Great house on beautiful Palm Beach

It is a wonderful house with great afternoon sun and sunset views overlooking Palm beach. Steps down to the beach make it a fantastic place to stay.

Family trip to Waiheke

The property looked nicer than in the photos. Just a few minutes walk from the house to the beach though it started to get slippery midway when it was wet. Received quick response from Penny. Severine was very welcoming when we were there for the check in. We had a wonderful stay at the house!!! Love to stay here again in the future!!!

We brought good friends from Australia to this wonderful spot. The kids spent the entire time roaming the beach and surrounds. A gorgeous house and view with everything you could possibly need.

Gorgeous property with stunning views. Very well appointed, left extremely clean and tidy.

Absolutely perfect for our weekend away, a lot of fun and laughter shared as we admired the stunning view and took walks down the private access onto Palm beach. Enjoyed sitting out by the fire one of the nights. Was a little bit of luxury for our weekend away. Would definitely recommend and love to stay again.

A fabulous place to stay with friends for a wonderful weekend away. Very comfortable and a great location. We made good use of the fireplace and enjoyed walking in the local area. (If you're walking down to the beach, use the stairs a little way along the road instead of the path straight down from the house - especially if it's wet!)

The Matapana house is the ultimate vacation home.

The Matapana house is the ultimate vacation home. No attention to detail was missed and is very kid friendly. This is a home we would return for years to come with friends and family. The location was perfect for us as we did not want to be in the center of town. Only 10 minutes away by car. We wanted the relaxation and privacy of a soft beach in walking distance. The view from the top floor was outstanding. A hidden oasis

This is Waiheke Island and NZ at it's absolute best.

This is Waiheke Island and NZ at it's absolute best. I bought a small group of friends over who were visiting from overseas. We kept having to pinch ourselves to check we weren't dreaming. A beautiful and stylish house, with walking track to Palm Beach - and the view is magnificent. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and recommend it to anyone.

A beautiful, well appointed property that catered extremely well for our group of ten. So many lovely touches - the outdoor fireplace was left ready for lighting, a welcome gift, towels on the beds - all combined with amazing views, and a gorgeous house for a perfect stay. There's a fish and chip shop and dairy in walking distance and the beach is a pleasant walk down through the bush, down the hill. Highly recommend this property.
