Arcadia Motel

On Nelson’s Tahunanui shore, just a short walk or 2-minute drive from Tahunanui Beach Reserve and about 500 m from Tahuna Beach. Minutes from Burrell Park, Natureland Zoo and Nelson Fun Park, and within easy reach of Nelson Golf Links, Trafalgar Park and the city centre. Great for families and golfers looking for a relaxed base near beachside attractions and weekend markets.

On-site tennis courts, picnic and barbecue areas, concierge and a tour desk make it easy to get out and explore Rabbit Island, local trails and weekend markets. Free unlimited high-speed fibre Wi‑Fi and free self parking keep practical needs covered—plus babysitting/childcare is available for families (surcharge).
