Brightwater Vacation Rentals

"Lovely warm home, great quality linens etc. The home is a wee bit tired but beautifully presented. The view down to the water across to the ranges is amazing. We sat there in the afternoons into the evening marvelling at the change of colours and light. Well set up. Even has a coffee plunger (that gets a gold star as we do love our plunger coffee). Thank you to the hosts."

"A lovely place to stay, quiet, private and comfortable. Thank you Daphna."

"We had a fabulous time at this unit. It had everything we needed to make it feel like home. Would definitely recommend this place."

"Had every thing we needed Great to come back from golf relax and great kitchen for our evening meal together Would highly recommend"

"Very nice stay, not quite enough sheets for all the beds but we made do. Something up with the light in the upstairs bathroom - was flickering. But otherwise enjoyable stay and would visit again"

"Great house for a family stay - very clean, very well laid-out, and very well appointed."

"Very spacious property in great location. Handy to town and beach with massive backyard fully fenced for dogs. Plenty of local produce in the garden as well."

"We absolutely loved our stay in Redwood Valley. The property exceeded our already high expectations and the owners did everything possible to make it an incredible stay. The place was spotless with lots of welcoming touches. With avid readers in the family the well stocked bookshelves were such a bonus. Couldn’t recommend it higher"

"We started here with extended family and had heaps of space. Amazing view from the balcony over Nelson harbour. Great kitchen, BBQ and lovely wide deck to sit outside on a summer evening. It's a steep walk up from central Nelson but worth it when you get to the top! We used the spa pool a lot and appreciated the regular services. The house is newly renovated, light, airy and well maintained, would recommend as a great place to stay."

"The property could do with a lot of trimming back of the mature trees to allow more sun in but I imagine in mid summer it’s very pleasant. Once the gardeners had cleaned up the section it looked a lot better. The house was very comfortable with a great shower and we lit the efficient fire on the particularly cold night."

"Our family had a most relaxing and enjoyable stay at the Ansarli Villa. The property and grounds were immaculate, and we had nothing to do except unpack and relax. The location was ideal, private, but reasonably close to amenities and services. Despite thinking we would spend some time exploring the local area, in the end we spent pretty much the whole time on the property as it had absolutely everything we could want there. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again if...

"Nelson is a wonderful community, and this property is ideally located -- close to downtown, grocery stores, and nearby hiking. Shared bike/ped paths were also nearby for quick access. The unit has a couple of bicycles, and we used these as our primary in-town transportation. The kitchen is well equipped with a good complement of appliances. The garden is a quiet haven with lots of flowers, herbs, and fruit trees. This place is a great find!"

"Unit was as advertised, clean and tidy, good cell phone reception. Quiet. Great views."

"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."

"Great hosts, really helpful. Fabulous setting in the country. "

"We enjoyed out stay, plenty of space and a well stocked kitchen."

"The property was very comfortable and generally met our needs. The shower was a little cramped and shower head kept flipping down. We weren't able to tighten the fitting. The narrow drive and tight turning circle into carport necessitated backing in or out for larger vehicle."

"Nelson City Centre on the River is a splendid bach accommodation. There's lots of room for a large family or two families on holiday together. The bach is very comfortable, with all the amenities one would want to have in a holiday home. And the location is fabulous. The river walk is just outside the front door, and the city centre is a short walk away. We highly recommend this accommodation."

"Lovely home, amazing property and spectacular views. Great communication with the owner. Would highly recommend staying here."

"I liked the service, the amenities in my room, bed was super comfortable, warmth and welcoming. I actually felt very relaxed which is what I needed and hoped to achieve."

"Easy checkin and good location "

"Very pleased with the cleanliness of the room and the size."
