WOW! What an amazingly beautiful piece of paradise! We were warmly greeted by Daniel who showed us to our shoreline suite and what breath taking views of the water which is only metres away from our front door! We walked through their beautiful gardens to the heated swimming pool which was lovely and secluded. Daniel was very knowledgeable about the... More

We stayed 6 nights. We had a fantastic time. The accomodations (villas) are spread throughout the extensive property, with views across the harbour - wading birds. We had a quail family visit us each morning and evening, feeding on our lawn and only a few meters from us in our lounge. Accomodation is excellent, and the whole atmosphere is quiet... More

We ended our two week tour of the south island with four nights at Bronte and couldn't have asked for a better end to our holiday. Despite three days of rain we, with our three young children, had a wonderful time in the luxury of Te Koi. On arrival Daniel warmly welcomed us and showed us round the beautifully decorated... More

It was mazing experience to stayed at Bronte in a two bedroom self contained villa called Te Koi. Excellent service, very friendly staff. Great New Zealand hospitality in a wonderful setting. I highly recommend this property as we have stayed in many luxury properties in New Zealand and this was the best!! More

I don't often comment in public forums, however I feel inspired to write this review. The sunrise over the estuary on the first morning of my stay was one of the best I've ever seen and in one of the most beautiful settings. My accommodations were truly superb. The attention to detail and service was second to none. I can... More

Loved the location (about halfway in between Nelson and the Abel Tasman National Park), loved the setting overlooking the water, and Daniel's service is second to none in New Zealand. I was staying there on business and it made for the perfect retreat away from the conference I had to attend in Nelson. Will be coming back with the wife... More

We had a wonderful lodge with a small kitcenette with fabulous views over the estuary from our bedroom window. We had a very warm welcome and were able to drive right up to the lodge. we had everything available, but the decor and fittings are a little old fashioned now but are very nice and homely. Daniel who runs the... More
