This stunning suite is named after William Sadlier, 1912 – 1934, who was the 4th Anglican Bishop of Nelson. This Luxury Suite is one of the smaller suites available but is no less opulent than all the rest. With a fully stocked kitchenette and double sink bathroom with jacuzzi bath, at just over 60sqm it is hardly small! The bedroom is an open plan with a fireplace and seating to watch TV. The benefit of this Luxury Suite is you can choose to sit in a comfy chair or snuggle in the King bed while the fire roars and your favourite TV show plays. The bedroom can also be configured with twin beds.
The Facilities
Pihopa Retreat is set in 5.5 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens, giving you plenty of space to relax and wander. The luxurious suites provide a very comfortable home away from home. Large spacious villas with a bedroom and lounge area to relax in or you can venture outside to soak up the atmosphere on the balcony where you are often joined by cheeky fantails, whilst watching weka and quails running across the lawn.
Each suite has it’s own kitchenette with Nespresso machine and we provide a Chef cooked breakfast for you to enjoy before heading out on your days adventure.
Fibre wifi and internet enabled televisions are provided.
Onsite you have access to bikes to get you into town or for the more adventurous enjoy a leisurely cycle on the Great Taste Trail along a sparkling coast and through picturesque countryside dotted with local art galleries, vineyards and restaurants.
The heated swimming pool is available for use during the summer ( or with prior notice during the winter months). The Spa pool is available all year round and is an amazing spot at night to enjoy stargazing.

Beautiful place! Wonderful reception & a big thank you to Sarah. She’s so thoughtful and accommodating. We had an amazing time here and wished we could have stayed a little longer. Hope to be back soon in the near future.

Sarah, thanks for your wonderful hospitality. Pihopa brings me such joy. The grounds are truly beautiful and provide such inspiration. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here at Pihopa and my time in Nelson.
The Eaton Suite provided such respite. I feel at peace leaving here, you thought of every detail. Thanks again.

Thanks Sarah & staff for a wonderful stay. We loved everything about our time here at Pihopa Retreat. There were so many great extras that we weren’t expecting. If I come back to Nelson, I am definitely staying here.
Anita & Cameron, USA
What a very special spot in the world you have created. It is just what we needed to rest and recover from our epic journey. We so looked forward to our time with Eve in the evenings before going to dinner. Everything about the cottage is perfection. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Don & Debbie, USA
Sarah was an amazing hostess. The place is wonderful with incredible attention to detail but the thoughtfulness of incredible hospitality and being like family. One of the nicest places we have ever stayed and can’t wait to not only come back but also stay friends with Sarah and her family.

To make it short… This is one of the most beautiful places we have ever been. Great owner, great staff – people make the difference! You all do a great job, and more than this.

…Everything you do has helped make our wedding perfect. The venue is, in my opinion, unbeatable. The chapel is divine, the gardens are the perfect backdrop and the reception area!… To be able to have the whole event in one luxurious package! We can’t thank you enough. Sarah and your team made our wedding perfect.
Debbie & Richie, Nelson
Was lovely to return to this beautiful place, our family visiting from overseas loved their stay too. Simply can’t wait to stay again. All the best.

We had an amazing time … we’ve been struggling to come up with anything that we could suggest to have made our stay better. Thanks.
Andrew and Juliana
Thank you Sarah for your amazing hospitality. We couldn’t have asked for a more memorable stay and start to our trip exploring this gorgeous region. It was a shame we couldn’t fully appreciate the garden – but what great work. It’s going to look absolutely stunning when done and in full bloom. We look forward to returning in the future! All the best!!
Love Debbie & Dylan

Mark & Margie, Wellington
A hidden gem close to central Nelson where we stayed for 2 nights. Pihopa is a quiet secluded haven yet with a view of the bay. We loved our suite which was furnished to the highest standard with great attention to detail and it even had a gas fire which made it so cosy. Home from home! Sarah was a wonderful host who made sure we had everything we needed. We wish we had stayed longer.
