Greens Motel sits down a secluded tree-lined driveway at 36 Golf Haven Way in Annesbrook, Nelson, with Nelson Golf Club a two-minute walk away, Tahunanui Beach ten minutes on foot, and the airport close by. Upstairs units look over the golf course to the sea; there are open-plan studios and one- and two-bedroom units with kitchenettes, some with spa baths, plus wheelchair-accessible rooms, onsite laundry, a covered BBQ area and off-street parking.
Motels earn their keep with travellers who want more than a hotel room: kitchenettes, space to spread out, guest laundry and parking at the door make longer stays simpler. Near a golf course or beach, it pays to check which way the units face before you book. Regulars heading for the national parks value a base where an early start is easy.
For a getaway or business in Nelson Tasman, Greens Motel puts the golf course, the beach and the airport all within easy walking distance.
