The perfect hideaway

A fabulous oasis tucked away with nature, we enjoyed the peaceful tranquility on offer for a 2 day stay. The hosts attention to detail is superb and we would recommend this spot to anyone seeking peace and solitude in a beautiful setting.

A magical Christmas break!

We spent 7 nights at Moana Cove and felt like we had been transported to a far away island, except it was just a hop, skip and a jump away! We loved walking through the bush to beaches, kayaking through the mangroves, walking through Mansion House, visiting the boat club for a meal is a must! And lazy sunny afternoons reading and watching the tide go in and out. Sharon and Rob were great hosts, giving us privacy but always incredibly helpful if we needed anything. Hope to be back!

Relax and take in the view from your private front lawn

Private paradise

It is not often you find a place that exceeds expectations but this is one of them. I won't spoil the suprise for you but if you want quiet - apart from birds - a view and comfort near the Tawharanui park sanctuary, this is it.

Great Place, Great time

We enjoyed our stay very much, the place was very clean and pretty and location was great. Couple minor things like the washing machine didn't work but overall experience for me and my family was wonderful. We all had a great time staying here.
