Anakiwa House | Marlborough Sounds relaxation with great views: close to Queen Charlotte walkway

3 Bedroom House in Anakiwa

Our holiday bach has proven to be a wonderful base to explore the magnificent Marlborough Sound and Queen Charlotte Walk Way, to charge the personal batteries and deepen relationships.
Guests from Wellington took the water taxi to the Tirimoana jetty straight off the ferry.
Friends used it to improve fitness and successfully competed in the Ironman in Taupo. ( by swimming between the Anakiwa jetty and Tirimoana jetty: about 45 minutes, cycling to Portage and back: 2h 50min, and running to Davies Bay: about 40min, and half way point: 1h.10min,)
The BBQ has been used by some well known New Zealanders to cook up gastronomic feasts.
The kayaks have been used to pick some mussels and explore the Sounds
Native pigeons, wax-eyes, robins, fantails, weka's, Tui's and bell birds entertain the eyes against the fern tree clad background.
The sound of the gentle running creek ensures restful sleeps.
Arriving will be easy, Leaving very hard.
The main house has 2 bedrooms: the master bedroom and a single bedroom with a bunk bed. The beds are standard 80cm wide, which some people feel is narrow

Summary: We had a lovely peaceful and relaxing stay. A very private bach with beautiful views of the sounds and surrounding native bush. We awoke to beautiful native birdsong each morning. We felt completely recharged at the end of the week and very much hope to return.

Summary: We relaxed straight away. Loved the view, the bird life, the bush and exploring the stream at the bottom of the garden. Easy access to the queen charlotte track and the wharf to jump off were also great.

Summary: This bach is located in a beautiful setting up a hill, surrounded by native bush & with a view out over the sound. The deck is perfect for sunbathing or breakfast outside in the morning.. after waking up to the birds singing & the sun beaming in from the east. We had fun paddling around the bay & walking down the track for a swim. If you’re looking for somewhere to totally relax but still have a few things to do during the day, this is great!

Summary: This is a true home from home batch. Native birds a plenty to listen out for and close to a good stretch of the Queen Charlotte track. Highly recommended if you truly want to escape the 'rat race' for a while.

Summary: We’ve rented a few Sounds places over the years but this was our favourite. A fantastic wee bach. Great views of both the bush and the water. Warm and cosy space. Lovely gardens. The kids had a ball exploring the path down to the stream. Property is on the hill but our toddlers were fine with the walk to/from the beach. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
