    Very friendly and helpful owners offering a good location for accessing Abel Tasman Park. Really enjoyed the gardens/orchards and our accommodation was well designed, peaceful and gave us privacy.

    The chalet was perfect for us. It had all the facilities we could wish for and was warm and comfortable. Jane and John were fantastic hosts. They allowed us to use their 'greenhouse' to dry our laundry. The location is quiet rural, but attractions...

    Beautiful country location with great views. Private, surrounded by fruit trees and birdlife. Hosts, John & Jane, were close by if needed and very helpful. Close to Motueka, Abel Tasman Park and Keiteriteri.

    Quiet, peaceful, beautiful views and the shower was amazing. The owners went above and beyond getting wine and chocolate sorted for my mother’s stay. She said it was the best weekend ever.

    An amazing place. Jane and John were the perfect hosts. A quiet retreat but an excellent place from which to explore Abel Tasman.

    A comfortable place to stay, with everything we could ask for, in a good location out of Motueka with great views over the orchards and handy for getting to Kaiteriteri for the Abel Tasman national park. Lovely hosts.

Our Chalets are our slice of paradise- tucked away on the hill allowing peace and quiet; whilst also being close enough to access all the Abel Tasman has to offer. With views of the Riwaka Valley, Takaka Hill, the ocean and many vineyards and orchards, our Chalets have something for everyone. Each Chalet is set apart to give a feeling of being in your own space, and guests can walk in the gardens, enjoy a BBQ, sit at the picnic table and enjoy a glass of wine and children can play on the surrounding lawns.
We're Jane & John- proud owners of Terraced Chalets. After having grown up in Motueka and spending countless holidays in Nelson and Golden Bay over the past 30 years, we've moved up from Christchurch to this little slice of paradise, with our dog Izzy in tow. We absolutely love the Tasman area, and want to share it with everyone. Because we have spent so much time around here (and now live amongst it), we know the best places to walk, sight-see, eat, shop and relax. We would love for you to come and stay with us so we can show you some of the best places New Zealand has to offer. Jane, John and Izzy
Welcome to Riwaka! The location of our Chalets means you can get the best of both worlds. It is a quiet and peaceful place to relax, but is also close to some of the best places this region has to offer. Kaiteriteri Beach and the Abel Tasman National Park are just a 15 minute drive away, and the Riwaka township has a petrol station, cafes, craft beer tastings, pie shops and fresh fruit ice-creams, and the famous Riwaka Pub all just 5 minutes down the road. Motueka township is a 10 minute drive away; providing supermarkets, shops, eateries and pubs as well.
