I highly recommend staying here; it's close enough to all the actitivies you want to do in Abel Tasman National Park if you have a car, but remote enough that you are in a beautiful, peaceful and serene spot in nature on the Ruby Coast. All of Alan's recommendations for local activities were top-notch. The cottage is tastefully (and comfortably!) appointed. This was my most favorite spot during 2.5 weeks in New Zealand.
