Great location, comfortable and cool vibe to the rooms. Easy walk to dining and groceries. Cherie, the manager was fantastic. Very engaging and fun, with hand delivered breakfast to our rooms, and got us a cab when we checked out. I’d give a 5.5 stars if I could 😎

Spent two nights with my wife. Staff was very nice and helpful in providing information about property and the town. We really enjoyed the restaurants and shopping in town which is walkable from the Sails. Room was modern and comfortable. Very nice shower in the bathroom.

This is an amazing property. The rooms are beautifully decorated, comfortable beds, and have everything you need to cook if you wanted to. There are lots of great restaurants walkable with plenty of shopping and things to do. What makes this property so special is the couple that runs the property. They were amazing. They were so very helpful in telling us about the town and giving us recommendations of things to do. I highly recommend this property.

Best Motel that we stayed in during our trip from the UK to New Zealand. Centrally located in Nelson and staff friendly, helpful and extremely attentive for choice of restaurants. Only an hour away from Abel Tasman. Breakfasts served in room, on time and ham and cheese omelette was best I have ever tasted.

We stayed for a few days and couldn’t be happier with our accommodation at Sails. The room was full of everything we needed, even herbal teas and coffee machine - real milk each day too. It was convenient to shops and restaurants and the the owners were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend
