About this property

Eco Lux Mapua | Inlet Views, Outdoor Bath & Fire

  • Welcome to Pohutukawa Farm — an Eco Lux loft stay overlooking the Mapua Inlet.

    Set within a reimagined industrial warehouse on our little patch of farmland, it’s spacious, light-filled and a little unexpected. Soaring ceilings, huge windows and industrial bones meet warm, relaxed comfort and beautiful inlet views.

    Throw open the doors, put some music on and settle into a slower rhythm. Cook something delicious in the fully equipped kitchen, pick herbs from the garden, fire up the BBQ or simply sit and watch the inlet change with the tide.

    Then sink into the outdoor bath under the stars, light the outdoor fire, pour something lovely and stay awhile.

    At full tide, take a kayak onto the inlet, grab one of our modern vintage-style bikes and head into Mapua, or do absolutely nothing at all.

    Pohutukawa Farm is Eco Lux with personality — relaxed, a little romantic and made for good food, long soaks, slow mornings and having a really good time.

Wow - truly a unique luxury accommodation with amazing views. It was a little pricier than what we normally spend, but oh so worth it. The online pictures do not do the property justice - even our own photos could not accurately show the highlights. It was only minutes from waterfront shops and restaurants. We highly recommended Rimu with the wine tasting trees and awesome wood fired pizza. The property is also fairly close to the water taxis that will take you to great hikes at Abel Tasman. Our expectations were exceeded!

Perfect spot!

We can’t say enough about how delightful our stay was at Pohutukawa Farm. The space was fantastic and the sunrises and sunsets were some of the best we’ve seen. We enjoyed the privacy, the wonderful design touches, and the location was perfect for our visit to the area. And the friendly sheep was a fun visitor. Lisa was a terrific host!

Beautiful place to stay in

Our family stopped at this place for couple nights. We liked it overall - it is very new apartment with everything you might need. Hosts are great.Several things to keep in mind:- there are steep stairs for one of the beds;- other stairs are hard metal, so slippers are recommended;- couch in the living room can accommodate one kid sleeping.

Divine view! fire fun! exceptional quality!

Relax and unwind from normal life at this exceptional retreat. Why not take an outside bath and enjoy your breakfast, while watching the sun on the distant mountains. Bike into lovely Mapua and explore by car the vineyards, beaches and surrounds. Attention to detail and special treats made us feel truly special, thank you so much.

Perfect weekend getaway.

Modern, clean, tidy & funky home away from home. Everything needed was there and considered by the owners. Great view and amazing to sit in front of the open fire outside into the evening with a nice wine and watch the tide come in up the estuary. Kitchen decked out for foodies, fantastic. Lucky we were able to take our dog too. Lisa's communication is next level without being too much. We'll definitely recommend to friends.

6/5 Stars

Private and quiet, we spent a birthday weekend with the pups and had an amazing stay. Lisa is super friendly and welcomed us warmly when we arrived. Private carparking, BBQ pit with charcoal, firewood, outdoor fireplace, TV in living area and in the mezzanine bedroom, and the level of detail in the place shows it was brilliantly thought out for the comfort of guests. Safety foam on low headway areas. There was even a lamb outside who was very friendly and polite. 6/5 stars!
