About the host

Hosted by Jason Mackie

Host profile image
I’m a New Zealander who loves the outdoors, the water and the simple pleasures of life. I’ve spent many years enjoying the Marlborough Sounds — fishing, boating, exploring the hills and making the most of this special part of New Zealand.
I love sharing our place with guests who appreciate getting away from the hustle and bustle and experiencing the Sounds at their own pace. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, fish, enjoy the views or simply sit on the deck with a drink and watch the world go by, I hope you feel at home while you’re here.
I take pride in looking after the property and making sure guests have a comfortable, well-equipped base from which to enjoy everything the Marlborough Sounds has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Why I Chose This Area
The Marlborough Sounds is one of those places where you can slow down and properly switch off. We chose this area for its incredible combination of water, bush, mountains and wide-open space — and because there’s always something to explore.
I love being able to step outside and have the Sounds right there, whether it’s heading out on the boat, going fishing, walking the hills or simply sitting on the deck enjoying the view. It’s peaceful, remote and a world away from the usual hustle and bustle.
What I enjoy most is the freedom and variety. You can spend the day exploring the water or the bush, then come home, fire up the BBQ, pour a drink and watch the sun go down over the Sounds. It’s a pretty special place to call home.

What makes this property unique

What Makes Our Property Unique
What makes our place special is the combination of privacy, views and the genuine Marlborough Sounds experience. Set amongst the native bush with spectacular views across Kenepuru Sound to the Richmond Ranges, it feels a world away from everyday life.
This isn’t a resort — it’s a comfortable, well-equipped home where you can relax and enjoy the outdoors. There’s plenty of space to spread out, with decks overlooking the water, easy access to boating and fishing, and the hills and bush right on your doorstep.
For us, the best part is the setting. You can spend the day out exploring, come back to the house, fire up the BBQ and sit on the deck watching the boats go by. It’s the kind of place where you naturally slow down, reconnect and enjoy being somewhere properly remote.
