This would have to be one of the nicest Airbnbs we have stayed in. Firstly, the house itself is charming and characterful, being the oldest house in Motueka, and very tastefully redecorated. Secondly, the room was large, light and airy with two cute dormer windows and a large gable window, a comfortable bed and nice furnishings, and a private large bathroom. Thirdly, the enclosed verandah breakfast room and garden bbq were lovely areas to relax in. Fourthly, and probably most important of all in setting the tone of The Gables, Davy and Joanne were extremely welcoming and friendly, with just the right level of interaction to make us feel totally at home. All in all, a fabulous experience.
