About this property

Beautiful, spacious, private and sooo relaxing

Beautiful Ngakuta Bay is set in the prime area of Queen Charlotte Sound.
It is a 15 minute drive to Picton or to the start of The Queen Charlotte track and 30 minutes to Marlborough's wineries.

Our picturesque bay has a large grass reserve to lovely safe swimming beach,a good boat ramp, a new jetty and ski lane. The bay has an excellent mountain biking /walking track that has spectacular views of Queen Charlotte sound and in our opinion views equal to anything seen on the Queen Charlotte track.
This area is a kayaking /boating paradise and has won NZ tourism wards and international recognition for its scenic beauty for both summer and winter.

Our large architect designed holiday home sleeps 13 and is situated in main Ngakuta Bay where the sandy beaches and boat ramp are [not in Little Ngakuta Bay]. It is a sunny resort style property for both summer and winter and is only a 2 min walk to the safe sandy swimming beach.
The home is set in 1/2 an acre of private,lovely landscaped grounds with spacious flat lawns and is fully fenced.
The four living areas (dining lounge, TV den and playroom) all open out to attractive decks at ground level and a lush courtyard BBQ area for dining.
* If you wish to bring a dog please arrange this with me.
*If you have 4 couples we can arrange 4 double rooms.
* Sky digital 40+ MULTI room including sky sports 1,2,and3 no need to fight over the choice of channels with the children.
* The playroom has a table tennis table and some childrens books .
* We have 2 kayaks with childrens and adults life jackets available for your use.
* A 14ft round trampoline provides extra fun for the kids.
* Plenty of off-street parking.
* 2 large fridge freezers for plenty of food and beverage storage.
Our lay out is flexible ,we are happy to split king-size beds if singles are needed or to put 2 singles together to create a King bed.

Stunning
Amazing home that felt like we were secluded in Tuscany. Lots of beautiful art. We had a wonderful stay as a family and wish we could’ve stayed longer. The home is a short walk from the nearby bay. We did have noisy neighbours one night so I’d recommend putting in a complaint sooner than later to the council if it happens again ;) Also note that the bay doesn’t have rubbish collection so you need to take rubbish with you.
