Great base from which to explore the region.
Clean and tidy property. Enjoyed being able to open up the doors to the deck area and dine outdoors. Was under the misconception we could see or be closer to the water. However, it was a perfect base to explore the nearby bays and beaches, which were stunning (and at times we had them all to ourselves!). Four adults in the house made it a tight squeeze on the two small couches in the lounge for tv movie nights in (minor niggle). But we appreciated the board games and had a competitive fun game of scrabble one night!

Absolutely magical stay
We had the most wonderful stay at Martin’s beautiful property. He has thought of everything (including plasters which I needed after cutting my finger while preparing Christmas lunch, haha!) and his home is immaculate. The location is fantastic, about 10 mins walk to the beach. Martin is such a great host and the property is so peaceful. He recommended Bayside cafe and we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast there. We can’t wait to go back to this little piece of paradise. Highly recommend!

Weekend away for birthday.
Great location with a short trip from Auckland. Not by the beach but close enough to meet our needs. Close to Matakana and the market with great place’s to dine. Host Martin is awesome and very helpful with tips of things to do. Very clean, well appointed it’s certainly a great destination for a long weekend away.
