Matakana - Nice Quiet Retreat

Had a great time, easy access to all local attractions including sculpturium and markets. Pool was heated, grounds well kept and units are all fairly private from each other. Could possibly have utilised a small stove/oven otherwise super helpful host and cosy getaway.

Really lovely and relaxing spot

This is an awesome location, and an easy driving distance to Matakana. The quality of the property was awesome. The bathrooms were a little cold in winter, but otherwise it would have been 5 stars. We will be back.

Peaceful, restful location

Was a pleasant 4 day spent here over a very busy time of year. Was great to escape the hustle of Matakana each day. Great location near to lots of great beaches. Accomodation was cleaned daily and whilst showing age on places was very cleaned and tidy. Would highly recommend.
