we've been staying in backpackers lodges for the last couple weeks and wanted a place that was a little nicer but not really expensive. this was perfect. just barely more than a backpacker lodge but much, much nicer. private accommodations; free wifi; awesome staff; beautiful views; very nice bathroom/shower/balcony. this was the best deal on accommodation we've had in NZ....

We chose Ocean View Chalets from reading the Trip Advisor reviews and we were not disappointed. The cabin was compact and clean, with a lovely view towards the sea from the deck. Peaceful place within walking distance of the park entrance. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Good buffet breakfast and bought packed lunches for the next day which... More

Wonderful, clean and well equiped chalet with stunning views. Built on to a hillside, the chalet was not overlooked, so felt very secluded. Ideal situation for walkers at the edge of the National Park and for stunning beaches. Very helpful and friendly staff. Look forward to returning. More

We loved this place--so close to the park, quiet and peaceful. Good kitchen and close to all the activities of the Abel Tasman. More

Ocean View Chalets is absolutely lovely ~ one of my favorite places to stay during our entire journey in both the north and south islands of New Zealand. Robert and team were exceptionally attentive to us as their "guests" ~ from making our water taxi reservations, escorting us to our chalet, and placing the cute little jug of milk in... More

The chalets are well planned so as to not overlook anyone else. They are set amongst trees on a hillside with superb views of the bay. Everything inside was very... More

We were given a warm welcome by Robert on our arrival and taken to our lovely one- bedroomed cabin. Everything was spotlessly clean and the cabin was excellently appointed. It had that lovely warm 'woody' smell and was set into the surrounding bush with glorious views towards the Tasman Sea. We ate breakfast in the main room in the Reception... More

Initially booked in for the cheapest room (the one connected to the reception) but luckily we were able to up grade to one of the cabins. This had a great sea view and a lot more space including a kitchen, bigger bathroom and a nice balcony. This isn't a luxury place but it has everything you need and is well... More

Stayed here for 2 nights, and it was great! Lovely setting, with the cabins on stilts providing a great view across some farmland with the sea in the distance. The start of the Abel Tasman trail is a 5 min walk away, so it's a quick walk into the park. Room had a fridge and microwave, and there was free... More
