Everything about our visit was straightforward and we really appreciated the late checkout (on request) The Bach owners were very welcoming and the house itself was warm and comfortable. We were grateful for kindling and firewood already by the fire. We loved the comfortable beds, lots of blankets and all the games. Thank you , we will be back.

Great toys!

Both my husband and I and our 2 kids (10 and 13) enjoyed the ping pong table, kayaks, paddle board! Also, the CD movie selection is great as are the board games. You can also walk to Molly’s pub for great drinks and music! Property manager Grant was readily available and very accommodating.

Excellent home at the beach

We had a great stay in the well equipped Poharadise, the location was perfect, across the road from the beach and a short walk to shops and bars. The house had everything we needed, only wish we stayed longer. It was great being able to bring the dog, he loved his morning walks on the beach.The kayaks were a hit, we had a beautiful day paddling to the islands off Tata beach with its beautiful golden sands, stunning.

We love golden bay, but can never find anywhere decent to stay that allows a dog. I am so pleased to have found this place. We live just over in Nelson, and would come back again and again. Comfortable with everything you need, perfect location, clean, big yards and lots of extras to enjoy.

Poharadise was a good name for this place

The house was lovely, beautifully decorated, warm, and had everything we needed. It was a quick walk to the beach. The property owners were very helpful and welcoming. If possible, it might be good to give people until 11am or midday to leave mimid1leave

Poharadise - fabulous accommodation for a weekend away

Great location with the beach over the road, Takaka 10 mins away plus all the adventures the Golden Bay has to offer. Classic kiwiana style holiday home, sunny and well heated with all the bells and whistles, dog friendly with a big yard a huge plus. Had a fantastic couple of night's stay, would definitely return.

Absolutely fantastic place to stay, hard to fault anything. A great mix between modern and kiwi bach with loads of room, a beautiful warm house with a great logburner, amazing outdoor spaces with a huge garage that has entertainment for all, table tennis, darts, bikes, paddle boards. Close to village centre and beach. Very highly recommended
