Perfect paradise

Pauline was amazing at communicating during the Auckland lockdown where we had to keep changing dates and so accomodating. The house was perfect for us to celebrate a 70th birthday with plenty of space and different entertaining areas. The view at high tide is breathtaking and we really wouldn’t have had to leave the house at all. We loved the table tennis and games provided. It was exactly what we needed - thank you from Linda and guests

A lovely place to stay with plenty to do .. sadly had to leave early and didn’t get to have the spa with glasses of wine but we enjoyed the birds (wow) and the trees. A beautiful setting. Our dog loved it too!

Tranquil & relaxing

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time there and found the place relaxing with fantastic sea views. Plenty of activities to do with the place being well equipped. The spa topped it off and the natural bush made for a tranquil setting. Thank you for opening up your home to us.

Beautiful Seaside/ Bush Retreat with a cook's kitchen!

We loved the incredible view of the water and the gorgeous bush surrounding the bach. Watching the kererus and tuis flit around while the tide goes in and out, creates an incredible natural rhythm to one's daily activities. The kitchen was very well outfitted with all that we could want to bake and cook and the espresso machine was such a lovely surprise! We enjoyed the spa after playing in the bay and also under the stars at night. The furnishings were lovely but more importantly, (travelling with children), they were sturdy and well-suited to a space that is used by many different people. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of warm blankets and heaters if needed so we were all very comfortable during our stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Peaceful with everything you need kids loved it

We were a family/friends group with children across wide age group - mostly teenagers, the property was well set up with plenty to keep everyone occupied, it was peaceful with lovely views, and not too far to drive from Auckland with Matakana Markets and local OBV vineyard a must do. Thank you for the perfect weekend escape. We would love to do this trip again.
