Right from the first communication Alan has been extremely welcoming. The flexibility to arrival and departure time was very welcome especially as the weather was not Nelson's reputed sunny days.
We would definitely stay again.

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.

Our favourite place to stay in Nelson
This was our 2nd time staying here and once again it didn’t disappoint. Fully stocked with everything you need for a home away from home feel - which is important when traveling with kids! Spacious, comfy beds, great couch (and lots of extra seating), 2 bathrooms and extremely clean. Alan was great as usual and even came over in super speed when we locked the keys inside! 10/10 - we will be back 🙂
