A delightful 2 day get away.
A lovely visit in a wonderful location. The only negative was that the walls are thin so you can hear what the neighbours are doing. Otherwise the hosts are wonderful and very obliging. A delightful 2 day get away.

Great location and breakfast in the morning. It was all so special and I will be thinking of those pancakes for a long time. The hosts were also so kind and welcoming; they even held some of our bags when we went into Abel Tasman for the next night to make sure they were safe. Recommend this B&B to anyone in the area.

Beautiful Property, Great Hosts
This is a fabulous place. A beautifully built and maintained property set in a vineyard with a pond and fruit/olive trees. The location is next to Mapua, which is a cute coastal town, and the amazing Abel Tasman park. But what really makes the experience are the hosts, Jeannette (sp?) and Paul. They are amazingly friendly, informative and helpful. They also have two beautiful dogs that they are happy to share with visitors (or not - your choice). The only slight problem is that the guest rooms are close to each other and a little noisy, but a little mutual consideration, and this issue disappears. You'll love it!

Host was extremely friendly. Nice Sitting outside. Room a bit small - not appropriate for doing some business work. Reading in the bed nearly impossible due to nice but not very efficient lamps.

This was the best experience on our trip. Jeanette and Paul is wonderful hosts that made our stay very special. They are lovely people that treasure hospitality the most. The room was spotless cleaned and the breakfast was delivered to our room every morning by Paul, and it contained freshly baked bread, scones, crossiants and whatever we liked. We had a jacuzzi just outside our room which we could use how much we wanted. The wineyard itself is just stunning. I have never seen anything that beautiful. As guests we were very welcome to stroll around the wineyard as much as we wanted. The location is just perfect, right between Nelson and Abel Tasman. We just loved our stay and want to recommend it to everyone!

Lovely Lodge
Pine Hill Lodge is located on a stunningly beautiful vineyard. It is a small and quiet with just a few rooms. The owners, Jeanette and Paul are extremely nice and helpful with recommendations for places to see. Paul served a choice of continental breakfast dishes in our room or outside. The lodge is a few minutes away from the Mapua Warf which has some lovely lunch and dinner restaurants. They are also a short drive from Abel Tasman park, Golden Bay, and Nelson which makes it a great location for visitors wanting to see a variety of the Nelson area’s lovely locations.

Great B&B in an idyllic setting
We thoroughly enjoyed our four nights at Pine Hill Lodge. Our room was lovely—very comfortable bed with beautiful bedding, a view of the vineyard outside our French doors, immaculate bathroom and kitchenette, and the best WiFi we have experienced during our three weeks in NZ. We ordered from a variety of continental breakfast foods that were delivered to our door each morning right at the times we requested. The apples on their two trees were ripe and we were invited to pick some to eat. Paul and Jeannette also gave us suggestions for activities in the area. They were excellent hosts. We couldn’t have asked for more!

Wonderful stay in the vineyards
Pine Hill Lodge is an awesome retreat in Ruby Bay. The 3 guest rooms are located in a brand new guest wing and have all the amenities for a perfect getaway. There are some common areas, including a courtyard with tables/chair and a BBQ. And of course an outside hot tub surrounded by vineyards. Each room has its own patio area where one can enjoy the continental breakfast served with freshly baked bread and scones, along with delicious homemade jellies and jams. The proprietors are extremely welcoming and ready to assist with trips around the area. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful stay at the Pine Hill Lodge a few weeks ago. The lodge was brand new, clean, views were breathtaking, and the owners were extremely helpful. Jeanette was so helpful and made us feel at home. I would recommend the lodge to anyone heading to the area and would love to visit again.

A little slice of Paradise
I can't fully express just how wonderful and lovely the Pine Hill Lodge is. My boyfriend and I only stayed one night and arrived late (9pm). However it was one of the most memorable nights of our trip. We arrived and were welcomed like old friends by the owner (i feel awful for forgetting her name). We had a beautiful room which was clean and a very good size with a pleasant en-suite bathroom and small kitchenette with fridge and cooking utensils. It was a clear night so we jumped in the outdoor hot tub spa for an hour or so, and boy are we glad we did! It was the most beautiful night sky i've ever seen with the milky-way beautifully clear, shooting stars left right and centre, we were even paid a visit by the ISS, topping it all off so wonderfully. Then had a great nights sleep in a very comfortable bed. The next morning we were treated (and I really do mean treated) to a wonderful freshly made breakfast, with everything from the bread and croissants to the granola being homemade that morning. My boyfriend and I don't usually eat breakfast but we simply couldn't refuse such a wonderful spread of yummy food. We ate our breakfast in the morning sun on the courtyard and even managed a cuddle with the owners two lovely dogs. All in all we didn't want to leave and wish we could have stayed a couple more nights at the very least!

Amazing views of the vineyard
This B and B was the nicest I have seen in my 3 weeks in new Zealand. it is located on an actively maintained (and amazingly groomed) farm and vineyard. I was able to see the pinot gris vines and the ocean from my room. The hosts had an amazing attention to detail, from the home-baked bread in the morning, to the hot tub, to the beautiful and secluded picnic area by the pond.

A dream location!
My wife and I stayed here for our first two nights of our honeymoon trip in New Zealand. We absolutely loved it. It was quiet and beauitiful, but surrounding by so many wonderful activities to do within 45 minutes driving distances. We would recommend this to anyone... Next time we are back on the South Island, we'll be staying here for a longer preiod of time! P.S... A wonderful breakfast is in store as well!

Good place to stay on Ruby Bay
We stayed for two nights at the Pine Hill Lodge - the house is a very nice quiet location within a small vineyard. The room is modern, very clean, and very comfortable. The location to Mapua, and easy access to SH60 and Nelson and the rest of the Tasman region was appreciated.

Beautiful location
We can highly recommend Pine Hill Lodge. We spent two nights there - the location is fantastic and the hosts Jeanette and Paul go out of their way to make sure they have provided everything that a guest could need. We especially liked the fact that we were able to enjoy the benefits of a B and B, but also have a very private space to ourselves. Many thanks, J & P.

Private and discreet
We hate B & Bs where you have to be involved with the hosts and interact constantly. With Pinehill Lodge we were left alone whenever we wanted to be but they were on hand whenever we needed something. Very knowledgeable of the local area and dining options plus local attractions.Breakfast (included) options were extensive and prepared well. A great location nearby Mapua with leisure activities easily available plus not far from the Abel Tasman National Park. But more than anything it was the secluded spot within the vines which really left an impression. Would recommend very highly and we will stay with them again.

Séjour merveilleux, un endroit paisible au milieu des vignes et avec une vue sur la baie. Janet et Paul vous accueille avec discrétion mais de manière prévenante.

Peaceful indulgence among the wines
The rooms are beautifully appointed and very comfortable. Each room had its own little sitting area outside and in addition there was a shared patio which was perfect for the delicious breakfast. The room was very clean when we arrived and they kept it that way during our stay. The service was really good, when the hosts learned that we would have a bit of time in Hong Kong going home they prepared a suggestion for how to spend the time there.
