Independent in Ligar Bay

"Totara Avenue is a special place and the Library is one of our favourite places to stay there. The record collection is just one of the pleasures to discover. Highly recommended!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay at the property. It was very well equipped, spacious, peaceful and quiet."

"Amazing spot with views of sea. The pool spa and sauna were perfect for easing aching bodies. Staff were super friendly and helpful with tips for hikes. Buffet breakfast was a great way to start the day"

"Tidy cottage. Showing age and has partial do ups. Curtains needed more hooks as barely hanging. Cutlery draw needs cleaning and improved. No TV but excellent wifi. Shower has excellent water flow but no hair shampoo. "

"Lovely place to stay. No problems at all."

"We had a wonderful stay here and would absolutely recommend it. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the property is very comfortable with far more amenities than you’d expect for a small hotel. Everything is well run and thoughtfully organized. The location is excellent—just a short walk to the water taxis for exploring Abel Tasman National Park, which made our trips very easy. The only minor thing we noticed was that the kitchenette in our room was quite small with limited storage space. However, the large communal kitchen was fantastic and made cooking easy. Overall, a great place to stay and a perfect base for exploring the area."

"We really enjoyed our stay. The photos and description were right on. The beach is a short walk away, and it's a beautiful beach! The town is also in walking distance, and water taxi services are easy to access. "

"Clean cabin with nice ocean view. Great huge kitchen that guests can share which had plenty of refrigeration, stoves, sinks, counters and pots and pans for you to use to cook your meal. Fresh eggs available from their chickens. Next to Abel Tasman trail entrance and vast beach. "

"Amazing beach top chalet, fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Really quiet and peaceful. Fantastic few days and I am really sorry to be leaving this beautiful place"
