Nelson/Golden Bay

Moonraker House sits tall in the tree canopy over looking the iconic Split Apple Rock at the cusp of the Abel Tasman, close to the Nelson lakes and Kahurangi National parks. This purpose built luxury brand new accommodation is designed for up to 6 over night guests. We are delighted to welcome families and corporate groups but with our sister business The Dream Maker, we are also set-up to provide a complete elopement/weddingmoon package. Moonraker House has three gorgeous en-suite bedrooms, with deck access and views over looking Split Apple Rock which is approximately 100 yds from the house base, and beyond across to the Nelson, Richmond and Kaikoura ranges. The Superior room, Eve, is setup for romance with a stunning bath designed for two and separate shower. Both other bathrooms have beautiful showers. Our two other rooms, Jazz and Gala, all named after our local apples have options for king size or twin single beds at the guests request. The stunning and specious kitchen has been built to commercial standards with entertainment in mind. Included are double oven and convection hobs, large 1.1/2 sink, dishwasher, ceiling fan, microwave oven, large double fridge, with ice maker and stacks of storage. The open sitting room / dining area has a full bi-folding opening with access to the lavish deck which fully surrounds the house to follow the full day sunshine. Our full laundry consists of both 8.5 kg washing machine and dryer. There is a drying rack to capture the natural kanuka air. A sleep out is also available (conditions apply) for families or guests bringing their own chauffeur or child minder. We can also provide both of these services. The house sits in it's own 1 hectare of native bush and is built on poles, the tallest foundation pole is 9.5 m from the ground to the underside of the house, this gives a real feeling of a tree top house while living in comfort and style. Moonraker House is set in the middle of it's own 1 hectare block with incredible birds eye views of the native trees, punga ferns and glow worms. You will enjoy visits from our resident wekas, together with the frequent bellbirds, tuis, fan tails and many more delights. The beach is child friendly, with protection from strong winds and currents. There are small caves and interesting rocks to clamber with ideal beach fishing opportunities. Depending on the tide wading access is possible to the Split Apple Rock. Charter boats access the beach so you can avoid parking problems in Kaiteriteri or Marahau.
