Welcome to this Coastal Retreat Near Nelson City
Nestled in Atawhai, just minutes from Nelson’s city centre, Bangalow Bach offers stunning views over the estuary and mountains beyond. Enjoy the best of both worlds - close to town (a 5-minute drive or a 20-minute scenic walk) yet peacefully removed from suburbia.
Set amidst subtropical gardens with a Japanese-style boardwalk, this tranquil home features a chlorine-free spa overlooking the sea and sunsets, as well as a garden seating area with a fire, BBQ, and outdoor kitchen — perfect for relaxed evenings.
Inside, you’ll find a spacious, light-filled home designed for comfort and connection. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge area make a great social hub, while the multiple living spaces allow everyone to find their own quiet corner. The house also features a quality sound system and a welcoming, bach-like vibe.
Bangalow Bach is ideal for couples and families, with separate downstairs bedrooms and their own kitchen and bathroom facilities. From here, you’re just minutes from Nelson’s beaches, markets, mountain bike park, and vibrant city life — with a convenient bike route straight into town.

• Noise in the area - All properties along the water frontage and SH6 are subject to some road & port noise.

Noise isn’t a problem for most guests, but we feel it's a courtesy to flag this with all potential bookers.

• Spa Pool use - Use of the spa is not permitted after 10pm due to local regulations & the proximity of neighbouring properties that may be affected by noise.
• Security cameras - For the general security of the property & guests, cameras surveil the parking and driveway areas.
