Independent in Cape Jackson from NZ$135

"Travelling in winter, do not get there late in the day. Despite being a port, nothing was open for groceries or dinner when we arrived. "

"A lovely spacious home comfortable and warm. No cupboard storage for our own food was a slight problem. Handy to walks and the Picton shops. I would recommend this accommodation for any large family gathering. Unusual that there was no aerial for normal TV reception. A great selection of DVD's that were watched instead."

"The motel was in a gorgeous location, with views of the bay out front. The rooms were so comfortable and clean, it felt like home away from home. Our host, Tomoko, was also very kind and friendly. Thank you for a lovely stay!"

"Lovely property in the Marlborough Sounds, the views were exceptional with friendly and helpful staff."

"Beautiful surroundings, friendly staff, lovely clean cabins. "

"We had a wonderful stay in the sounds. Jason and Cheryl were great with communicating and accommodating our needs. Their home was spacious, warm and clean and there were plenty of nearby activities to keep us busy, such as fishing, hiking and canoeing. We would love to stay again and bring our boat on the next trip. Many thanks, Courtney & James "

"We stayed here with our extended family over a long weekend. The views from the bach were the main reason why we booked and they did not disappoint. The cleanliness of the Bach was not great on arrival, it was clear that only a surface level clean had been done for some time. The bunk bed is very squeaky, which didn’t help when trying to get the kids to sleep. Good location with only a short walk to the jetty and waterfront. "

"Nice quiet little cottage, easy to plenty of fishing places and close to boat ramp and pub for lunch. A very friendly weka came to say hi most days and followed to hang washing out. Highly recommend "

"Greeted by Bill and given the tour of our room and the lounge area we could access exclusively. Guided to a range of dining options in Picton, which was appreciated. The room was spacious, with a view over their abundant garden. Separate kitchenette area off the bedroom. Goodies included delicious grapes, plunger coffee and a good selection of teas. Lots of interesting little items throughout the room. Super comfortable bed, good quality linen. Large bathroom space. We were very tired after a long day of driving so retired early."
