Pohara's Beach House

Set in Pohara in the Tasman region, Pohara's Beach House features a garden. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are available at the holiday home free of charge.

The air-conditioned holiday home consists of 1 bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen and 1 bathroom. A TV is featured. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance. 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.

Nothing we didn't like. Only thing we would do different next time would be to bring extra blankets as the bunk bedding was beautiful, but some friends got a bit cold. We did have a fire place though to keep us warm! A++++ happy with the beautiful stay!

Te Hapu Coastal Cottages

Collingwood

Situated on a 1000 acre coastal sheep and cattle farm in the remoteness of the country and next to Kahurangi National Park and Golden Bay's Tasman Sea coast, Te Hapu Coastal Cottages provides accommodation a 10-minute drive through the farm to a variety of white sand beaches, sheltered coves and blowholes. Fabulous location. The storm was long and powerful wind and driving rain. I felt comfortable and cosy watching it all from my window. I was very grateful for the bath as it wasn't walking weather despite the numerous walks available so I just relaxed instead. The electric blanket was a nice treat. 😊
