About this property

Secure Private Holiday Haven

This sun drenched beautiful private home is in a calibra all of it's own. Suitable for families, couples and pets as it has a large fully enclosed private backyard. This home is close to everything you need to see and do in the gorgeous Tahunanui Beach area. Also the back beach for exercising the dog or the kids.
The calm swimming beach is walking distance. The choice of cafes and restaurants close by. 10 km to the CBD. Plenty to do for both young to old. Nelson is at your door step.
The children will love our own Natureland zoo, mini golf, and the bumper boats. Grab a fishing rod and fish off the beach. The world known Wow museum is a short 2 minute drive as is the airport. This property is located central to everything in the area.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
