After a scenic drive up the eastcoast of New Zealand, 'Sounds Vista' in Picton is the perfect location to relax and unwind. The warm welcome by Nikki and Brent on our arrival at 'Sounds Vista' was very pleasant. The room was comfortably spacious and modern with a view to die for. The serene town centre is located on the waterfront... More

Sounds Vista has beautifully appointed, spacious and comfortable rooms. Large en-suite with excellent shower. Brent & Nikki are excellent hosts, very welcoming and friendly. Brent & Nikki went out of their way to ensure my stay was comfortable, even going to the trouble of dropping me down to the ferry. The cleanliness of the rooms and their attention to detail... More

Up a hill, yes, but well worth it for the view. Nikki gave us a very warm welcome and the rooms were spacious and the en suite bathrooms ( we travelled with friends) were huge and very modern. A very nice sun terrace at the front, overlooking the town and Queen Charlotte Sound just added to the overall 5 star... More

We had a great time at Brent and Nikki's B&B. The minute I walked in it felt like home. That cosy and warm feeling. I was immediately impressed. The rooms were furnished beautifully, the bathroom was clean, large and spacious and it was great to look out the bedroom window to see the town of Picton ahead. We really enjoyed... More

A lovely house and friendly people, ideal for visitors to Picton and only 5 minutes from the boat dock for trips into the Queen Charlotte Sound. We were very lucky that on the night we stayed, the family were having a barbicue to which we were invited and it was good to spend some time with Brent and Nikki but... More

Sounds Vista is run a husband and wife who have furnished the place to an exceptional standard and I doubt if any other Picton BB could boast such levels of cleanliness and excellent furnishings , it really is top class. It's located out of town which isn't a problem if you have your own transport but you will need to... More

She dropped us of at the Cougarline and we could leave the car and some luggage at the b&b. We had a great walk and could look forward to staying at... More
