Nautilus is a lovely property with quick access to Abel-Tasman National Park, grocery, restaurants/pubs and shopping! Both of our 2 reserved rooms were large, clean & quiet with very comfortable beds. Fluffy bathroom towels were hung on a heated towel rack. Kitchenette included cooktop, microwave, frig and was fully stocked with lots of serving plates/cups and cookware. Balcony was a nice bonus for private relaxation. Free on-site car parking. Owners are very welcoming and strive to provide guests with a great experience. Several wonderful dining choices nearby. The EG Eatery offers an extraordinary menu in a romantic atmosphere. The Sprig & Fern is perfect for beer selection and pub food. Carpe Diem!

We had a lovely stay, the owners couldn’t do enough to help, we booked for a second night and they rejigged things so that we could stay in our room. It’s on the state highway but the noise wasn’t noticeable at night.
