.

    We love this beach - especially in winter! It is also very close to some special places - Tata and Ligar Beaches, the Wainui Falls, the Grove Reserve and more - always something new to discover. Molly Bs is to be reccommended…and the cafes of Takaka are not far away.

    Collingwood and out lying areas have some spectacular scenery with very unique environments not found in other places of the world. If you want to learn some history about early NZ, this little place has bits of information signposted everywhere so forget about guessing who found the place or what kept the inhabitants there. Even the journey there from Nelson was interesting with multiple towns and side trips like Mapua, the entrance to the Abel Tasman Track, Kaiteriteri Beach, Pohara and Waipupu Springs walk which was wonderful, just to mention a couple of things we did.

    We loved the north end of the beach, tata. Lovely and sheltered, and very safe for kids to swim or play on rocks. Very friendly golden bay kayak company, to hire kayaks for a morning. Takaka was also a lovely town to walk around, good food, coffee, gifts and a market was on Saturday. Other than this, our time was too short in the area.

    When you come out of pupu springs rd turn left and go to the pupu hydro tailrace track. not to be missed. Before walking the track go to the power station and read about it. you will get a much better understanding if you do this before the walk also suggest you do the walk clockwise

    Great beach, and more good beaches nearby. Quiet summer holiday location that was still buzzing (in late Jan) with holiday-makers and had the comforts you might relish (local choices for bar & cafe & shop for groceries). A great place for a summer vacation.

    There is great scenery to be seen and some good walks nearby. Wharariki Beach is a favourite. Very dramatic rock formations, sea, sand dunes and seals. The Langford store is worth going to. Nice women with lovely homemade things to eat, drink and buy. Good collectables if that's what you like. Quirky and full of character. It is handy to longer and very scenic walks like Abel Tasman and Heaphy. I think some increased range of eating for vegetarians would be good. The Court House Cafe is particularly good for daytime food and coffee. The general store has most of what you need at reasonable prices. The Takaka Hill is a nice drive as long as you are a careful driver. Some clearly are not. Great views.

    The style of the house fits in perfect with its surroundings and area! You get a very relaxing and easy stay being able to connect with nature and the views all around you. The heated outside shower was amazing, compost toilet was very clean and modern considering, all in all the perfect blend of modern and easy to use things without looking out of place for it’s environment.

    I loved every minute in this welcoming, peaceful, loving hippie community! Check out the notice board in town and attend events with the locals-- it's worth it! I was able to hitchhike all over Golden Bay, no problem! There are so many beautiful hikes and nature spots in the area. Also, stop in for a yoga class in town! Next to the studio, there's a smoothie place called Mermaid Beach House. Tell the owner, Amba, that a girl named Jenna sent you! Everything she makes is divine! I can't wait to go back!
