Moetapu Bay Bliss - Marlborough Sounds Retreat

Perfect for families or friends, this spacious five-bedroom home offers breathtaking north-facing views of the Bay, Mahau Sound, Pelorus Sound, and the Kenepuru landscape.

The upper level features a lounge with a table tennis table, a separate TV area, and a private balcony off the main bedroom with an ensuite. Downstairs, enjoy a generous living, dining, and kitchen area with a pool table and wood-burning fireplace. Step outside to the expansive veranda and soak in the tranquil surroundings.

As night falls, retreat to the cosy, well-appointed bedrooms and have a restful slumber to get you ready for another adventure-filled day!

A consented mooring for boats up to 10 meters makes for effortless days on the water. Moetapu Bay Bliss is a haven for nature lovers, offering a symphony of birdsong by day and the calls of moreporks by night under a star-filled sky.

What are you waiting for? Book this lovely retreat and have an unforgettable escape in the scenic Marlborough Sounds!

Absolutely excellent property for our needs. So much space and the table tennis table and pool table were used by all of us daily! We were visiting friends in Linkwater so perfect location. View from the deck is incredible, perfect place to sit and have breakfast.
