Best views no matter whatnthe weather. As a couple we traveled NZ in a camper van around the South for a couple of weeks picking the eyes out of where we slept in linen as opposed to the sleeping bag. That said we are experienced travellers who more often seek out and appreciate comfort and finery. Arriving at Wheelhouse we... More

We visit at least once a year (from Sunshine Coast Qld). Over the years we've stayed in the Captain's Quarters, the Charthouse and, our favourite, Crow's Nest. The views are wonderful, the peace and comfort are great, and there is so much to do in and around Nelson when you're not relaxing! Can't recommend the Wheelhouse too highly........ Val and... More

This is a great place to stay for a few days. It has a laid back feel and the owners have payed alot of attention to giving the Wheelhouse a special and well executed "boathouse" theme. The living and bedroom areas are spacious, suitable for both couples and small families. The views from the lounge and bedroom can only be... More

Stayed here for 2 nights. 1 night in the main deck and 1 night in the upper deck. Service: Due to mistakes in the booking, we had to change rooms in our 2 days stay. However, the hosts offered to help us shift our stuffs down while we are out sightseeing. We didn't manage to see them when we came... More

On arrival, the first thing that hits you is the view. From the living space and the bedroom, the view is simply awesome. What we loved was the fact that it also had a fully functioning kitchen - we were able to have a roast meal, something that we struggle with (especially the meat quality) in Singapore. We only wish... More

We stayed in the Wheelhouse for two nights. The views are just as magnificent as the pictures on their website. We found the unit neat, and everything we needed was there. Due to its location high up on the hill in order to overlook the ocean, the unit is on three levels, and the stairs to the top level (bedroom)... More

We would like to go back and stay for a week. Ralph (the owner) was extremely friendly and loaned us his bike to use. Even though we had one wet, miserable day and we were unable to visit the Abel Tasman NP there was plenty to do and staying in was pleasurable! The only minor negative was that we had... More

The Wheelhouse exceeded our expectations. The property is located high on the hill with fantastic views. It is close to some good restaurants on water and is only a very short drive to town. We loved it and so did the kids. We will definitely stay there again.

After getting over the irks of booking online for the nights we saw available and confirming with the owners or booking gotta say yeah pretty good. Booked the upper deck room. So full kitchen, two bedrooms laundry free wifi and then a view that gives you a full sight of the bay out to the heads from both the bedroom... More
