It was very cozy and a walk from the ferry which we came over on our bikes. It was an easy walk into town and the harbor. Quiet neighborhood. Having the outside patio table and umbrella and the privacy was quite special. We wished we had planned to stay longer.

The glamping tent was awesome. Secluded spot, away from the rest of the accomodation. The view was amazing!
We would definitely stay here again!

The breakfast was a lovely well prepared and appetizing combination of fresh fruit, yogurt, cereals, toast, and beverages. there’s an amazing view of the ocean from the room that is constantly changing with the weather and transitive the sun. The host were friendly, efficient and inconspicuous.
In a beautiful rural hill-top setting, this semi-detached holiday home features a garden with an outdoor pool, barbecue and stunning views of the ocean and mountains of Nelson Bay.

Amazing place to stay. It has everything you need, from a well stocked kitchen, clothes airer, kids toys. It's makes stying there so easy and relaxing, especially if you have kids, they always love someone else's toys! Gina the host is amazing, very accommodating and helpful, especially as each year we have stayed we have left kids togs etc behind! The accomodation itself it lovely, great peaceful location, beautiful surroundings.
A great spot away from the hustle of the city. The apartments are right next to the Wharfside shops and eateries ( highly recommend the fish and chip shop for yummy fresh gurnard meal - much cheaper than the restaurants.) Convenience store not far away. Would definitely come back again.

I have stayed in Mapua many times while holidaying in the region. Its a perfect spot if you don't want to be in the more metropolitan Nelson/Richmond areas but still have all the facilities at hand that you want on a holiday - restaurants, cafes, shops, pub, supermarket, petrol etc etc while still only being half an hour away from Nelson etc

We've been to Mapua before.
We've been to Mapua before. It's off the beaten track to an extent but still has all the facilities you might want. It gets quite busy with tourists, both domestic and overseas, in summer. However, by the end of April this year it was just right with no problems getting a table at any of the restaurants yet they weren't dead either. Cyclists/walkers be aware that the Mapua Ferry winter timetable (weekends and school hols only) cuts in on the first week in May. We intended cycling in to Richmond but were scuppered by the lack of a ferry crossing.
Terra Nostra Cottage is a lovely one bedroom cottage nestled in the back of a property in Māpua within a few hundred meters of the wharf area. The cottage is secluded, quiet and a lovely place to stay. The hosts were very friendly, respectful and kind. There is lots of space, a private outdoor area and it is very comfortable. We enjoyed the dolce gusto coffee maker very much. The Four Square is about 5-7 minutes walk. It could not have been better.
Very clean, modern, comfortable and spacious unit, within easy walking distance to Mapua Wharf, and also other local facilities (4 SQ, excellent cafe/bakery, and Sprig & Fern pub (highly recommended!)). Ability to park right outside the property and being allowed to use the power in the garage to charge the car was a bonus! Didn't get to use the outside BBQ or deck this time. Hope to stay again (if there's availability!) when next in Mapua.
This place is a little slice of heaven. Chrissie and John were the best hosts. The view from the room was beautiful. Fresh fruit was growing outside in the garden. The room was spacious and very comfortable. The breakfast was yummy. Very close to wharf and restaurants. We will definitely come back again to explore the wineries.
So cool that the host was from Gravesend, Kent. Small world!
Thank you! Richard & Michelle
Wonderful unit, clean, comfortable with a nice outdoor seating area to relax and enjoy the gardens. The host Nicky is great, and provided a picnic basket full of breakfast items outside our door/patio in the morning. Highly recommend. While you are in Mapua, a short ride to the small scenic harbor will lead you to some good restaurants. We ate at the Apple Shed, it was also very good. Good NZ wine list.
First class accommodation. Very well presented and some thoughtful extras like TWO suitcase stands. I was by myself but I am used to travelling with my wife and we have a suitcase each, so two stands is brilliant. There were very nice fixings for breakfast and it was only 5 minutes walk to the wharf.
Lovely hosts, breakfast cooked to order with fresh fruit and locally made spreads/jams. Nice to chat with other guests and share tips regarding the area. Spa is a treat after a day out exploring the Tasman. Mapua was vibrant with lots of choice of eateries.
Location is terrific and within easy walking distance to the wharf, coffee shops, restaurants and a supermarket. Owners were friendly and easy to communicate with. Apartment was lovely and lots of info handily supplied via a nice notebook.
Well-appointed and comfortable cottage with garden full of character and in great location for Mapua Wharf. Also convenient for accessing Abel Tasman park and other areas of interest locally. Responsive and friendly host.
Kathy’s Mapua Studio is stylish and comfortable. She has thought of everything to make your stay peaceful and relaxed. We loved the wood-fire plus ample supply of wood and the lovely linens on the super comfy bed.
Location was excellent being so close to the wharf. Unit was comfortable with new bathroom. Porch outside was a lovely place to eat or enjoy the outdoors. Very comfortable bed. Friendly hosts. Wifi appreciated.
Amazing property, spacious room, and a superb breakfast each morning. Having a spa after riding our bikes was a bonus.
Thanks Lynne and Peter for the 4 days in Mapua Hills BnB. Very helpful and friendly!!
Being met on arrival and having the unit aired and ready for us was loverly and unexpected. The location was fantastic and the amenities and shops in the village of Mapua were just amazing.
