Location, Location, Location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Nelson at Alan’s property. Communication with Alan was a breeze along with check-in and check-out. The house was as advertised, well stocked and clean. The location was amazing, as you could be walking along the Maitai, wandering the Queen’s Gardens or brunching downtown in a matter of minutes. We will definitely be booking Alan’s property on our next visit.

Short walk to downtown and grocery stores. Close to the Maitai River and Queens Gardens. House was equipped with essentials- staples and laundry. We had five people staying at the house and we were very comfortable. Thank you!

Great location and a lemon tree!
House was a great location for seeing Nelson and the surrounding area. Alan was friendly and extremely helpful (confirmed we'd be able to view the World Cup final!). We even got to have some delicious lemons from the tree in the yard.
