Fun Time On The Rocks
We really enjoyed our stay at this vacation home while in Nelson--spacious place, well-appointed features, easy parking, convenience to dinner restaurants, beautiful view! It was our favorite property out of all our stops in New Zealand. Definitely would choose it again!

Lovely spot!
We had a delightful time at On the Rocks!
The house was well equipped and the lay out was perfect for two couples. The location and views were great, we enjoyed the sunny deck and even did yoga out there. Early morning walks on the Quay for coffee and lovely restaurants just down the street. Played golf close into town and visited wineries near Maupua.

3 night stay in Nelson
When we arrived the trash in kitchen was not cleaned but immediately the property manager sent someone over to clean! And he stopped by to follow up.
Great place to stay near the water. Nice walk along the road to beach.

Central location
Great location close to town with lovely water views. We enjoyed the warmth of the afternoon sun on the chilly day of our arrival. The heat pump and electric blanket was very welcome! House is roomy enough for 2 couples to have their own space as well as enjoy the outdoor decking area overlooking the water. Kitchen well equipped for our needs.

On The Rocks Really Rocks
This property is absolutely amazing. From the location to the view it's a dream come true. We were in Nelson to celebrate the family Patriarch's 90th birthday. We had 2 adult children and a partner staying with us and the house and it's layout was superb.
We cooked together, used the grill and read on the patio all the while enjoying the amazing view.
If you're lucky enough to find this property available, grab it. You will not be disappointed.
