Glenwai has fully insulated walls with double glazed windows and blinds. The heat pump keeps the rooms cosy in winter and cool in summer. It is very private, sunny and quiet. It fronts on to Tasman Bay with lovely quiet surroundings. The extensive gardens host native birds plus Molly our Lab Huntaway cross who is very friendly. Good wifi and Netflix.
I look forward to hosting guests in my well appointed accommodation. I am available to assist with any queries you may have and are very happy to have a chat.
Glenwai is 2.2kms from town. It's right beside a lovely estuary walk that leads out on to the main beach. Motueka river nearby is lovely and clean for swimming and kayaking. Kahurangi and Able Tasman National Parks are within 30 kms from Glenwai. Kayaking and Kite boarding on the inlet when the tide is in. The golf course is 500m away.
