Testimonials

"Thank you very much for the fantastic stay. The warm and friendly family atmosphere made Almond House my home away from home. I'll always remember the very comfy beds, the nice clean kitchen and the absolutely lovely backyard. I definitely will recommend this place to everyone I meet!"

"Thanks to a happy chance, we 3 American girls ended up here at the Almond House for a night... and then another, and another. Fiona and Paul were nothing but helpful and cheerful - never could've made it to Abel Tasman (or the grocery store) without them! Thanks for the great stay and experience."
