An amazing enclave you don’t even realize you’re inside a bus sling little city. Luxurious accommodations with an attentive staff. The food and presentation was great. We wanted for nothing they had everything the heart desires. I will recommend to all my friends headed to New Zealand.

We had a wonderful stay at the Pilopa retreat. Sarah and her team did not miss a beat and did everything humanly possible to provide the utmost service and comfort. I could go on and on, we have gone home with very special memories of this stay. I would book again in a heartbeat if we make it back to Nelson one day.

I had an outstanding retreat with exceptional service! Luxury and comfort are evident in every detail. Sarah and her team are amazing—friendly, attentive, and thoughtful. The gluten-free breakfast options were superb. The pre-dinner protocol is a fantastic idea to share with others. This is a must-visit in Nelson!

I cannot say enough about what a wonderful experience it was to stay at Pihopa Retreat. I loved everything about it from the gorgeous accommodations, the wonderful amenities, and the beautiful surroundings. The owner, Sarah, met us as we arrived and made sure that our experience was as comfortable as could be. Indeed it was. Small, friendly, luxurious, beautiful suites. From the amazing breakfasts in the beautiful chapel to the drinks and canapés each evening in the pool house. There is also much to do in Nelson, New Zealand from exploring Able Tasman National Park to wine tasting in the area to exploring the many artists who make Nelson their home to so much more.

Beautiful cottages and setting. Wonderful accomodations. The baked goods were magnificent and the staff so pleasant and friendly. The grounds were lovely. The gym is well equipped and so clean for those of us who like to work out while on vacation.
