We loved our stay at Ellie’s place. It had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. There were lots of space, indoors and outdoors, for our big family to hang out and enjoy the stunning views on offer. The location is unbeatable - walking distance to Kaiteriteri main beach/town centre and Little Kaiteriteri, whilst being in our own private little oasis. Ellie is a lovely host - friendly and responsive, and flexible with check-in. Would highly recommend her house to everyone!

We spent a delightful 3 nights in Kaiteriteri, perfectly positioned on the point between Little Kaitereri and Big Kaitereri. The location is ideal for easy walks to either beach along the scenic track.Ellie, our host, was incredibly attentive and genuinely sweet. She went above and beyond, leaving thoughtful touches like chocolates, wine, and fresh milk in the fridge.The cabin itself was beautiful and well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Our kids enjoyed the games and had a blast playing outside in the sunshine.We highly recommend Ellie and are immensely grateful for sharing her incredible home with us. We’ll definitely be back for a longer stay next time.

Beautiful views, character building

The character of the building is interesting, the setting is amazing, great privacy while still being close, access to the beaches is well formed steep track so great if you are able. Access to the house requires use of steps and there are some accessibility challenges. There is everything you could want to enjoy your stay.

Kaiteriteri gem

Perched on a hill above Kaiteriteri beach with gorgeous views, this home is a wonderful, peaceful place to stay while visiting Abel Tasman Natl Park. Ellie couldn't have been more kind and helpful, and we appreciated the thoughtful gifts she left to welcome us. Her home reflects the love with which it was built and decorated. We took great hikes right from the house, spent a delightful rainy day just relaxing at home and enjoying the views, and loved our day exploring Abel Tasman Park by water taxi and on foot. We spent three nights at "Heart of Kaiteriteri" and would have loved to stay longer. Ellie and her home will hold a special place in our memories of New Zealand.

A perch in paradise

Though the photos in the listing are impressive, they can't possibly represent how spectacular, private and convenient this gem of a cabin is. From the time we arrived, greeted by Ellie we loved this place and can't wait to return. It is quaint and cozy and with Ellie's encouragement and advice about the neighbourhood we immediately felt at home.
