    “The location and view were great but the property has clearly not been maintained in the years since the photos on the listing were taken.”

    The house has multiple areas in need of repair with holes and rotting wood, the backyard is overgrown and there is no grass area available to use, there is also broken furniture. You also should take reef shoes if you are wanting to get in the water as the access area is covered in mussels/oysters and be prepared for a steep walk down to the water, not somewhere you can easily swim from.

Tucked up on the hill in amongst lush native surroundings, you'll have the picturesque backdrop that is Moetapu Bay and in the background the native birdsong to soothe the soul.

Aquamarine Dreams will have you feeling like you have your very own beach. Sleeping up to 5 guests in 3 bedrooms, this holiday home has plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy their Moetapu Bay holiday just the way they like. Fire up the BBQ and make the most of those warm summer nights and dine al fresco, while you overlook the stunning waters of Moetapu Bay. If its a Winter stay your planning, there is a fireplace ready to keep you toasty warm and plenty of wood supplies. Moetapu Bay is an excellent base to explore the Marlborough Sounds. Head out on the water for some dolphin spotting near the Perlous Sounds, tackle the stunning Queen Charlotte track or simply take in the magical views from the shore over a nice picnic. Make this holiday one to remember - Aquamarine Dreams awaits!

Please be aware that the shared driveway at the side of the house is steep. All cars must be parked either in the garage or at the side of the garage, to avoid blocking the driveway.

There are life-jackets available to use with the 2 twin kayaks and 2 stand up paddle boards but we do recommend that guests bring their own well-fitting life-jackets to ensure safety.

As the property has unfenced access to the beach, adults should closely supervise young children while outside to ensure they are safe around water.

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
