Steven's place is beyond compare. It is absolutely the best of what Airbnb has to offer.
The house itself is a designer home. Modern, spacious, beautifully designed, floor-to-ceiling windows with the amazing view that is actually better than the pictures. All of the finishes are high end and no amenities are lacking. The guest bathroom is large with a great shower and a towel drying rack. The bedroom is roomy with a queen bed that is quite comfortable. After seeing the photos and description, my wife and I were expecting to be slightly let down because rarely does reality live up to such magnificent online photos--but the photos truly don't do this home justice! Above all, the view off the back windows is certainly a million dollar view!
As for the Airbnb experience, staying with Steve was the best stay we've ever had. It was an exceptionally positive experience. If you want to just stay in the house and do your own thing, there is enough space that you won't feel crowded at all. However, Steve has a wealth of knowledge about touring and trekking in New Zealand and he was gracious enough to sit with us and help plan not just our two days in the Nelson area, but also our next three weeks on the south island! He also invited us to a party and we had the chance to meet some locals and have a nice evening. I could go on and on, but I'll just say that if you are staying in the area and this house is available--stay here!
