The crystal clear waters that fill the swimming pool at the Punga Cove Resort where guests can sit back on the deck while taking in some rays from the New Zealand sunshine while enjoying the scenery of the Marlborough Sounds. The accommodations here are very classy with a few choices of the type of rooms or cottages you require.
Chalets are set back amongst the beautiful wilderness where privacy is not an issue and the scenery overlooking Marlborough Sounds is spectacular. Family chalets, lodge accommodations, studio rooms and elegant apartments are other options at the Punga Cove Resort.
Around the pool, there are huts where you can enjoy the shade as you watch the brilliant colored water lap up against the coastline on the South Island of New Zealand. Take a stroll along the beach, sea kayak around the islands of the Marlborough Sounds in search of dolphins, fish or sit back and take in the amazing scenery that New Zealand has to offer. ... continue below the picture...
