Paulina’s place was above and beyond! I can’t say I was expecting much for the affordable price but once I was welcomed onto the property I felt cared for and safe. The apartment was spacious and well equipped. It was the perfect place to wait out a storm running through Nelson. There are walking trails just a few blocks away and it is just a short distance from downtown. I highly recommend anyone stays in the villa! It was awesome!

Wonderful friendly and helpful hostess. Complementary chocolate was such a lovely touch.
Room is beautifully set out and the deck with pond and surroundings are absolutely lovely.
Was quiet and inviting.
Let downs were that the beds arent particularly comfortable but realise thats a matter of taste.
No sugar- note that the coffee provided was lovely though.
Shower floods quite bad and the head will not stay flat, it flicks upright. Found no way to tighten in in place.
Cleanliness as far as dusting etc could be improved.
These are minor inconvenience that are easily rectified.
Overall would definitely return!

Memorable Stay

My stay was a very pleasant one. I was very warmly received by the hostess who made me feel very much at home in the beautifully restored villa. The room for a single person is very adequate, spacious, well presented and comfortable including TV, fridge and tea and coffee making facilities and a heater. The single bed is also very comfortable. The breakfast supplied each morning in the dining room was beautifully presented and the food offered excellent. The omelettes were yummy! The shared washroom is very spacious, adequate and clean. There is also safe off street parking available.

The Joya Garden Cottage is a gem. Such a great find. Large private accommodation in a lovely garden with a pond, porch, hammock and a well equipped studio kitchen. The owner is extremely accommodating and helpful with recommendations for things to see and places to eat. We are so glad we stayed here.

A hidden gem in Nelson

We absolutely loved this villa studio in Nelson run by Paulina and her family The room is the lower part of the house all of the furnishings and fittings were of good quality and individual it was so peaceful There was a lovely private sitting area where we watched the sun go down We walked into town but it is a good strech and could easily be done by car All in all a good choice for our first night on the South Island

Paris end of Nelson

Dutch born Paulina and her sons are very friendly and welcoming hosts.
Nestled in the foothills of Nelson near the beautiful Fairfield House, their hotel is located in the \"Paris end\" of Nelson.
The hotel is quite unique with peaceful views of the surrounding ranges.
It is well located - a ten minute walk to the centre of Nelson and about half an hour walk to the \"Centre of New Zealand\" monument.
If you love arts and crafts and fine food you will love Nelson and Paulina's recommendations are usually spot on.

Great location relative to downtown

Stayed for five nights. Close enough to downtown to walk to activities but without the noise of a downtown location. Very peaceful, great room, great breakfasts, great host. Only reason not a 5 overall rating was TV was antenna only with 0 channels without significant reception issues. More significant for as we were there five nights. Otherwise exceptional!

Fantastic hospitality and experience

We booked the garden studio for a couple of nights before and after walking the Abel Tasman track. The studio was really spacious for 2 people, very private and serene. Paulina was an excellent host, friendly, knowledgeable and extremely accommodating.
The studio had it's own deck that overlooked the pond, a well equipped kitchenette, a fire and bathroom. It was lovely to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of running water from the water features outside.
Breakfast in the main house on the day we left was great. An amazing variety of different foods to try.
