The Saxton had everything we needed. We were doing a kayak and hiking tour in Abel Tasman National Park and stayed before and after our tour. Our flight arrived late, but the owners were there to greet us after the normal reception hours, even having their chef prepare an amazing dinner for us.
The rooms were very clean and comfortable.
The owners were lovely, full of information and recommendations.
We'll definitely stay there again during our next trip to Abel Tasman.

I had a wonderful stay at this inn. The staff was helpful and friendly, and it's conveniently located near the main road and across from the sports park. The room was spacious and clean. It's obvious that the owners and staff take pride in the property, and I truly enjoyed chatting with them during my stay! I will be back to Nelson next year and will definitely return to Saxton Lodge!
