The property is both beautiful and rugged. I didn’t know all the details before I arrived, but was really happy to leave my car down the trail, hike up to my cabin with what I needed, and enjoy the peace, and the beautiful view. It’s like “glamping,” as there’s no TV or WiFi, but the bathroom and shower are clean and great, the little ea station is fully stocked, and there’s everything you’d need or want to enjoy the time there.

I had my heart set on Joya Garden cottage the moment I saw it, and it did not disappoint. Everything about it was picture-perfect; Paulina decorated the place beautifully; it had everything we needed and more. The location was secluded yet within walking distance from the town centre. Paulina was a wonderful host and made us feel at home; we would definitely book again should we ever come to Nelson. Thank you

Our stay here was exceptional. The space was perfectly sized and the bathroom/laundry facilities were great. Above all our hosts were so communicative and flexible with everything. Steven's suggestions and taking the time to show us around the local area made our stay all the more lovely and memorable! Thanks so much again Steven!!

Spotlessly clean, very comfortable bed, nice big shower, quiet and peaceful in a beautiful heritage area of Nelson. Everything I needed was in the room , good sized fridge, big mugs , plates ,glasses , everything you could need. Even an umbrella. Very friendly hosts who went out of their way to help me during an unexpected stay in the hospital.

We didn't use the breakfast provided, as we brought our own. We did eat the fresh fruit though. The berries were delicious. :-) And it was soo quiet!

Fabulous views. Very quiet. Well equipped. Friendly and helpful hosts, happy to chat but also to respect one’s privacy. Easy to get to anywhere with your own wheels, whether in town or outside. Some very good restaurants within easy reach.
