We had a wonderful week at Abel Tasman villa. The view over Tasman Bay was unbelievably good (we could have spent the week on the deck just looking at it), the host was incredibly welcoming, the villa was perfect and very conveniently situated for Nelson centre. Nice touches included a welcome supply of bread milk fruit tea & coffee and items like washing up liquid and shower gel being available. Even some olive oil! It makes such a difference not to have to shop for basics at every stop when you are touring round. The villa is top class and comfortable, very well equipped with everything you could need. Nicola was very helpful on arrival but we were then left to our own devices, the right balance for us.

The only thing to think about is 50+ steps from the street to the villa, not a problem for us but could be for others. And a slightly eccentric wifi signal.

But did I mention the view?
