It's a fantastic place to stay. We spent two nights out of our five-day tour. The rooms, meals, and service were all exceptional.

I stayed at a charming lodge for one night during the Wilsons Abel Tasman 3-day guided walk and kayak tour. Although I enjoyed the lodge, I found the location to be less appealing compared to Awaroa Beach/Meadowbank Homestead. The lodge was incredibly cozy and the bathrooms were updated.

This beach is a fantastic place to stay while you explore the breathtaking Able Tasman National Park. The rooms are extremely comfortable and spotless. After a day of walking or kayaking, the hot shower is a wonderful treat. The meals served here are top-notch, with a limited selection, but they are more than willing to accommodate dietary needs and preferences. Additionally, the outdoor seating area offers stunning views of the bay.
