Our Tariffs Exceptional - amongst the best in New Zealand
  • Click the following link Tariff calculator to get an exact tariff for the time you wish to stay at "Adrift In Golden Bay"

    VALUE FOR MONEY
  • Our aim is to provide value for your money. We are able to do this, we hope, because:-
    1. Almost all of our bookings are made directly with us and because of this we have not included agents commission when setting our rates.
    2. We purchased this, our family property, more than 24 years ago when land prices were much lower.
    3. Over time we hope to eliminate expenses that do nothing to "add value" to to your experience but rather spend money on continuing to develop our beachfront retreat as a place which will bring relaxation, enjoyment and leave nothing but happy memories.
    4. Adrift In Golden Bay is run almost entirely by members of our extended family (or "whanau" as it is known in Maori) who all aim to bring you the very best in personal service and most importantly, we enjoy what we do!
  • Our reasonable rack rates (compared to similar standard accommodation) and our low-season discount (more than 50%) led to a recent article published in the travel section of The Guardian Newspaper, a large British newspaper, this travel article lists us as one of the Top 10 affordable pads in New Zealand.

    QUALITY

  • Our past guests have rated us highly amongst all the Nelson Hotels on the TripAdvisor Forum- the world's largest travel forum and the many comments in the guest books in each unit confirms this.

We are a family run business and as such like to spend time together on Christmas Day (our one day off in the middle of our busy season). Please also note that travelling in New Zealand on Christmas Day is more difficult; almost all cafes and even most supermarkets and petrol stations are closed on Christmas Day!

  • We reserve the right to increase or decrease future prices from those originally posted but the price charged will always be the one given at the time of your booking.
