Selah Retreat - Peaceful with a stunning view!

Selah, means ‘A Time to Pause and Think’. An apt name for this beautiful home in a quiet yet stunning location. Located in Nelson's premier beach side suburb, with exceptional views over Tahunanui Beach & Tasman Bay, this home offers peace & privacy, all with a tremendous wow factor! Walk to the beach, local eateries & craft brew pubs, or simply recline in the spa and enjoy the view. Tasman Bay's outdoor playground and National Parks are at your fingertips! Please note, our house is not available for corporate bookings.

Reviews: Our house has been occupied by short term guests for the past six years. So we thought we'd share some of their reviews:

Exceptional Views over Tasman Bay Tahuna Beach! Lovely home and suitable for 3 couples , all with own amenities, plus one room downstairs. Plenty of seating. Exceptionally sunny in living areas and main bedroom. Wonderful to just sit on the decking and take in the views, and the activities on the water. Also close to walkway, down to the beach. Recommend.

The house is wonderful and has a very complete equipment. Especially the view over the bay was impressive. Thank you for the nice days!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The house was well presented, well equipped , beautiful and clean, a great place for a group of good friends to gather. Thankyou

Great stay Great place for us to stay as two family groups, too busy to enjoy the spa but the views are fantastic! Thanks we had a lovely time. Too busy to use the spa but enjoyed the view everyday!

Heavenly ! peaceful, inviting, very comfortable home. loved the hot pool, missing it already . would not hesitate to recommend or to return to , when hosting overseas visitors. OUR SHANGRILA. Can recommend as a top property to stay in with everything you could wish for . A great place to entertain overseas visitors in our beautiful nz . with thanks.

The home has a million dollar view of the Nelson beach area and the hot tub provided some relaxing moments after being out and active all day. Overall had a great time and found everyone accommodating and helpful.

We were absolutely thrilled with our accommodation in Nelson, Selah. The house was everything we were expecting and more. Stunning location, beautifully appointed home, spotlessly clean on arrival and everything we needed for our stay was provided. We will certainly recommend this beautiful and luxurious accommodation. Cheers

For somewhere with expansive and ever-changing sea views, this lovely house excels. Well-equipped, and with many thoughtful touches, this house can accommodate an extended family or number of friends. It is a real privilege to stay in this home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your lovely place with that amazing view - thank you. It provided a wonderful venue for our family reunion, with two of us from Australia and three from England. The three bedrooms and three bathrooms accommodated us beautifully and the well-equipped kitchen enabled the preparation of some memorable meals together

Views amazing and house lovely clean and tidy. Great place would definitely come back. Thanks

This is a lovely property with stunning views over Tahunanui Beach and beyond. The standard of decor and furniture in the house is very high, and the spa is a great touch. Would definitely stay again if in the Nelson region.

Thank you for a wonderful stay at Selah Beach view in Nelson, the house was everything we expected and more, very tidy, and well equipped, we had a great break away. The views from the lounge and deck were absolutely spectacular! We will definitely be back.

All fantastic - we loved the house and the views and will highly recommend thanks.

We had an amazing family time at Selah Beach View and are very happy with the service you provided. On the sunny days we had nice walks along the beach and on the rainy day it was cosy to stay inside. The property offers sufficient privacy for all guests, is well maintained, comes with all the necessary equipment, and has a cosy vibe to it. If we were to come back to Nelson, we would definitely consider this place again.

We absolutely loved it Beautiful house stunning view and the spa just finished it off I’m already planning my next stay!

Beautiful home
We had a great time staying at this beautiful home. The view was stunning and it had everything we needed. There’s a path down to the beach that’s right beside the home, about 10ish minutes, fairly good incline on the way back but not too much trouble. Overall a wonderful spot!
