Amazing views, stylish and comfortable. While a small space, it had everything needed and more. I was impressed with the kitchenware which was well-supplied and thought out for use in a small space. There was an inflatable paddle board which is great to take out on a calm morning and watch the dawn from the water. Short walking distance to several restaurants. The host was responsive. I wouldn’t hesitate to come back and stay longer.

The town is simple and clean, I came for a spiritual class and it's on a retreat centre up the mountain .. might be it's now getting into winter , there's not a lot of tourists around and make it easy to drive around and visit places.. the weather was good ( not windy so it's good to hv a walk on the beach in the late afternoon..

A great place to stay.
A great place to stay. Lovely safe beach for walking and swimming. Wainui falls and labyrinth rocks not far away. About 20 minutes to Tākaka for a browse through really interesting shops and 40 minutes to Collingwood for the farewell spit tour. Nothing disappointed.

Molly’s restaurant was ideally sited with an excellent menu for both adults/children. Staff were lovely and friendly. We visited Wharariki Beach which was a beautiful area featuring the Archway Islands and also nearby Tata Beach - popped into Takaka a few times to visit the local market and various cafes - would definitely visit Pohara again.

Everything we needed within walking distance, inhouse bar and restaurant were amazing. Spa pool and swimming pool were very clean. It felt like a resort. Easy drive to many local attractions, kayaking, walks, distillery, art studios. Staff were so friendly and professional. Food was top class - we dined there all 3 nights. We could choose from the entire menu for our "Breakfast Included" deal (which was extensive). Bathroom was well appointed with large shower, bathrobes, toiletries, hairdryer and loads of linen. Beds were sooooo comfortable.

We could have stayed longer but our accommodation was really bad so it tainted our experience of Pohara a bit.
But... the locals seem real nice, location is great, close to Takaka and surrounded by amazing natural beauty.
The accommodation was fine, beds comfortable and the TVetc all worked well. There are clearly some issues of repair that need to be done I.e. large cracks on the walls and areas of ceiling sag which show age and historical damage. It is single glazed and does get a lot of condensation (we stayed in mid October so that isn't unexpected) so a dehumidifier is not a bad plan if you plan to stay for a while.
Proximity to the beach, a local dairy (corner shop) and cafe/bar restaurant were great.
Amazing views, stylish and comfortable. While a small space, it had everything needed and more. I was impressed with the kitchenware which was well-supplied and thought out for use in a small space.

Filip and Sonya were fabulous hosts-very hospitable and generous with information and recommendations. The shuttle service to Abel Tasman made a day tramping in the park seamless. We enjoyed the accommodations so much we were lucky enough to be able to extend our stay by one day. Pōhara is an excellent location for visiting the Golden Bay and I can’t recommend the Bay Lodge highly enough.
The Sandcastle chalet was like a gorgeous old kiwi Bach with everything you need plus roomy and a sea view! Steve was a hospitable guy offering us to join pizza night with other guests He also agreed to a late morning check out so we could swim at the nearby beach before breakfast. It was a wonderful time for our 50 th wedding anniversary!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. From check-in to check-out the staff were extremely warm and polite. The rooms were great and pre-heated, which was nice on a cooler day. Our experience was such that this will be our go-to accommodation in Golden Bay in the future. Thank you, Ethan and all your staff for a wonderful experience.
Very comfy bed!! Shower blocks were super clean and a hairdryer was readily available. Cabin was right on the beach access. Great to have ironing board available as we were here for a wedding. Handy to have plates, cups, utensils etc in the cabin to use. Shop had pretty much everything you could need.
Great location close to beach access, local bar and Cafe, great pizza shop. Very clean. Everything in the house was in good working order despite being an older house. It was like 'house sitting" for a friend - firewood chopped, fresh linen and plenty of kitchen supplies. Made our stay easy.
The location was a great base to explore Golden Bay and was well priced compared to other accommodation at Pohara. The unit was a suitable size for the 3 of us. It is handy to the local store for that emergency purchase and Takaka for bigger grocery shops.
Local to Nelson, took advantage of a great deal, lovely lodge, will be back. Nice touches in the rooms, beautiful decor, and a lovely setting and location in general. Great breakfast, would love to have tried the evening meal.
